Question 650701: 5. max went to the mcg to practice his cricket max has determined that his prob of hitting a 4 of any ball when playing cricket is 0.07 wat is the lowest number of balls he must face to ensure that the prob of hitting more than 4 4’s is more than 0.8.
A 4
B 15
C 45
d 65
e 95
B) explain why A could not correct

A 0
B 0.75
C 1
D 1.5
E 2
B) explain why A is not correct
C) If the mean was found instead of the mode, which answer would be correct.










8. Pr(X<.5|X<1), correct to 4 dp
A 0.0781
B 0.1563
C 0.1582
D 0.3125
E 0.3164
B) using a sketch graph, explain why A is not correct
C) Keeping the question conditional, vary the it so that A is the solution











9. after the formal, tiff was evaluating fashion sense, she gave them ratings out of 50, rating were normally distributed with a mean of 30 and a variance of 49, if tiff awarded the best 8% a A+, then her cut off score to the nearest interger, for an A+ would have been.
A 10
B 20
C 35
D 40
E 50
B) Using a sketch graph, explain why A is not correct
C) change the wording of the questionn so B is correct








10.The random variable X has a normal distribution with mean 10 and Standard dev. 2, the prob that X is less than 5 given that it is less than 10 is closest to.
A 0.0062
B 0.0124
C 0.4969
D 0.5000
E 0.9938
B) Using a sketch graph explain why D is not correct

11.Past months indicate that if it rains on a particular day there is an 80% chance that it will rain the next day. If it does not rain on a particular day, the probability that it will rain the next day is p%. It rained on Monday and the probability that it rained on the following Wednesday was 65%. The value of p is:
A 5
B 10
C 15
D 20
E 35
B) Alter the question by changing either the 80% or the 65% or both so that D is correct.




12.The prob mr.bettiol wins any game is 0.4, no game can be a draw, if the prob that mr.purcell wins no game is less than 0.01, then minimum number games they play is equal to.
A 5
B 6
C 7
D 9
E 10
B) Only change the prob of mr.bettiol winning a game from 0.4, so that answer E is correct.

C Pr(Z>-1.25)
D Pr(Z<2)
E 1-Pr(Z<2)
B) What is the error if A was selected
C) Change the question so that D is correct.


15.She only runs north or east. If she run north for 1 block, the prob she will turn east at the nearest intersection is 0.6. if she runs east for 1 block, the prob that she will turn north at the nearest intersection is 0.75.
