(EC/SEPTEMBER 2023) MATHEMATICS P2 3 QUESTION 1 1.1 A school’s hockey team recorded the number of push-ups each player completed in a minute. The numbers for the seven players were: 29 27 24 31 22 19 30 1.1.1 Calculate the: (a) Mean (2) (b) Standard deviation (1) 1.1.2 How many players were within one deviation of the mean? (3) 1.1.3 Seven players in the school’s rugby team also recorded the number of push- ups they completed in a minute. Their numbers gave a mean of 26 and a standard deviation of 3,2. Use the standard deviations and the means to compare the number of push- ups of the players in the rugby and hockey teams. (2) 1.2 The number of points scored by a rugby team in each of 10 matches is represented in the box and whisker diagram below. The scores of the 10 matches were different. 26 30 48   | | | | | | 10 20 30 40 50 60 1.2.1 In what percentage of the matches did the team score over 30 points? (1) 1.2.2 Which of the mean or median is likely to be greater? Give a reason for your answer. (2) [11] Copyright reserved Please turn over

(3) 2.2 Write down the value of the correlation coefficient, r, between the 3rd term and final exam percentages. (1) 2.3 A candidate scored 48% in the third term. 2.3.1 Use the equation of the least squares regression line to predict his final percentage. Round your answer off to the nearest whole number. (2) 2.3.2 Give a reason why the prediction can be regarded as reliable. (1) 2.4 The least squares regression line is used to predict that the final percentage of a candidate who scored 50% in the third term is 80%. 2.4.1 Why would this prediction be unreliable? (1) 2.4.2 Would adding the point (20;10) to the original data set increase or decrease the gradient of the least squares regression line? (1) [9] Copyright reserved Please turn over
