Midterm Examination Goyena, Vash A. 11HUMSS-St. Daniel

This document appears to be a midterm examination covering several topics in statistics: 1) Identifying discrete and continuous variables. 2) Constructing probability distributions and determining if they are valid. 3) Calculating variance and standard deviation from a probability distribution. 4) Finding areas under the normal curve. 5) Locating percentile points on the normal curve. The exam concludes by asking the student to reflect on what they have learned about using statistics in daily life and business decision making.
