    QUESTION 1a) Do you not need to take the lower and upper bounds of the class intervals for a level?

    • @mathonify
      @mathonify  4 года назад +3

      Not for this question. Class boundaries are used for discrete data with class intervals like 10-20, 21-30.. where you have a "gap" between 20 and 21. Then you might use a class boundary.

    Question D - surely for linear interpolation is it 10.32-8/3 then multiplied by 8 ?

    • @mathonify
      @mathonify  4 года назад +1

      Maybe you are thinking of finding the median? But the question is asking how many days 1 s.d above mean. You just need an estimate of days that had more than 10.32 hours of sunshine. No linear interpolation needed

    • @mathonify
      @mathonify  4 года назад

      @Mirco Ma I can't think of a better way to explain it than to say it's a proportion. (11-10.32)/3 is the proportion of days above 10.32 hours of sunlight. given there are 8 days in that group, multiply by 8 to get an estimate of the number of days with more than 10.32 hours of sunlight.
      An example: suppose you have 10 friends and I tell you that 5 are above 160cm, and 3 are above 180cm. Estimate how many are taller than 170cm. You would say 2 are between 160-180cm. So your estimate would be that one of those is taller than 170cm. Therefore in total you have 4 friends taller than 170cm. That's just a quick example, probably there are better ways to explain it. If it is still confusing, I know there are other walk throughs of this paper. Sometimes a difference explanation will clear up confusion.

    Hi I don’t understand q8 part c, how did you get the equation 0.6-0.05t=0.35t, why would the i and j components be equal to each other? Many thanks.

    • @mathonify
      @mathonify  4 года назад +1

      In the question they say "when the boat is north-east of O". You need to understand what this means. I did my best to explain it briefly, but if you do not understand what "north-east of O" means, you will need to do some research into bearings. Once you understand what that means, you will see that "north-east of O" also means the i and j components are equal.

    For question 7 it says the particle moves up the plane so surely there must be a force acting up the slope right?

    • @mathonify
      @mathonify  4 года назад +1

      when it says "projected" this basically means pushed. So there was an initial push to get it moving up the slope but no sustained force to keep it moving up other than momentum from that first push.

    I do not understand how on question 1a how you got that height. I keep getting 8.8886666. I got the same width as 2.25 not 2.5 also. Can u help me please?

    • @mathonify
      @mathonify  4 года назад

      You can follow the method in the mark scheme if that makes more sense to you. It finds the frequency per 1cm^2 by dividing the frequency by total area. so for the third class total area is 8 x 1.5 = 12cm^2 (they give you those dimensions in the question) and frequency per 1cm^2 = frequency/area = 8/12 = 2/3.
      Then using that 2/3, if you have a frequency of 12, the area of the bar must then = 18cm^2. (because 12/(2/3) = 18). Then if the width is 2.5, the height will be 18/2.5 = 7.2
      Personally I find the method using ratios more straightforward, but maybe you would prefer that method. Question 1a in this paper is exactly the same: ruclips.net/video/Dseb6W2tWq4/видео.html if you wanted to practise another one using a method you prefer.

    On Q3, I’m using an fx-CG50 calc and I got half the value for the z score, instead I got 0.9799 or 0.98 why is this? As it done the next step for me by multiplying 0.5 to it?

    • @mathonify
      @mathonify  4 года назад +2

      With that calculator you are finding the boundary x value, not the z-score. So yes the .9799 is the 1.96 x 0.5. If you do want a z-score, make sure to leave the mean and standard deviation and 0 and 1.

      Maths Explained Thanks for the reply I’m really struggling with like Normal and Binomial Distributions, you make it so much easier than it is (practice). Like I get confused when u have to convert the binomial distribution to a normal one and visa versa. Distributions are the hardest part of stats for me especially when u add in hypothesis testing. Another question is how do I know when to use tables instead of calc like surely there must be a reason as to why u use tables instead of calculator because calc is so much easier.

    • @george1906
      @george1906 4 года назад

      Maths Explained Think I’ve answered my own question because when X~N(n,p) needs to be changed to binomial distribution you do m=np then SD^2 = np(1-p) where SD=root of variance so it would be X~B(m,(root variance)^2) so when u put the value of SD in calculator u really are doing root variance, think I got confused in thing SD^2 was the value u put in calc. Where it’s meant to be SD or root of variance???

    You know If P(A) x P(B) doesn’t equal P(AnB) why are they not independent?

    • @mathonify
      @mathonify  4 года назад

      For me it's really in the name. If events are dependent, then the probability of A happening *depends* on if B happens or not. Therefore to work out P(A), you need to consider if B happened or not. This is called conditional probability. This is written as P(AlB). [The probability of A given B happened].
      If you want to work out P(AnB), you need to work out the P(AlB) x P(B). This does not equal P(A)xP(B).
      This series on conditional probability might be helpful: ruclips.net/video/xAXtD36VXL8/видео.html

      Maths Explained oh so if they’re dependent, the probs of A depends on if B happened or not. However when independent the probs of A doesn’t depend on whether B happened or not and therefore P(AnB) would be equal to P(AlB)????.
