ACTIVITY NO. 5: COMPUTING PROBABILITY CORRESPONDING TO A GIVEN RANDOM VARIABLE NAME: SCORE: TRACK/STRAND & SEC.: (HOW MANY SIBLINGS DO THE LEARNERS HAVE) In your Statistics class, the teacher wants to know the number of siblings the learners have. Teacher: How many of the class have 0 sibling? Class: (There were 2 learners who raised their hands.) Teacher: How many of you has 1 sibling? Class: (There were 10 learners who raised their hands.) This continues until 7 siblings. Suppose that we have the following table of frequencies. Let us use W to represent the number of sibling/s. Probability of the Random Variable (W) P(W) 2/50 = 0.04 = 4% 10/50= 0.2 = 20% 28/50=0.56% = 56% 5/50=0.1 10% 3/50=0.06 = 6% 1/50=0.02 = 2% W= Number of siblings Frequency 2 10 28 %3D 4 1 %3D 1 1/50=0.02 = 2% %3D Total

Use the data in the following table that shows results from a polygraph (lie detector) conducted by researchers Charles R. Honts and Gordon H. Barland. In each case, it was known if the subjects lied or did not lie, so the table indicates when the polygraph was correct. If two different subjects are randomly selected without replacement, find the probability that they both lied.
