1. A sixth form college has 84 students in Year 12 and 56 students in Year 13

DO NOT WRITE IN THIS AREA


The head teacher selects a stratified sample of 40 students, stratified by year group.
(a) Describe how this sample could be taken.
(3)
The head teacher is investigating the relationship between the amount of sleep, s hours,
that each student had the night before they took an aptitude test and their performance in
the test, p marks.
For the sample of 40 students, he finds the equation of the regression line of p on s to be

p = 26.1 + 5.60s

(b) With reference to this equation, describe the effect that an extra 0.5 hours of sleep
may have, on average, on a student’s performance in the aptitude test.
(1)
(c) Describe one limitation of this regression model.

daily total rainfall in Hurn for May to October 2015
(a) Using your knowledge of the large data set, explain why Joshua needs to clean the
data before calculating the mean.

Using the information from the large data set, he produces the grouped frequency table below.

Daily total rainfall (r mm) Frequency Midpoint (x mm)

0 r 0.5 121 0.25

0.5 r 1.0 10 0.75

total rainfall.

of a mean from a grouped frequency table.
(ii) Using your knowledge of the large data set, explain why this assumption does not
hold in this case. DO NOT WRITE IN THIS AREA

(iii) State, giving a reason, whether you would expect the actual mean daily total
rainfall in Hurn for May to October 2015 to be larger than, smaller than or the
same as an estimate based on the grouped frequency table.

5. Past records show that 15% of customers at a shop buy chocolate. The shopkeeper believes
that moving the chocolate closer to the till will increase the proportion of customers buying
chocolate.

DO NOT WRITE IN THIS AREA


After moving the chocolate closer to the till, a random sample of 30 customers is taken
and 8 of them are found to have bought chocolate.
Julie carries out a hypothesis test, at the 5% level of significance, to test the shopkeeper’s belief.
Julie’s hypothesis test is shown below.
H0 : p = 0.15
H1 : p 0.15
Let X = the number of customers who buy chocolate.
X ~ B(30, 0.15)
P(X = 8) = 0.0420
0.0420 0.05 so reject H0

There is sufficient evidence to suggest that the proportion of customers buying
chocolate has increased.
(a) Identify the first two errors that Julie has made in her hypothesis test.
(2)
(b) Explain whether or not these errors will affect the conclusion of her hypothesis test.
Give a reason for your answer.

(c) Find, using a 5% level of significance, the critical region for a one-tailed test of the
shopkeeper’s belief. The probability in the tail should be less than 0.05

1. At time t = 0, a parachutist falls vertically from rest from a helicopter which is hovering

DO NOT WRITE IN THIS AREA


at a height of 550 m above horizontal ground.
The parachutist, who is modelled as a particle, falls for 3 seconds before her parachute opens.
While she is falling, and before her parachute opens, she is modelled as falling freely
under gravity.
The acceleration due to gravity is modelled as being 10 m s–2.
(a) Using this model, find the speed of the parachutist at the instant her parachute opens.
(1)
When her parachute is open, the parachutist continues to fall vertically.
Immediately after her parachute opens, she decelerates at 12 m s–2 for 2 seconds before
reaching a constant speed and she reaches the ground with this speed.
The total time taken by the parachutist to fall the 550 m from the helicopter to the ground
is T seconds.

DO NOT WRITE IN THIS AREA


(b) Sketch a speed-time graph for the motion of the parachutist for 0 t T.
(2)
(c) Find, to the nearest whole number, the value of T.
(5)
In a refinement of the model of the motion of the parachutist, the effect of air resistance
is included before her parachute opens and this refined model is now used to find a new
value of T.
(d) How would this new value of T compare with the value found, using the initial model,
in part (c)?
(1)
(e) Suggest one further refinement to the model, apart from air resistance, to make the
model more realistic.

Figure 1

A small ball, P, of mass 0.8 kg, is held at rest on a smooth horizontal table and is attached
to one end of a thin rope.

DO NOT WRITE IN THIS AREA


The rope passes over a pulley that is fixed at the edge of the table.
The other end of the rope is attached to another small ball, Q, of mass 0.6 kg, that hangs
freely below the pulley.
Ball P is released from rest, with the rope taut, with P at a distance of 1.5 m from the
pulley and with Q at a height of 0.4 m above the horizontal floor, as shown in Figure 1.
Ball Q descends, hits the floor and does not rebound.
The balls are modelled as particles, the rope as a light and inextensible string and the pulley
as small and smooth.
Using this model,
(a) show that the acceleration of Q, as it falls, is 4.2 m s–2
(5)
(b) find the time taken by P to hit the pulley from the instant when P is released.
