QUESTION 1

The time (in seconds) between the consecutive landings of aeroplanes at an airport on day
1 was recorded. The data is given in the Cumulative Frequency table below.

Time in seconds Number of aeroplanes Cumulative

(Frequency) Frequency

60 < t £ 90 2 2
90 < t £ 120 16 18
120 < t £ 150 28 46
150 < t £ 180 17 63
180 < t £ 210 k p
210 < t £ 240 7 80

1.1 Show that k = 10. (1)

1.2 Write down the value of p. (1)

1.3 Calculate the estimated mean time between the landings of two consecutive
aeroplanes. (3)

1.4 It is given that (q ; 186,89) is the interval of the landing time between aeroplanes
within ONE standard deviation from the estimated mean.

1.4.1 Write down the estimated standard deviation of the time between the
consecutive landings of the aeroplanes. (2)

1.4.2 Calculate the value of q. (1)

1.5 On day 2, the same number of aeroplanes that landed on day 1, land at the
airport. The elapsed time between all the consecutive landings of all the
aeroplanes is m seconds shorter than the time that is given in the table above.

If an ogive is to be drawn of the data of day 2, the following will be true:

· The ogive will be grounded at (57 ; 0)

· The maximum value of the ogive will be at (237 ; 80)

Determine the average time between the landing of two aeroplanes on DAY 2, if
it is given that the frequency distribution of the two days are the same. (2)

QUESTION 2

The marks, in percentage, obtained in an Accounting and Mathematics test by a group of

ten Grade 12 learners is shown in the table below.

Test

2.1 Identify an outlier of the above data. (1)

2.2 Determine the equation for the least squares regression line after ignoring the
outlier in the above data. (3)

2.3 Another learner in the same class obtained 83% in the Accounting test, but due to
illness could not write the Mathematics test. Use the equation established in 2.2
to predict the learner’s mark for the Mathematics test. (2)

2.4 The teacher decided to award the learner who was absent the predicted mark
obtained in 2.3 for the Mathematics test. Other learners in the class felt that it
was unfair.

Motivate to these learners why the predicted mark is a good indication of what
the learner may have scored in the Mathematics test. (2)

2.5 After the Mathematics subject advisor has moderated the answer books of the
Mathematics tests, she decides to lower every test mark by p%. Explain, without
any calculations, what influence the lowering in the marks of the Mathematics
test has on the slope of the least squares regression line of the above data when
the outlier is ignored. (2)
