3. Martin is investigating the relationship between a person’s daily caffeine consumption,
c milligrams, and the amount of sleep they get, h hours, per night. He collected this
information from 20 people and the results are summarised below.

DO NOT WRITE IN THIS AREA


∑c = 3660 ∑h = 126 ∑c2 = 973228
∑ch = 20023.4 Scc = 303448 Sch = –3034.6

Martin calculates the product moment correlation coefficient for these data and
obtains –0.833

(a) Give a reason why this value supports a linear relationship between c and h

of hours of sleep decreases by 1

(c) Determine, by calculation, whether or not the data support this statement.
(3)

(d) Use the data to calculate an estimate for the expected number of hours of sleep per
night when no caffeine is consumed.

5. Some children are playing a game involving throwing a ball into a bucket. Each child has
3 throws and the number of times the ball lands in the bucket, x, is recorded. Their results
are given in the table below.

DO NOT WRITE IN THIS AREA


x 0 1 2 3
Frequency 16 36 24 4

(a) Find x
(1)

Sandra decides to model the game by assuming that on each throw, the probability of the
ball landing in the bucket is 0.4 for every child on every throw and that the throws are all
independent. The random variable S represents the number of times the ball lands in the
bucket for a randomly selected child.

(b) Find P(S = 2)


(2)

(c) Complete the table below to show the probability distribution for S.

DO NOT WRITE IN THIS AREA


s 0 1 2 3
P(S = s) 0.432 0.064
(1)

Ting believes that the probability of the ball landing in the bucket is not the same for each
throw. He suggests that the probability will increase with each throw and uses the model

pi = 0.15i + 0.10
where i = 1, 2, 3 and pi is the probability that the ith throw of the ball, by any particular
child, will land in the bucket.
The random variable T represents the number of times the ball lands in the bucket for a
randomly selected child using Ting’s model.

(d) Show that


(i) P(T = 3) = 0.055 DO NOT WRITE IN THIS AREA

(ii) P(T = 1) = 0.45


(5)

(e) Complete the table below to show the probability distribution for T, stating the exact
probabilities in each case.

t 0 1 2 3
P(T = t) 0.45 0.055
(3)

(f) State, giving your reasons, whether Sandra’s model or Ting’s model is the more
appropriate for modelling this game.

5. Some children are playing a game involving throwing a ball into a bucket. Each child has
3 throws and the number of times the ball lands in the bucket, x, is recorded. Their results
are given in the table below.

DO NOT WRITE IN THIS AREA


x 0 1 2 3
Frequency 16 36 24 4

(a) Find x
(1)

Sandra decides to model the game by assuming that on each throw, the probability of the
ball landing in the bucket is 0.4 for every child on every throw and that the throws are all
independent. The random variable S represents the number of times the ball lands in the
bucket for a randomly selected child.

(b) Find P(S = 2)

s 0 1 2 3
P(S = s) 0.432 0.064
(1)
Ting believes that the probability of the ball landing in the bucket is not the same for each
throw. He suggests that the probability will increase with each throw and uses the model

pi = 0.15i + 0.10
where i = 1, 2, 3 and pi is the probability that the ith throw of the ball, by any particular
child, will land in the bucket.
The random variable T represents the number of times the ball lands in the bucket for a
randomly selected child using Ting’s model.

(d) Show that

(i) P(T = 3) = 0.055 DO NOT WRITE IN THIS AREA

(ii) P(T = 1) = 0.45

It is easier to diagnose people with type B of the disease and it is known that 2% of the
population have type B.

A test has been developed to help diagnose whether or not a person has the disease. The
event T represents a positive result on the test. After a large-scale trial of the test, the
following information was obtained.

For a person with type B of the disease the probability of a positive test result is 0.96
For a person who does not have the disease the probability of a positive test result is 0.05

3. Soapern sells washing machines. When a customer buys a washing machine from
Soapern, the customer is also invited to buy a guarantee policy to cover breakdowns and
repairs for the next three years.
The manager of Soapern believes that the relationship between the number of washing
machines sold (m) and the number of guarantee policies sold (p) can be modelled by a
straight line.
She collected data each month for 10 months. The scatter diagram below illustrates these
data.

(c) State, giving a reason, whether or not the data are consistent with the
manager’s belief.
(1)

The manager noticed that the total number of washing machines sold was k times the total
1
number of guarantee policies sold and suggests a model of the form p = m, where k is
an integer. k

Jiang works for Soapern and thought that this model oversimplified the situation and
suggested that a linear regression of p on m may be more appropriate.

(e) Find the equation of the linear regression of p on m, giving your answer in the
form p = a + bm, where a and b should be given to 3 significant figures.
(4)
(f) Use Jiang’s model to estimate the number of guarantee policies sold when 70 washing
machines are sold in a month.
(1)
Usually about 70 washing machines are sold in January. Soapern decides to offer a bonus
to staff during January based on the number of guarantee policies sold. If the number of
guarantee policies sold is greater than the number estimated by the model, the bonus will
be paid.

(g) State, giving your reasons, whether you would recommend that the staff use the
manager’s model or Jiang’s model.

4.00 w 5.50 12 4.75

( You may use∑ f x = 311.5 and ∑ f x 2 = 1051.125 )

A histogram is drawn to represent these data.


The bar representing the birth weight 1.50 w 2.50 has a width of 1 cm and a
height of 4 cm.
(a) Calculate the width and height of the bar representing birth weight 3.50 w 4.00

(c) Use the median and quartiles to describe the skewness of these data.
(2)
(d) Find an estimate for (i) the mean birth weight
(ii) the standard deviation of the birth weights.
(3)
(e) Use the formula
3(mean − median )
skewness =
standard deviation
to estimate a value for the skewness of these data. Give your answer to 2 significant
figures.
(2)
The researcher read that birth weights should be approximately normally distributed and
decides to split the class 3.00 w 3.50

The frequency for 3.00 w 3.25 is 9 and the frequency for 3.25 w 3.50 is 23

(f) (i) State, giving a reason, what the effect would be on the estimate of the median.

(ii) Without carrying out any further calculations state, giving a reason, what the
effect of this change would be on the estimate of the mean.

6. A disc of radius 1 cm is rolled onto a horizontal grid of rectangles so that the disc is
equally likely to land anywhere on the grid. Each rectangle is 5 cm long and 3 cm
wide. There are no gaps between the rectangles and the grid is sufficiently large so
that no discs roll off the grid.
If the disc lands inside a rectangle without covering any part of the edges of the
rectangle then a prize is won.
By considering the possible positions for the centre of the disc,
1
(a) show that the probability of winning a prize on any particular roll is
5
(3)
A group of 15 students each roll the disc onto the grid twenty times and record the
number of times, x, that each student wins a prize. Their results are summarised
as follows

∑ x = 61 ∑x 2
= 295

(b) Find the standard deviation of the number of prizes won per student.
(2)
A second group of 12 students each roll the disc onto the grid twenty times and the
mean number of prizes won per student is 3.5 with a standard deviation of 2
(c) Find the mean and standard deviation of the number of prizes won per
student for the whole group of 27 students.
(7)
The 27 students also recorded the number of times that the disc covered a corner of
a rectangle and estimated the probability to be 0.2216 (to 4 decimal places).
(d) Explain how this probability could be used to find an estimate for the
value of π and state the value of your estimate.

6. Students on a psychology course were given a pre-test at the start of the course and
a final exam at the end of the course. The teacher recorded the number of marks
achieved on the pre-test, p, and the number of marks achieved on the final exam, f, for
34 students and displayed them on the scatter diagram.

(e) Find the range of values of p for which this regression model, f = 10.8 + 0.748 p,
predicts a greater number of marks on the final exam than on the pre-test.
(3)
Later the teacher discovers an error in the recorded data. The student who achieved a
score of 98 on the pre-test, scored 92 not 29 on the final exam.
The summary statistics used for the model f = 10.8 + 0.748 p are corrected to include
this information and a new least squares regression line is found.
Given the original summary statistics were,

n = 34 ∑ p = 2120 ∑ pf = 133 486 Spp = 15 573.76 Spf = 11 648.35

(f) calculate the gradient of the new regression line. Show your working clearly.

4. A French test and a Spanish test were sat by 11 students.
The table below shows their marks.

Spanish mark (s) 16 90 24 28 32 36 38 44 48 48 68

Greg says that if these points were plotted on a scatter diagram, then the point (30, 90)
would be an outlier because 90 is an outlier for the Spanish marks.
An outlier is defined as a value that is

greater than Q3 + 1.5 × (Q3 – Q1) or smaller than Q1 – 1.5 × (Q3 – Q1)

(a) Show that 90 is an outlier for the Spanish marks.

regression line of s on f for the remaining 10 students is

s = –5.72 + 1.04 f
where the values of the intercept and gradient are given to 3 significant figures.
You must show your working.
