Answer Key - Statistics Probability Quiz

Mode: 12 (appears 3 times). Median: 15 (ordered: 12, 12, 12, 15, 15, 18, 22). [2 marks]
Total of 5 numbers = $5 \times 14 = 70$ . Total of 6 numbers = $6 \times 15 = 90$ . Sixth number = $90 - 70 = 20$ . [2 marks]
Values are 162, 165, 165, 168. Those between 162 and 165 inclusive are 162, 165, 165. Count = 3. [1 mark]
$\text{Frequency} = \text{Frequency Density} \times \text{Class Width} = 1.2 \times (30 - 20) = 12$ . [2 marks]
$\text{IQR} = Q_3 - Q_1 = 65 - 35 = 30$ . [2 marks]
$Q_1$ position: $0.25 \times 120 = 30\text{th}$ value. $Q_3$ position: $0.75 \times 120 = 90\text{th}$ value. [2 marks]
New Mean = $60 + 5 = 65$ . New SD = 4.5 (SD remains unchanged when a constant is added to all values). [2 marks]
$\text{Mean} = \frac{(5\times2) + (6\times3) + (7\times4) + (8\times1)}{10} = \frac{10+18+28+8}{10} = \frac{64}{10} = 6.4$ . [2 marks]
$\sum fx^2 = (25\times2) + (36\times3) + (49\times4) + (64\times1) = 50 + 108 + 196 + 64 = 422$ . $\text{SD} = \sqrt{\frac{422}{10} - (6.4)^2} = \sqrt{42.2 - 40.96} = \sqrt{1.24} \approx 1.11$ . [3 marks]
Set A is more consistent because it has a smaller standard deviation (3.2 < 6.8), meaning the data points are closer to the mean. [2 marks]
$\text{Number} = \frac{108}{360} \times 180 = 0.3 \times 180 = 54$ students. [2 marks]
The truncated y-axis (not starting at 0) exaggerates the visual difference in growth, making the increase appear more significant than it is. [2 marks]
$P(\text{Not Blue}) = 1 - P(\text{Blue}) = 1 - \frac{3}{10} = \frac{7}{10}$ or 0.7. [2 marks]
Sum of 7 outcomes: (1,6), (2,5), (3,4), (4,3), (5,2), (6,1). Total outcomes = 36. $P = \frac{6}{36} = \frac{1}{6}$ . [2 marks]
Sample space: {HH, HT, TH, TT}. At least one head: {HH, HT, TH}. $P = \frac{3}{4}$ or 0.75. [2 marks]
For mutually exclusive events, $P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) = 0.3 + 0.4 = 0.7$ . [2 marks]
$P(\text{Red}_1) = \frac{4}{10}$ . $P(\text{Red}_2 | \text{Red}_1) = \frac{3}{9}$ . $P = \frac{4}{10} \times \frac{3}{9} = \frac{12}{90} = \frac{2}{15} \approx 0.133$ . [3 marks]
$P(\text{Red}_1) = \frac{4}{10}$ . $P(\text{Red}_2) = \frac{4}{10}$ . $P = \frac{4}{10} \times \frac{4}{10} = \frac{16}{100} = 0.16$ . [2 marks]
$P(\text{Rain}) \times P(\text{Rain}) = 0.3 \times 0.3 = 0.09$ . [2 marks]
$P(\text{Win}) = P(\text{Win 1st}) + P(\text{Lose 1st}) \times P(\text{Win 2nd})$ $P = \frac{1}{4} + (\frac{3}{4} \times \frac{1}{3}) = \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{2}$ or 0.5. [4 marks]
