 QUESTION 1

 Eastern High School compared the Term 1 percentages of 20 Grade 12 learners consisting
 of 10 boys and 10 girls. The following data was recorded:

  Boys’ marks        41   30   24   65    72    15    83    52      60   38

 Girls’ mean mark = 51                     Girls’ standard deviation = 15,95

 1.1        Calculate the mean mark for boys.                                                        (1)

 1.3        Did boys or girls perform better? Give a reason for your answer.                         (2)

 1.4        By what percentage must each of the boys’ marks be adjusted so that the mean of
            boys can be the same as that of the girls?                                               (1)

 1.5        Will the boys’ standard deviation increase, decrease or remain the same after the
            adjustment in QUESTION 1.4 above?                                                        (1)
