For the week of January 30, 2017 - February 03, 2017 Ive learned is about
Locating Percentiles Under the Normal Curve it is about locating the z-scores under the
normal curve, but before that you should first convert the given percentiles into the z-
table to identity the z-score. Percentile can be express not only by Percentile but also in
Percentage or in Proportion. Also, I have learned that, how would you know whether you
will add (positive) or minus (negative) the given. So here is the way how to identify it.
Since the both sides are consisting of 50% - if the given value is less than 50% then it is
negative or minus, but if its greater than 50% then it is positive or add. The Applying
the Normal Curve Concepts in Problem Solving in this topic, it will teach us how to
Here is the example of the locating percentiles under the normal curve and the
Given: = 80 = 15
1st Step: Draw a normal curve. To identify where to locate the given value.
Note: 0.5000 came from the half of the curve since the half of the curve is
both 0.5000. Also, it used the minus (-) sign because the 30% is less than
50%.
4th Step: Find the area of the given (0.2000) or the value nearest to it in the Table
6th Step: Find the formula that determining the raw scores.
z = X-
Since the formula was equal to z-score we will derived the formula so that we can
X = + z

7th Step: After getting the formula of the raw score we will substitute the given
. X = + z
X = 87.8 ~ 88
For me, it is okay to based your understanding in the book because it is the way of
how you learning something for example, you are following how the book answer the
example for you to know how or in what way you will going to answer the question or
the given assignment to you. For me also it is okay to use the examples in the book
because for me, it will be my guide in case Ill lose and also in that way it wont be hard

Sample Means, Finding the Mean and Variance of the Sampling Distribution of Means
and the previous lesson way back in Grade 10 is the Combination. In sampling
the possible samples of a specific size from a population. And in finding the mean and
variance of the sampling distribution of means is a looking or finding the mean and the
variance in the sampling distribution using formulas. While the combination is a way of
calculating the event in which is the order is not important. The formula for this is N Cn
where: N = size of the population and n = size of the sample; this formula is used to
determine the number of possible samples that can be drawn from the population.
Here is the example of how to construct the sampling distribution, finding the
First step: List all the possible sample and the corresponding mean.
Sample Mean
~ Solve for the combination to know how many
2, 6 4.00 possible sample will have. Use this formula: N Cn
2, 8 5.00
N=5

2, 0 1.00
n= 2
2, 1 1.50
6, 8 7.00
0, 1 0.50
0.50 1 0.10
1.00 1 0.10

7.00 0.10
Total n = 10 1.00
Third step: Compute the mean of the sampling distribution of the sample means ().
~ Multiply the

Fourth step: Compute the variance (2) of the sampling distribution of the sample means.

P( X ) X -

P( X ) * (

~ Subtract the population mean () from each sample mean ( X ).
~ Square the difference. ( X - )2
~ Multiply the results by the corresponding probability. P( X ) * ( X - )2

The things that we have to apply to ourselves is the patience because, in doing or
answering this examples and questions might take too long and can lose your patience.

Also, doing the procedures and organize things will help you how to be an organized
person because in doing table in these statistics is hard to do in a way that your paper
should be clean and neat or else you wont understand what youve written. In a real-life
In the end of my journal I just want to say that I understand the topic well though
