Number of ways to arrange the green, yellow and purple tiles within the unit = 5! 3! Arranging the unit with the rest of the tiles = 7! 3!3! Thus number of possible arrangements for the tiles = 5! 7! 3! 3!3! =2800
(ii)Number of ways to arrange the 3 red, 3 green, 1 yellow and 1 purple tile = 8! 3!3! Number of ways to slot in the blue tiles = 9 3 Number of possible arrangements such that no blue tiles are placed next to another = 8! 3!3! 9 3 =94080 (iii) Number of possible arrangements such that a red tile at the beginning and another red tile at the end of the line = (3 3 3)! 3!3! = 10080 5(b) (i) Number of ways = 10 1 ! 362880 (ii) Insertion method Number of ways 7 27 1 ! 2! 2! 60480C (iii) Number of ways 9 1 ! 10 2! 806400 6(i) P(same colour) 45 22 9 2 4 9 CC C Die is 1 Die is 1 Die is not 1 Die is not 1 Die is 1 5 6 Same colour Different colour Die is not 1 Die is not 1 Die is 1 1 6 4 9 5 9 1 6 1 6 1 6 5 6 5 6 5 6

Then X ~ B(2, 1 6 ). Mean number of DVDs = 112 63 7(i) 0.946r 7(ii) The scatter diagram shows that the relationship between t and x is non-linear. 7(iii) From the scatter diagram, we see that y decreases as x increases, which is the case for model A ( ,0bx a b t ). Hence model A is appropriate. 7(iv) 0.75046151 11.0423697 11.04236970.75046151 a b x t 11.04236970.75046151 0.9958475033 0.99645x This estimate is reliable since 45t is between the range of values of t from 5 to 80, and the product moment correlation coefficient between x and t is 0.9754 (3 s.f.), which suggests a strong positive linear correlation between x and t. 8(a) Let I be the r.v. ‘no. of packets of macademia nuts sold in a week’.

Required probability = P(exactly 3 bonuses within the first 10 wks & bonus in the 11th wk) = P(exactly 3 bonuses within the first 10 wks) × P(bonus in the 11th wk) 3710 3 P 11 1 P 11 P 11 0.00668C I I I Or, Let X = number of weeks (out of 10) where bonus is paid. X ~ B(10, P(I > 11)) P(exactly 3 bonuses within the first 10 wks & bonus in the 11th wk) = P(exactly 3 bonuses within the first 10 wks) × P(bonus in the 11th wk) = P(X = 3) × P(I > 11) = 0.00668 8b(i) Let B( , )X n p Given 3, (1 ) 2.85 60, 0.05np np p n p For X o 60 is large (>50) and is small , 3 5, P 3 approximately n p np X Similarly for Y o 80 is large (>50) and 0.02 is small , 1 .6 5, P 1.6 approximately n p np Y

For each of the classes for Science faculty, P(a student being selected) = 6 30 . Since the probabilities of selection is not common, the sample is not random. Line up the 240 students in some order (eg alphabetical order of name). From the first 240 460 students, select one randomly. Thereafter, select the next 4th student till 60 are selected. 11(i) Let X be the volume of coffee dispensed in a cup (in ml) with population mean 0 1 : 100 : 100 H H Assumption: 2~,XN Test Statistic: XT s n Level of significance: 5%
Reject H0 if p-value < 0.05 Under H0, using GC, p-value = 0.0550537= 0.0551 (3 s.f) Since p-value=0.0551>0.05, we do not reject H0 and conclude that there is insufficient evidence at 5% level of significance that the machine is dispensing too much coffee To conclude that the machine is dispensing too much coffee i.e. 100p value 5.51
