 What is It

Statistics is a branch of Mathematics that deals with collecting,

organizing, presenting, and interpreting numerical information or data.

Real-life problems that can be solved by Statistics:

• Rescue/Response on Emergencies
What happens if the forecast indicates that a super typhoon like Ulysses
is likely to hit our city?
Emergency First Response Team is on standby and ready for their
rescue operations. They base their actions on statistical report.

• Medical Field
How can the government convince people to be vaccinated by anti-
Covid19 vaccines?
Statistics is behind every medical study or research. Declaration of
efficacy of various CoVid19 vaccines must be presented to the people.

• Business/Stock Market
How will you monitor your shares of stocks in business?
Data analysts usually use statistical analysis and computer models to
determine what is likely to happen in the market or in the economy.

• Weather Forecasts
How to predict the weather in a day?
Weather predictions were based on monitoring and comparing the prior
weather conditions.

• Quality Assurance
How do companies maintain the best quality of their product?
Many companies used statistics to test the sample randomly taken from
a population to test the product’s quality. If it passes the quality standard,
then the company assumes that all the items made in the group are good
enough.

 COMMON TERMS IN STATISTICS

Here are some commonly used terms in the study of statistics.

• Population
It refers to a set of people, objects, measurements, or happenings
that belongs to a define group.
• Individual
It is an observation such as a person or object included in the
study.
• Sample
It refers to as a subject, subgroup, or representative of a
population. It is a small portion or part of a population.
• Parameter
It is a data obtained about a population. It is any numerical or
nominal characteristics of a population.
• Data
It is a collection of information about a study under investigation.
It may be a number (quantitative), or a word (qualitative).

Qualitative data

This refers to the data that describes the given information such
as marital status (single or married), age (youth, adult or senior citizen),
height (tall or short), size of a family (big family or small family), religion,
nationality, etc.
Quantitative data

This refers to the data the gives numerical values or

measurement such as weight, age, height, or weekly allowance.
Quantitative data can be discrete or continuous.

Discrete Data – are obtained through counting

Examples
1. Number of motor vehicle accident in the intersection of Gil Fernando
Ave. Marikina City and Marcos highway
2. Number of students in certain online class

Continuous Data – are results of measurements

Examples
1. Height
2. Temperature

DISCIPLINE • GOOD TASTE • EXCELLENCE
 Variable
It refers to the characteristics of the individual to be measured or
observed. In a cheerleading troupe with male and female dancers,
gender is a variable.
Classification of variables:

Dependent Variable – a variable affected or influenced by

another variable
Independent Variable – one that affects or influences the
dependent variable

Sampling Techniques:
Random Sampling is a method by which every element of a population has
a chance of being included in a sample.

a. Simple random sampling is a procedure where a sample is

selected in such a way that every element is a likely to be selected
as any other element from the population.
b. Systematic random sampling is a sampling procedure with a
random start.
c. Stratified random sampling is specifically used when the
population can naturally be classified or strata.

TYPES OF DATA MEASUREMENT

1. Nominal Data
This data refers to qualities with no rank or numerical values.
Examples: nationality, gender, occupation, marital status
2. Interval Data
This data refers to the values that can be ranked and the
differences between them are meaningful.
Examples: temperature, height, weight

3. Ordinal Data
This refers to the data that can be arranged in some order, but
the differences between the data values are meaningless.
Examples: ranking, letter grades, verbal rating, performance rating

4. Ratio Data
This refers to the data that is similar to interval data, except there
is true zero as starting point.
Examples: distance, length, time, weight

Ways in collecting data:
1. Direct Observation
Example: Counting the vehicles passing through Tumana Bridge
between 6:00 pm – 7:00 pm.

Statistical Instrument: Observation Sheet

No. of vehicles entering Tumana No. of vehicles leaving Tumana

2. Survey
Example: Asking 80 people (sample) their preferred vaccine.
Statistical Instrument: Checklist
Preferred Vaccine
Name
Age Gender (Check only 1)
(optional)
J&J Pfizer Moderna Sinovac Astrazenica

Statistical Instrument: Interview

Name: Age:
Address:
What is your preferred vaccine for CoVid?
Do you have any allergic reaction to any medicine?
Do you have any pre-existing illness?
3. File or Records
Example: Collating the preferred distance learning modalities in
Concepcion Integrated School – Secondary Level.
Statistical Instrument: Student’s Profile
Name: Age: Gender:
Address: Contact Number:
Birth date: Birth Place
Distance Learning Modality Chosen:
