QUESTION 1

A study was conducted to investigate the average number of hours per week an exercise
bicycle is used in comparison to the number of months the bicycle has been owned. The
data below was collected.
Number of months 1 5 7 4 9 14 5 11 3 6
owned
Average number of 8 4,5 3 6 2 1,5 7 4 6,5 4
hours per week used
Average number of hours per week

1.1 Comment on the trend of the data. (1)


1.2 Determine the mean number of months the bicycle has been owned. (2)
1.3 Determine the standard deviation for number of months the bicycle has been owned (2)
1.4 Calculate the number of months the bicycle has been owned that lies between ONE standard
deviation from the mean. (4)
1.5 Determine quartile 1 and quartile 2 of the number months the bicycle has been owned. (2) [11]

QUESTION 2
A Mathematics teacher wants to create a model by which she can predict a learner’s
final marks. She decided to use her 2015 results to create the model.
Preparatory
55 35 67 85 91 48 78 72 15 75 69 37
exam (x)
Final exam
57 50 74 80 92 50 80 81 23 80 75 42
(y)

2.1 Determine the equation of the least squares regression line in a form of y  a  bx (3)
2.2 Use the equation of the regression line to predict the final exam mark for a
learner who attained 46% in the preparatory examination. (2)
2.3 Could you use this equation to estimate the preparatory exam mark for a
learner who attained 73% in the final exam? Give a reason for your answer. (2)
2.4 Show that the point ( x ; y ) lies on the regression line. (4)
