Comment on the appropriateness of the use of this method for this situation. [I] (III) Describe briefly another sampling method which can be used by the school and state one advantage of the method used in this context. [3] (b) A machine is set to fill jars with 270 g of kaya. Over a period of time it has been established that the standard deviation of the mass of kaya in ajar is 0.8 g. A setting on the filling machine is altered and the operator suspects that the mean mass of kaya filled by the machine has decreased. A random sample of 10 jars of kaya were measured and the masses in grams were found to be
269, 271, 270, 268, 269, 270, 268, 270, 271, 269.

Assumption: The mass of kaya in a jar follows a normal distribution since a is unknown and n =10 is small.

0

(I)

Assuming that the standard deviation may have been altered, perform an appropriate test at the 10% level of significance, on whether the operator's suspicion about the machine is justifiable. State any assumptions make in carrying out the test. [5] Assume that the standard deviation of the mass of kaya in a jar is unaltered. State what test you would use in this case, giving any assumptions that you need to make. [You are not required to carry out this test]. [1]

(II)

If standard deviation is unaltered, a Z-test is used and we assume that the mass of kaya in a jar to be normally distributed since sample size It 10 is small.

(II)

[Solution] (a) (I) (II) Simple Random Sampling method. Simple Random Sampling is not appropriate as there is a possibility that the sample is not a good representation of the student population. For example, the sample could have an unevenly large number of one gender and less of the other. Stratified sampling could be used where the sample is obtained by dividing the student population according to gender. The students are selected randomly from each gender and the number of students selected from each gender should be proportional to the sizes of each gender in the school. The advantage of this method ensures a good representative sample of the student population as each gender is proportionally represented. Note: Quota Sampling is not acceptable as the samplingframeis available.
