Discussion:
Today our lesson is all about how do we distinguish between discrete and
continuous random variables.
Random variables can be classified as either discrete that is,
taking any of a specified lit of exact values, or as continuous
taking any numerical value in an interval or collection of intervals.
Discrete random variables are variables whose values are obtained
by counting. These are variables that can take on a finite number
of distinct values.
For example: You can count the number of sacks of palay
after the harvest.
*The teacher will asks the students to give more examples of
discrete random variables.
Continuous random variables are variables whose values are
obtained by measuring. These are random variables that take an
interminably uncountable number of potential values, regularly
measurable amounts.
For example: the grains of palay in a sack.
*The teacher will asks the students to give more examples of
continuous random variables.
5.2.Activity Activity 2: Show a cartesian plane. Tell about what the learners can the
see in the Cartesian plane.

5.3.Analysis The teacher will use Activity # 2 to answer queries and to clarify thoughts
regarding the lesson.
The teacher asks the learners the following questions:
1. Describe the cartesian plane used in Activity #2?
2. What does the line indicate?
3. What does the dots indicate?
4. How can you describe between the line from the dots in the cartesian plane?
The teacher discusses further on the concept of discrete and continuous random
variables.
The teacher will give the activity practice sheets to the learners.
Instruction: Identify whether the given situation involves a discrete random variable or a
continuous random variable? Write the answer on the answer sheet.
(This activity enable the leaners apply the concept of Local Guiding Services, and
Practical Research)
5.8. The teacher will let the learners read the following statements below.
Wrap-up/Con
cluding People are an asset, not a liability.
Activity
The United States is the most immigrant-friendly nation in the world and
the richest country in the world. This is not a coincidence. Those voices
that would make us less immigrant-friendly would make us less
successful, less prosperous and certainly less American.
- Grover Norquist
Just think about it… how you value yourself and others.
