Suggested Solutions MaA5NVCO09 Statistics WARNING: THERE ARE DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF THE TEST
Instructions Test period Resources The test 105 minutes: 8:05-9:50 Friday, February 12 , 2010 Formula sheet, your personalised formula booklet, ruler, protractor, a graphic calculator, and a lexicon. A single answer is not enough. It is also expected that you write down what you do that you explain/motivate your reasoning that you draw any necessary illustrations. Try all of the problems. It can be relatively easy, even towards the end of the test, to receive some points for partial solutions. A positive evaluation can be given even for unfinished solutions. Score and mark levels The maximum number of points you can receive for each solution is indicated after each problem. If a problem can give 2 Pass-points and 1 Pass with distinction-point this is written [2/1]. Some problems are marked with , which means that they more than other problems offer opportunities to show knowledge that can be related to the criteria for Pass with Special Distinction in Assessment Criteria 2000. Lower limit for the mark on the test G: Pass: At least 11 points VG: At least 22 points 6 of which are VG-points MVG: At least 25 points 13 of which are VG-points. High quality of calculations and deep level of understanding must be illustrated through out the test, especially in problems marked by .

In each case, show how you arrived at your answer by clearly indicating all of the necessary steps, formula substitutions, diagrams, graphs, charts, etc. The necessary measurement in a given problem must be done using a protractor or ruler. No assumption is accepted without a proper measurement. 1. Philip throws a fair die 30 times and records: What is the modal score? [1] What is the median score? [2] Represent the scores on a bar chart. [2] 3 6 2 4 3 2 6 3 4 5 1 6 4 2 6 3 4 1 5 4 5 6 1 5 2 6 4 2 6 1 Suggested solutions: The modal score is the one that is repeated the most. Number 6 is repeated 7 times. The modal is 6. The median is 4. It is the average of the score number 15 and 16 (in this case 4.) if we arrange the scores in the increasing size order as: 1 1 1 1 2 2 2 2 2 3 3 3 3 4 4 4 4 4 4 5 5 5 5 6 6 6 6 6 6 6

At the aspect assessment of your work with problem 7 your teacher will consider what mathematical knowledge you have demonstrated and how well you have carried through the task how well you have explained your work and motivated your conclusions how well you have written your solutions.

7. Anna couldnt remember her scores from five mathematics course A tests. She did however remember that the mean was 81, the median was 84, and the mode was 89. What was the lowest possible score she could have received in any one test? Note that all her scores were integers with 0 as the lowest possible score and 100 as the highest possible. [1/3/] Suggested Solutions: The median of any odd number of scores is the middle score when the scores are arranged in the increasing order. Therefore, Annas middle score must be 84 84 The mode of Annas score was 89. The mode is the score which are repeated most. Science her median score is 84, she must have had scored 89 only twice. There is no other possibility. 84 89 89

Due to the fact that we are looking for her lowest possible score, x , the missing score at most could only be 83. Therefore, her scores may have been:

83

84

89

89

The mean is the sum of all scores divided by the number of scores, i.e. 5. Her mean score was 81. Hence x + 83 + 84 + 89 + 89 81 = 5 x + 351 81 = x + 345 = 81 5 x + 345 = 405 x = 405 345 x = 60 5 Her lowest possible score was 60 and her scores may have been: 60 83 84 89 89

The mode is 89, the median is 84, and the mean is 60 + 83 + 84 + 89 + 89 405 = = 81 . 5 5
