Study Notes
Copyright and Government Works
- According to Republic Act 8293, section 176, government works in the Philippines are not protected by copyright.
- For the exploitation of government works for profit, permission is not necessary, but it is required to acknowledge the source of the material.

- The publisher and authors are responsible for obtaining the necessary permissions and licenses to use the borrowed materials.
Royalties and Government Works
- The government may impose as a condition the payment of royalties for exploiting government works for profit.
Statistics and Probability Module
- The main focus of the module is on Statistics and Probability.
- Statistics and Probability are considered important because they are used to model and analyze random events and behaviors.
- The module discusses topics such as random variables, probability distributions, and statistical measures.
Key Concepts in Statistics and Probability
- The standard deviation is the square root of the variance, providing a scale-independent measure of the spread of a random variable's values around its mean.
- Random variables are used to model the behavior of uncertain events, such as information transmission and finance.
- The median is the middle value of a random variable when ordered in ascending or descending order.
- Random variables are primarily used to model the behavior of stock prices, portfolio returns, and other financial metrics in finance.
- The variance is a measure of the spread of a random variable's values around its mean.
- Discrete random variables can only take on integer values.
- Continuous random variables can take any value within a given range.
- Random variables in probability theory represent uncertain events or outcomes.
- Random variables have numerous applications in fields such as finance, engineering, biology, and social sciences.
- The range of possible values for a continuous random variable is a continuous interval.
