DATE: April 13, 2022_ SECTION / TIME: GAS 11 Rizal/9:00-10:00
MODIFIED DAILY LESSON PLAN
I. OBJECTIVES
A. Content The learner demonstrates understanding of key concepts of random variables and
Standards probability distribution.
B. Performance The learner is able to apply an appropriate random variable for a given real-life
Standards problem (such as in decision-making and game of chances).
The learner
Find the variance and standard deviation of discrete random variable
C. Learning Specifically, at the end of this lesson, the learners should be able to:
Competencies 1. calculate the mean, variance and standard deviation of a discrete
/ Objectives random variable;
Write the LC 2. describe and interprets the mean and the variance of a discrete
code for each random variable; and
3. solve problems involving mean and variance of probability distribution
(M11/12SP-IIIb-2-4)

and abstractions data are in a probability distribution.
about the lesson High variance and standard deviation mean that the values of the random
variables are too different from each other.
Low values means that the values are not too different from each other.
