Ocr mei statistics 1 exam thread (24/05/13)

Scroll to see replies

Just realised my mistake i did , 0.5 not 0.05
Unofficial MS:
1i) mean = 249.4 sd = 14.475
1ii) new mean = 209.46 new sd = 13.0275

2i) 5/12
2ii) 0.1989

3i) 0.185
3ii) 0.8784
3iii) 42.16

4i) prove 1/20th.
4ii) e(x)= 1507.5 var(x) = 445511.25

5i) probability of right or wrong is 0.5 as the e(x) is 0.5 (guess of 2 items).
5ii) Accept null hypothesis, critical region 15-20.

6i) median = 3.32 q3= 3.71 q1=2.83 iqr= 0.88
6ii) outlier 1.5(0.88) +/- median. Don't discount.
6iii) median = 3.5 q3 = 3.85 q1= 3.14 iqr= 0.71
6iv) Boys have a greater avg weight, girls have more variance in the weights.
6v) 0.0018

7i) Draw diagram
7ii) A: 0.1878 B: 0.1541 C: 0.8242
7iii) 0.0056

Could u please post question number 6. I need to check the cumulative frequency diagram. :smile:

UNOFFICIAL MARK SCHEME


vi) (8/200)x(7/199). You can probably use any values from 7-10/200 (it depends how you read the graph). [3]


For question 6 part vi) is it wrong if I multiplied the answer by 2. So what I did was:
(8/200)x(7/199) *2

I did that because there are two ways of picking the two boys. If that is wrong could someone please explain to me why thats wrong :confused:

What do you guys think... realistic enough or a bit higher.

I really messed up question 2 :frown: I did 5/10*4/9*5/8 and left it as 5/36. Do you get error carried forward marks on these maths papers? Because I also made a mistake on question 6 working out the first upper quartile wrong. Hate realising mistakes when you've left the exam it felt like it was okay as well!!

for 2 ii) I did (5/12 x 5/12 x 5/12 x 7/12) + ( 5/12 x 5/12 x 5/12 x 5/12)

im pretty confident with that so who has made the error

I don't think an A will be any higher than that. January 2013 was 57 and that was the easiest S1 paper I completed.

For question 2ii I forgot to multiply by 4!... How many marks do you think I will lose (out of 4) for that as the rest of my answer was fine?

You cant pick 8/199 first because you start with 200. And there cant be 7/200 if theres 8/199.

I thought it was the hardest S1 paper I've seen. Maybe it was because it was because it was the real one but i dont think it would be that high. I think it could be lower than that

It really wasn't, if you'd done all the past papers you'd have seen how straight forward it was. There wasn't anything different to previous papers.

I definitely lost 3 on the last Q, maybe 4. So maybe 66/65, hopefully! :biggrin:
