Act 1 M6

The document explains the difference between univariate and bivariate data, providing examples of bivariate data such as hours of study and exam scores. It identifies independent and dependent variables in various scenarios, including the effects of water on plant height and stress management training on sick days. Additionally, it presents a sampling distribution of sample means from monthly incomes of workers, calculating the mean and standard error of the sample means.

ACTIVITY 1

1. Differentiate univariate data from bivariate data.


 Univariate data involves only one variable and focuses on analyzing it
while bivariate data involves two variables and examines the relationship
between them.
2. Five examples of bivariate data
 Hours of study and exam scores
 Kilometers and calories burn
 Age and death
 Income and expense
 People and sales
3. Determine the independent and dependent variables in the following situations:
a. The height of bean plants depends on the amount of water they receive.
 Independent Variable: Amount of water
 Dependent Variable: Height of bean plants
b. Spending time with a family dog decreases the amount of stress someone is
feeling.
 Independent Variable: Time spent with the dog
 Dependent Variable: Amount of stress
c. Eating breakfast in the morning increases the ability to learn in school.
 Independent Variable: Eating breakfast
 Dependent Variable: Ability to learn
d. A comprehension test was given to students after they had studied textbook
material either in silence or with the television turned on.
 Independent Variable: Study environment (silence or with TV)
 Dependent Variable: Comprehension test scores
e. Workers at a company were assigned to one of two conditions: One group
completed a stress management training program; another group did not
participate in the training. The number of sick days taken by these workers was
examined for the next 2 months.
 Independent Variable: Participation in the stress management training
program
 Dependent Variable: Number of sick days

ACTIVITY 1

1. The following are the monthly income of 7 workers working in a different companies:
15 000, 18 000, 19 000, 21 000, 22 500, 24 000, and 28 000 (in pesos). A sample with
size 5 is chosen to determine the average monthly income of the workers.

a) Construct a sampling distribution of the sample means.

(18000, 19000, 22500, 24000, 28000) 22300
(18000, 21000, 22500, 24000, 28000) 22700
(19000, 21000, 22500, 24000, 28000) 22900

b) Find the mean of the sample means.


 21,071.43 pesos
c) Compute the standard error of the sample means.
 1,766.47 pesos
