Secondary 3 Elementary Mathematics Quiz - Statistics Probability (Answers)

  1. 17

    • Data: 12, 15, 15, 17, 20, 22, 25. Middle value is 17. (2 marks)

  2. 10

    • Q1=15Q_1 = 15, Q3=22Q_3 = 22. IQR=22−15=7\text{IQR} = 22 - 15 = 7. (Wait, recalculating: 12, 15, 15 | 17 | 20, 22, 25. Q1=15,Q3=22Q_1=15, Q_3=22. IQR=7\text{IQR} = 7). (2 marks)

  3. 35

    • Range=Max−Min=40−5=35\text{Range} = \text{Max} - \text{Min} = 40 - 5 = 35. (2 marks)

  4. 12

    • Directly from the given Q1Q_1. (1 mark)

  5. 40

    • Median is at 50%50\% of total frequency: 0.5×80=400.5 \times 80 = 40. (2 marks)

  6. 20

    • Total for 5 numbers: 5×12=605 \times 12 = 60.
    • Total for 6 numbers: 6×14=846 \times 14 = 84.
    • 6th number: 84−60=2484 - 60 = 24. (Wait: 6×14=846 \times 14 = 84. 84−60=2484-60=24). (3 marks)

  7. 3.27 (or 10.67\sqrt{10.67})

    • Mean xˉ=(4+8+12)/3=8\bar{x} = (4+8+12)/3 = 8.
    • σ=[(4−8)2+(8−8)2+(12−8)2]/3=(16+0+16)/3=32/3≈3.27\sigma = \sqrt{[(4-8)^2 + (8-8)^2 + (12-8)^2]/3} = \sqrt{(16+0+16)/3} = \sqrt{32/3} \approx 3.27. (3 marks)

  8. Mean = 55, SD = 4

    • New Mean: 50+5=5550 + 5 = 55.
    • SD remains unchanged when adding a constant. (3 marks)

  9. Set A

    • Set A has a smaller standard deviation (5 < 12), indicating data is closer to the mean and thus more consistent. (3 marks)

  10. 15

    • (10+20)/2=15(10 + 20) / 2 = 15. (1 mark)

  11. 1/2

    • Prime numbers: 2, 3, 5. Probability = 3/6 = 1/2. (2 marks)

  12. 3/5

    • P(not red)=P(blue)=6/10=3/5P(\text{not red}) = P(\text{blue}) = 6/10 = 3/5. (2 marks)

  13. 3/4

    • Outcomes: HH, HT, TH, TT. At least one head: HH, HT, TH. 3/43/4. (3 marks)

  14. 0.7

    • P(A∪B)=P(A)+P(B)=0.3+0.4=0.7P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) = 0.3 + 0.4 = 0.7. (2 marks)

  15. 0.3

    • P(C∩D)=P(C)×P(D)=0.6×0.5=0.3P(C \cap D) = P(C) \times P(D) = 0.6 \times 0.5 = 0.3. (2 marks)

  16. 13/28

    • P(WW)=(5/8)×(4/7)=20/56P(WW) = (5/8) \times (4/7) = 20/56.
    • P(BB)=(3/8)×(2/7)=6/56P(BB) = (3/8) \times (2/7) = 6/56.
    • Total = 26/56=13/2826/56 = 13/28. (4 marks)

  17. 0.12

    • 0.4×0.3=0.120.4 \times 0.3 = 0.12. (2 marks)

  18. 17/20

    • n(M∪S)=12+10−5=17n(M \cup S) = 12 + 10 - 5 = 17.
    • P=17/20P = 17/20. (3 marks)

  19. 5/24

    • P(Green)=(1−(1/4+1/3))/2=(1−7/12)/2=(5/12)/2=5/24P(\text{Green}) = (1 - (1/4 + 1/3)) / 2 = (1 - 7/12) / 2 = (5/12) / 2 = 5/24. (3 marks)

  20. 21/100

    • P(Red)×P(Blue)=(7/10)×(3/10)=21/100P(\text{Red}) \times P(\text{Blue}) = (7/10) \times (3/10) = 21/100. (3 marks)
