Hence, 1 97 0 97AAk . Therefore, 1 97 97e ktu k . Since u = 70 when t = 1, we have 170 97 97e 0.69220 (5 s.f. from GC)k kk Amount of water in the processing container when t = 2 = 2(0.6922)1 97 97e0.6922 = 105.03 litres Amount of water pumped in when t =2 = 200 litres Hence, amount of water processed = 200 – 105.03 - 6 litres = 89.0 litres (3 s.f.)

Since f is 1-1, the inverse function f -1 exist. Method 2 (using graphical test): Any horizontal line y = k intersects the graph of f at at most one point f is a one-one function the inverse function f -1 exist. ( Or : any horizontal line y =k, 01 4k , intersects the graph of f at exactly one point f is a one-one function the inverse function f -1 exist) To find the value of f -1(1), solve f(x) = 1 1(1 ) s i n 1 1 1 (rejected since 0) or 0 xx xx x 1f( 1 ) 0 (ii) At 0, f '(0) 1 and 1xy Equation of tangent to the curve y = f(x) at x = 0: y = x +1 (iii) At x = 1, we will use the symmetry properties of the curve of f and f -1 along y = x Equation of tangent to the curve y = f-1(x) at x = 1: x = y +1 y = x – 1

It will be difficult to get an exhaustive list of people of all age groups to do a proper stratification. (no sampling frame) Use Quota Sampling 8 (i) (ii) From GC, the product moment correlation coefficient = 0.940 (3 sig fig) (iii) The points in the scatter plot fits closely to the curve Btx Ae (left) and the r value is close to 1. Thus this model is suitable. Transformation of Btx Ae into a linear model: ln lnx AB t From GC, ln 1.71086 5.53, 0.0476AA B (iv) If t is increased by 5, the increase in x is as follows: ( 5) 5 5(0.0476) 1 (1.269) Bt o Bt B oo o xA e x Ae e x e x x The rate of chirps is estimated to increase by 26.9% from the rate before the temperature is increased. The estimate is not reliable because we are extrapolating beyond the region where the
data is collected and analyzed. (v) The value of r remains the same since it is not affected by any translation or scaling. 9 2~ (45000, 2000 )AN 2~ (30000,1850 )BN (i) 122 ~ (30000, 22845000)ABB N 122 25000 0.85224 0.852PA BB (3 sig fig) Assumption: The distributions of the lifespans of all televisions are independent of each other.
