Discussion:
I. Random Sampling
Selecting samples from a population using chance methods or random numbers
from the table of random numbers.
Parameter - a measure or characteristics obtained by using all the data values in
the population.
Statistics - a measure or characteristics obtained by using only the data values
in a sample.
I. Sampling Distributions
Definition: The probability distribution for the values of the sample statistic obtained
when random samples are repeatedly drawn from a population.

Examples:
1. Suppose a population consists of scores of 3 students in a particular quiz
recorded as follows: 3, 5, and 7. By using sampling distribution, estimate the
population mean, variance, and standard deviation using a random sample size

Now, we can say that each of the sample variance represent an estimate of the
population variance. The sample variance is equal to the population variance.
Therefore, the variance is an unbiased estimator wherein it gives an accurate statistic
that’s used to approximate population parameter.
Now, we can say that each of the sample Standard Deviation do not represent an
estimate of the population Standard Deviation. The sample Standard Deviation is not
equal to the population Standard Deviation. Therefore, the variance is a biased
estimator.

NORMAL DISTRIBUTION
LEARNING COMPETENCIES:
1. The learners must be able to describe a normal random variable and its characteristics
2. The learners must be able to draw a normal curve
3. The learners must be able to state the properties of a normal curve.
LEARNING OUTLINE:
1. Definition of a normal curve
2. Properties of a normal curve
DISCUSSION:
Remember the discussion about Measures of Skewness and Measures of Kurtosis? We have
already introduced there the concept of a bell-shaped curve called the normal curve. Statistically,
the most important distribution is the normal distribution. Most statisticians in the modern era
use normal distribution because most random variables are either normally distributed or
approximately normally distributed and most hypotheses can easily be tested under the
assumption of normality.
Direction: Illustrate and explain the different properties of the normal curve.
Use the space below.

LEARNING COMPETENCIES:
1. The learners must be able to compute probabilities using a standard
normal distribution table.
2. The learners must be able to convert a normal random variable to a
standard normal random variable.
3. The learners must be compute percentiles of a standard normal curve
LEARNING OUTLINE:
1. Standard Normal Curve
2. Properties of a standard normal curve
DISCUSSION:
A normal distribution has a symmetric bell-shaped curve with one peak. This is
characterized by its mean, the center and the peak, and standard deviation, the distance away
from the center. Statistically speaking, this is the most important distribution but it is very hard to
examine normal distribution because it is hypothetical. It means that there is no distribution of
data that perfectly matches the norma distribution. So , a special type of normal distribution
called the standard normal distribution can be examined in its place.
A standard normal distribution has a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 1. A normal
random variable can be converted into a standard normal random variable resulting to a z-score.
A standard normal table lists down the corresponding probabilities of each value of z.
Direction: Find and shade the area under the standard normal curve that lies to:
1. left of z = -2.48
2. left of z = 3.00
3. left of z = 0.99
4. left of z = -1.19
5. left of z = -2.22
6. right of z = -2.48
7. right of z = 3.00
8. right of z = 0.99
9. right of z = -1.19
10. right of z = -2.22
11. between z = 1.31 and z = 1.76
12. between z = -2.55 and z = -1.99
13. between z = 1.43 and z = -2.19
14. between z = 1.12 and z = 3.02
15. between z = 2.41 and z = 2.80

LEARNING COMPETENCIES:
1. The learners must be able to describe the concept of z-score
2. The learners must be able to find the z-score equivalent to the raw score
(x)
3. The learners must be able find the z-score associated with a percentile
4. The learners must be able apply z-score to solve real-life problems.
LEARNING OUTLINE:
1. Standard Score (z-score)
2. Percentile Rank of a standard normal curve.
DISCUSSION:
The z-score let us determine how many units of the standard deviation the raw score is
above or below the mean. The quantity z-score represents the distance between the raw score (x)
and the population mean of the units standard deviation. The z-score is negative when the raw
score is below the mean and positive when the raw score is above the mean. The z-score is zero
when the raw score is equal to the mean.
To compute for the z-score, the formula is: z = x - Mean
SD
Problem # 1: Student A got 65. The section’s mean score is 50 with a standard deviation of 5.
Thus,
z = x - Mean
SD
z = 65- 50
5
z=3
Therefore, the score of student A is 3 standard deviations above the mean.
Problem # 2: Based on a survey, the mean weekly allowance of Grade 11 students of XYZ
University is 750 pesos with a standard deviation of 100 pesos. Assuming that the weekly
allowance is normally distributed, what is the z-score of a student with a weekly allowance of
600 pesos?
z = x - Mean
SD
z = 600- 750
100
z = -1.5
Therefore, the weekly allowance of student A is 1.5 standard deviations below the mean.
Problem # 3: Based on the table below, who performed better, JR or JM? Assume a normal
distribution from two different classes.
STUDENT RAW SCORE (x) Mean Standard Deviation
JR 75 65 4
JM 58 52 2
The z-score of JM is larger than the z-score of JR.Therefore, JM performed better than JR.
PERCENTILE RANK
Problem # 1: Consider a normal distribution with a mean value of 100 and a standard deviation
of 5. Find the value of x:
a. If the area from the mean to the z-score is 17% and the z-score is negative.
b. If the area to the right of the z-score is 15%
Solution:
a. Look for the value of z that has an area of 0.1700 in the z-table. Since the z-
score is negative, therefore z = -0.44
To solve for x:
z = x - Mean
SD
-0.44 = x- 100
5
-2.2 = x - 100
x = 97.8
17 % of the scores in the distribution lies between 97.8 and 100
b. The shaded area is equal to 15%. therefore the area between 0 and z must
be 35%. Look for the value of z that has an area of 0.3500 in the z-table.
Since the z-score is positive, therefore z = 1.04
To solve for x:
z = x - Mean
SD
1.04 = x- 100
5
5.2 = x - 100
x = 105.2
About 15 % of the scores in the distribution is greater than 105.2

Performance Standard: Perform appropriate tests of hypotheses involving the population mean
and population proportion to make inferences in real-life problems in different disciplines.
Hypothesis Testing
Null Hypothesis
The null hypothesis reflects that there will be no observed effect in our experiment. In a
mathematical formulation of the null hypothesis, there will typically be an equal sign. This
hypothesis is denoted by H o.
The null hypothesis is what we attempt to find evidence against in our hypothesis test. We hope
to obtain a small enough p-value that it is lower than our level of significance alpha and we are
justified in rejecting the null hypothesis. If our p-value is greater than alpha, then we fail to reject
the null hypothesis.
If the null hypothesis is not rejected, then we must be careful to say what this means. The
thinking on this is similar to a legal verdict. Just because a person has been declared "not guilty",
it does not mean that he is innocent. In the same way, just because we failed to reject a null
hypothesis it does not mean that the statement is true.
Decisions
The alternative hypothesis uses the symbol and is read as `H-one' or ‘H-a’
H 1∨H a
H 1 : μ 1 ≠ μ 2∨H a : μ1 ≠ μ2
1. Define the populations of interest and restate the research question as null and alternative
hypotheses about the populations.
2. Determine the characteristics of the comparison distribution.
3. Determine the cutoff sample score on the comparison distribution at which the null
should be rejected (typically associated with p = .05).
4. Determine your sample's score on the comparison distribution (i.e., compute your sample
statistic)
5. Compare and make a decision. To reject or not to reject? That is the question!
Alternative Hypothesis
The alternative or experimental hypothesis reflects that there will be an observed effect
for our experiment. In a mathematical formulation of the alternative hypothesis, there will
typically be an inequality, or not equal to symbol. This hypothesis is denoted by either H a
or by H 1.

proportion.
Performance Standard: Perform appropriate tests of hypotheses involving the population mean

HYPOTHESIS TESTING
Assessing the validity of a statement is one important role of statistician. In the field of
education, an administrator would like to know which of the two methods of learning is more
effective. In business, one might want to establish the life span of a sophisticated machine in
order for them to compete the world of highly competitive market. A political analyst would like
to determine the impact of political crisis to the economy. Or, an agriculturist wants to determine
the effect of the different levels of fertilizer and plant spacing to the growth and yield of a certain
upland crops.
Wrong choice of a statistical method can mislead or can give wrong information to the
public or end user. One has to be very careful in assessing the validity of statements in the
decision- making proce4ss.
The following are the steps in hypothesis testing:
1. State the null hypothesis, Ho
2. State the alternative hypothesis, Ha
3. Choose the level of significance, α
4. Determine the test statistic to be used and compute its value based from the sample
measurements, (ex. T-test, Z-test…)
5. Establish the critical region
6. Make a decision: Reject the null hypothesis if the value of the test statistics falls in the
area or rejection
7. Make a decision
Definition of Terms:
15. Hypothesis Testing- is the process of using a variety of statistical tools to analyze data
and ultimately reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis.
16. Statistical Hypothesis- an assertion or conjecture concerning one or more populations.
17. Null Hypothesis (Ho)- the reverse of what the experimenter actually believes and is put
forward to allow the data to contradict it.
18. Alternative Hypothesis (Ha)- the hypothesis that the researcher wishes to support.
19. Level of Significance (α)- the probability of committing a Type I error
20. One- Tailed test of hypothesis- is a test where the alternative hypothesis specifies a one-
directional difference for the parameter of interest.
21. Two- Tailed test of hypothesis- a test where the alternative hypothesis does not specify
a directional difference for the parameter of interest.
22. Probability (P-Value)- also called the observed significance level of a statistical test,
and is the smallest value of α for which Ho can be rejected.
23. Test Statistic- a single number calculated from the sample data
24. Critical Value- a threshold to which the value of the test statistic in a simple is compared
to determine whether or not the null hypothesis is rejected.
25. Rejection Region- consists of values that support the alternative hypothesis and lead to
rejecting Ho.
26. Acceptance Region- consists of values that support the null hypothesis
27. Type I Error- the error of rejecting the null hypothesis when it is true.
28. Type II Error - the error of accepting the null hypothesis when it is false
Step 1: Define the populations and state the null and alternative hypotheses.
o Population 1: Dogs on cartoons (represented by Scooby).
o Population 2: Dogs not on cartoons.
Step 2: Determine the comparison distribution.
o Population distribution of IQ among dogs not on cartoons is known to be
normal and has .
Step 3: Determine the cutoff sample score, also called the critical value,
associated with our probability cutoff (.05).
o ρ=.05 corresponds to a Z-score = 1.64; this is our critical score on the
comparison distribution.
Recall the table of Z-score values from the previous module.
The ρ=.05 is how we represent the top 5 percent of the comparison distribution
as a cutoff point.
The Z-score associated with ρ=.05 at the higher end of the Standard Normal
Curve is 1.64.
Another way of saying this is: the Z-score, 1.64, represents the cutoff point
between the lower 95% (or more
precisely 94.95%) and the top 5% of scores.
Critical Value
In this example, we are saying 95% of the (dogs not on cartoons) population of
IQ scores are below this point.
o Population 2: dogs not on cartoons.
Recall, we are testing whether or not dogs on cartoons (represented by Scooby
Doo) are significantly smarter than dogs not on cartoons.
If we find Scooby's IQ is greater than our cutoff (if Scooby's Z-score is greater
than 1.64) then we have evidence he is significantly `smarter' than dogs not on
cartoons.
Which is to say, evidence that he does not come from population 2, but instead
he represents a different population, namely population 1.
To find the value; look for 1.5 on the left and 0.03 on the top (of the table
linked below) which corresponds to a Z-score of 1.53
Step 5: Compare and make a decision. To reject or not to reject? That is the
question!
Compare our critical (crit) value to our calculated (calc) value (Z-scores or
values)
o
Although a bit confusing, the second is the same as the first and is typically
used when reporting results (e.g., research articles).
o Both indicate that Scooby's IQ was not far enough from the mean of
population 2 to distinguish him as a member of population 1.
o Thus, we have no evidence for population 1 and the idea that dogs on
cartoons are smarter than dogs not on cartoons.
Fail to reject the null hypothesis; we never say we
accept the null or alternative hypothesis.

One-Sample Z-Test
Learning Competencies:
The students will be able to:
1. Define what is one-sample-z-test
2. Solve the z-value
3. Illustrate the critical value and z-value
4. Make a decision.
One-sample z-test is used to test whether the mean of a population is greater than, less
than, or not equal to a specific value. Because the standard normal distribution is used
to calculate critical values for the test, this test is often called the one-sample z-test. The
z-test assumes that the population standard deviation is known. One-sample z-test
assumes that the data are a simple random sample from a population of normally
distributed values that all have the same mean and variance (known). This assumption
implies that the data are continuous and their distribution is symmetric. The calculation
of the z-test proceeds as follows
x́−μ
z=
σ /√n
Where:
x́- mean
µ- claim value
σ -Standard deviation
n- the total number of participants or data
Example 1:
A researcher reports that the average salary of College Deans is more than
63,000 pesos. A sample of 35 college deans has a mean salary of 65,700
pesos at α=0.01, test the claim that the college deans earn more than 63,000
pesos a month. The standard deviation of population is 5,250 pesos
Given:
x́=65,700
µ=63,000
σ =5,250
n= 35 college deans
Solution:
Step 3: Find critical value (identify if it’s a one tailed or two tailed test)
Note: in this problem it is a one tailed test because we use the word
“More than”. Using the table look for the critical value, and are critical value is
2.326
Step 4: solve for z value
x́−μ
z=
σ /√n
´
65,700−63,000
z=
5,250/ √ 35
2,700
z=
887.41
z=3.04

A t-test is any hypothesis test in which the test statistics follows the t-distribution if the
null hypothesis is true.
x́−μ
t=
s/√n
Where:
x́- mean
µ- claim value
s- sample standard deviation
n- the total number of participants or data
Example 1:
In the population, the average IQ is 100. A team of scientist wants to test a new medication to see if it
has either a positive and negative effect on intelligence, or no effect at all. A sample of 30 participants
who have taken the medication has a mean of 140 with standard deviation of 20. Did the medication
affect intelligence? Alpha=0.05
x́=140
µ=100
s=20
n= 30
Solution:
x́−μ
t=
s/√n
140−100
z=
20/ √ 30
