Hence any assumption is not necessary. 8iii p-value = 2(0.0233) = 0.0466 < 0.05 Since the p-value < 0.05 (the significance level), we reject H0 and conclude that at the 5% level, there is sufficient evidence that the mean time required by a person to complete the sum has changed. 9a M A T H E I C S M A T No repeated letters : 8 5 6720P

Hence the model y c d x should be a better model. This is confirmed by the r value in (ii), which shows that y c d x has 0.991r which is closer to 1. 10iv 0.12102 2.0112 0.121 2.01 (3 sf) yx x 1645 3.yx Since 1r and estimate is obtained via interpolation, hence estimate is reliable. 10v From GC, 8.6834, 17.585xy Hence a possible point is: 75.4,17.6 (3 sf) x x x x x x x y (200, 28.31) (10, 7.05)

The average rate may not be constant because for example, no on e will take the bus during the wee hours where there are no bus services. The arrivals may not be independent because for example, family members will arrive at the bus stop at the same time for a family trip. 11ii X: no. of people who arrive at the bus stop in a period of 2 minutes. ~ Po 4X P 5 0.1562934519 0.156 (3 sf) X 11iii Y: no. of people who arrive at the bus stop in a period of 1 minute. ~ Po 2Y 1 2 1 2 P at most 1 in 1st minute | 5 in 2 minute s P 0 P 5 P 1 P 4 P5 0.0293050222 0.1562934519 0.1875 (4 sf) Y Y Y Y X Alternatively: A person who arrived in the 2 minute period has an equal chance to arrive in the 1 st or 2nd min.
