-about 99.7%
It is useful for describing the number of events that will occur during a specific intespecific distance,
area, or volume.
-Poisson Experiment
It is applied when the probability of success are not the same from trial to trial.
-Hypergeometric Experiment
These are random variables that can assume all values between any two specific values
The experiment consists of counting the number of events that will occur during a time or in a specific
distance, area, or volume.
-Poisson Experiment
There are only two possible outcomes for each trial, success and failure
-Binomial Experiment
Five hundred raffle tickets are sold at ₱25 each for three prizes of ₱4,000, ₱2,500, and ₱1,000. After
each prize drawing, the winner ticket is then returned to the collection of tickets. What is the mean or
expected value if a person purchases four tickets?

This is a complete description of all the possible values of the random variable, along with their
associated probabilities.
-Probability Distribution
The normal curve is often called Gaussian distribution
-True
When you roll the two dice, what is the probability that the sum is 9?
-1/9
It represents the numerical value of a simple event of an experiment
-Random variables
Five balls numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 are placed in a box. One is selected, its number is noted and then it
is replaced. If this experiment is repeated many times, find the mean of the numbers on the balls.
-3
It is the set of all possible outcomes of a probability experiment.
-Sample space
is replaced. If this experiment is repeated many times, find the standard deviation of the numbers on
the balls.
-1.41

It is a numerical measure of the likelihood that a specific event will occur.
-Probability
The normal distribution is bell-shaped.
-True
is replaced. If this experiment is repeated many times, find the variance of the numbers on balls.

sales in a Video Center”
-Discrete random variables
The normal distribution is continuous
-True
Determine what type of random variable is represented in the given scenario. “Outcomes in rolling a
pair of dice”
The mean, median and mode have different values in a normal distribution.
- False
The area under the part of a normal curve that lies within one standard deviation of the mean is
-about 68%

month this vintage card will have at most two breakdowns.
-0.2381
The normal distribution curve is symmetric about the mean
-True
What is the probability that the total of two dice will be greater than 9, given that the first die is a 5?
-1/3
The area under the part of a normal curve that lies within two standard deviation of the mean is
-about 95%
The experiment consists of n independent, identical trials
It is commonly referred to as a normal curve, or bell curve.
-Normal Distribution
It is a mapping or list of all values of a random variable to their corresponding probabilities for a given
sample space.
-Probability Distribution
DOLE found that 83% of Filipinos think that having a college education is important to succeed in life. If a
random sample of 7 Filipinos is selected, find the probability that exactly 4 will agree with that
statement.
-0.0816
DOLE found that 83% of Filipinos think that having a college education is important to succeed in life. If a
random sample of 7 Filipinos is selected, find the probability that at most two people will agree with
that statement.
-0.0021
These are random variables that can take on any of the countless number of values in interval.
These are the most important characteristics of any probability distribution.
-Mean and standard deviation
Determine what type of random variable is represented in the given scenario. “Number of television per
household”
Random means that the experiment may result in one of several possible values of the variable.
-True
When you roll the two dice, what is the probability that the sum is 4?
-1/12
These are random variables that can assume only a countable number of values.
It is a measure of the number of standard deviations a particular data point is away from the mean.

defective battery?
