As part of an Art Project, a student designed a letterbox in the form of a prism. The
cross-section forms a pentagon with two vertical sides of equal height, y cm, and two
slant edges of equal length, 5x cm. The remaining faces are rectangles. A rectangular
sheet of cardboard, ABCD, of area 1500 cm2, is folded to make the surface
ABCD of the prism as shown in the diagram. The front, back and
bottom surfaces are made of another material.
If the length of the letterbox is 30 cm and the width is 6x cm,

In a factory of 1500 employees, there are 150 management staff, 300 administrative
staff and 1050 production workers. A survey is to be taken to check the factorys
working conditions. A sample of 30 employees is needed for the survey. The factory
uses a list with all the employees names arranged in alphabetical order.
(i)
One method of obtaining this sample is to select every fiftieth name on the
name list. Identify the sampling method used here. Give a reason why the
sample obtained may not be a good representation of the employees.

Some time later, the manufacturer launched another new drink. The
manufacturer wants a weekly sale of $ 500 000 for this new drink. Using the
regression line of y on x, estimate the amount of money the manufacturer has
to spend on advertising. Comment on the reliability of the estimate.

A bag contains red and green balls. An experiment is conducted where n balls
are drawn one by one with replacement. The colour of the ball drawn is noted
before it is placed back in the bag. The random variable X denotes the number
of red balls drawn. When the experiment was repeated a large number of
times, it was found that the mean number of red balls drawn is 10.8 and the
variance is 4.32. Find P( X 16).

The weekly sale of the soft drink is $89300 when no money is spent on advertising.
There is an increase of $111.8 in weekly sales for every dollar invested in
advertising.

Sub y 500 into y 89.2646 111.754 x
Then x 3.675353 .
The manufacturer has to spend $3680 on advertising.
Since y 500 is outside the range [130,450], the estimate is an extrapolation, it is
not reliable.
