(ii)(a)0.9809 (b)0.9960 (iii) The scatter diagram shows that S increases at an increasing rate as h increases, and for 2 S ch d = + , r ≈ 0.9960 which is closer to 1, so the model 2 S ch d = + is a better model. (iv) S = 0.000182 h 2 + 672 (v)1550 Estimate for when h = 2200 metres is not reliable since h = 2200 metres is outside the range of the g iven data and extrapolation is not a good practice. 8 Normal Distribution (i)0.309 (ii)0.214 (iii)0.303 (iv) 314 9 Hypothesis Testing (i) Every dustbin has an equal probability of being selected and the selections of each dustbin are made independently . (ii) Since 50 n = is large, by Central Limit Theorem , the mean mass of rubbish in dustbins will be approximately normally distributed. (iii) 18.49, 23.6 Since p -value = 0.013937 > 0.01, we do not reject H 0 and conclude that there is insufficient evidence at 1% level of significance to claim that there has been a reduction in the mass of rubbish in dustbins.
