ADVANCED STATISCTICS WITH COMPUTER APPLICATION

ASSIGNMENT: Give examples of descriptive and inferential statistics (at least 5

each).

DESCRIPTIVE STATISTICS
More than 70 percent of the deaths recorded
in the Philippines annually are due to noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) such as heart
illnesses, chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease (COPD), diabetes, cancer, and others.
Present statistics from other official sources
show the country was only 94-percent
sufficient in rice as of last year, based on a
formula that considered palay (unmilled rice)
production, imports and exports.
Research shows that the Philippines, the
worlds biggest rice importer for several
years, wastes rice worth at least $535,000
(P23 million) every day, or at least $223
million a yearenough to feed 4.3 million
people.

According to the rates in 2008, 13 out of 100

males and 12 out of 100 females in the
Philippines would have had some form of
cancer if they would have lived up to age 75.
Ten out of 100 males and 7 out of 100
females would have died from cancer before
age 75.

In 2001, an estimated 15,000 or more than

two-thirds (68.2%) of the total OFWs from
Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR) were
women. In 2002, although the number of
women OFWs from the region declined, their
share to the total expanded to more than
three-fourths (77.8%).

Only 6 out of every 10 babies born in CAR are

protected against neonatal tetanus.
One in ten young Filipino women age 15-19
has begun childbearing: 8 percent are
already mothers and another 2 percent are
pregnant with their first child according to
the results of the 2013 National Demographic
and Health Survey (NDHS).

INFERENTIAL STATISTICS
Poor Filipinos prefer
eating junk food or
noodles as these are
cheaper compared to
the more nutritious
fruits or vegetables.

Those in lowerincome households

eat more rice than
the middle- and
upper-income
groups, whose diets
are more varied.

The major factors

involved in the
causation of cancer,
as well as many
other chronic
degenerative
diseases, are
cigarette smoking,
unhealthy diet,
alcohol drinking,
physical inactivity,
overweight/obesity,
hormones, viruses
and ionizing
radiation.

There were more

women Overseas
Filipino Workers
(OFW) than men.

Early pregnancy is
common among
young adult women
with less education
than among those
with higher
education.

Davao City has an area of 2,211 sq. km., it is

about three times the size of the national
capital, Metro Manila.

The largest city in

the Philippines is
Davao City.
