We need a sample size of 10000 0.05 500×= Note that 10000/500 20= Thus, first customer is selected by r andomly generating a number from 1 to 20 inclusive, say 4. Then every 20 th customer from the 4 th customer will be included in the sample. In other words, the sample of 500 will consist of the 4th, 24th, 44th , … 9984th customers. (ii) Advantage: customers of different first names (which has relation with religion and race as well) have equal chance of being represented. Disadvantage: Any customer who is not able to make it for the survey would result in re -sampling which may be time

After the brothers left, there are 3 goalkeepers and 5 attackers. Case 1: A serves as a possible midfielder There are 4 midfielders and 8 defenders 38 4 5 14 24 6300CC CC = possible teams Case 2: A serves as a possible defender There are 3 midfielders and 9 defenders 39 3 5 1424 5670CCCC = possible teams Number of possible teams without A = 38 3 5 1424 3150CCCC = Total: 6300 + 5670 – 3150 = 8820 Note that teams formed without A is counted twice in Cases 1 and 2.

Question 8 No. Suggested Solution Remarks for Student (a)(i) (ii) (b)(i) Product moment correlation coefficient between m and P = –0.9470 (4dp) Product moment correlation coefficient between lnm and P = –0.9749 (4dp) y x O y x O
8 | Page (ii) –0.9749 is nearer to –1 compared to –0.9470. The scatter diagram of P on m also suggest a non-linear relationship between the 2 variables. Thus P = c lnm + d is the better model. 195693.5593 33659.72805ln 196000 33700ln (3 s.f.) Pm Pm = − = − (iii) From GC, estimated price is $64015.93 ≈ $64000 (3 s.f.)
