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
