You're right. I forgot to do continuity correction
Hey for question 8 ii) i completely forgot that you could actually work out the population variance and instead stated the value of the population variance where the conclusion would change from Ho rejected to Ho accepted - do you reckon I still might be able to get some marks from that?
Can someone send me the thread for S2 OCR MEI 2016 please as I haven't seen nothing come up yet

I put all of these, except i put for 6(i) Cars come at an average constant rate instead of 'constant probability of cars througout the minute', is this wrong?
Also for 5) it says to use 'exact binomial' - does this mean that you have to work out P(G>=6) with the exact binomial expansion? (nCr e.t.c) or can you use tables.
Let's Compile the Mark Scheme and Questions in a central place. This will allow corrections to be made easily and so that there is only one central copy.

Didnt q9 say any incorrect conclusion which would mean probability type i error added to the proability of a type ii error? If not, how many marks would i lose for this? Thanks
For type 1 error, lambda must not have changed. As it explicitly said that the lambda is actually 14, its just type 2 errors that youd be considering

You can only have a type 1 error if the Null Hypothesis is actually correct, since it was incorrect you could only have a type 2 error. You'd probably still get some marks though if you worked out the probability of the type 2

Great solutions, thanks for being so quick. I said for why large lambda would maybe be an invalid Poisson distribution was because it said that lambda was particularly high at a particularly time of day and therefore the 'constant average rate' property wouldn't hold. Is this incorrect? Otherwise my solutions are the same as yours!

I used my calculator’s 1-BinomialCD(5,8,0.55) function, but using the tables is fine. Average constant rate would probably be allowed.

The constant average rate only applies through the minute, so poisson is still possible at peak times.
I messed up 8 i and ii completely
For the first one I didn't divide by n
The second one I divided by n
So my conclusions and all that are wrong
Do you think I'd get any marks at all

I did exactly the same thing! I'm just so annoyed cause it's worth so many. We should get about 3/14 I think for our original h0,h1 and then correct evaluation to your outcome
