of 411 At a car rental firm, there are 5 cars and 3 vans available each day. The demand for cars follows a Poisson distribution with a mean of 2 on a weekday and a mean of 5 per day on weekends. The demand for vans follows a Poisson distribution with a mean of 2 on any day of the week. The demand for cars and the demand for vans on any day are independent.
(i) Find the probability that, on a particular weekday, the demand for cars is 5. [1] (ii) Find the least number of cars the rental firm should have to meet the demand on a
particular weekday with at least a probability of 0.9. [2] (iii) Using a suitable approximation, find the probability that, out of 104 Saturdays,
there are at least 50 days in which the total demand for vehicles exceeds 6 each
day. [4]
(iv) Find the probability that, on a Wednesday, 5 cars are hired out given that at most 6 vehicles were hired out on that day. [4]

(ii) The Head of Department of Student Well-being claims that the population mean weekly time spent on social media exceeds 0, where 0 is a constant.
Use the earlier sample to determine, correct to 1 decimal place, the least value of 0
in order for the claim not to be valid at 5% level of significance. [4]
13 An experiment was conducted to investigate how the mass of a drug in a human body varies with time, measured from when the drug is given. The results are summarised in the following table.

x (milligrams) 1.36 0.93 0.72 0.50 0.39 0.31 0.26 0.21
(i) Draw a scatter diagram for the data. [2] (ii) It is desirable to predict the mass of the drug in the long run. Explain why, in this
context, neither a linear nor a quadratic model is likely to be appropriate. [2] (iii) It is decided that a model of the form t x a
b will be used. Calculate theleast squares estimates of a and b and estimate the mass of the drug after two
hours. [3]
(iv) Give an interpretation, in context, of the value of a. [1]

- dividing the range of ages into several groups (strata such as 13-16, 17-19, 20-22, 23-30, 31-50 etc)
- assigning a quota for each age group with a total of 50
- by waiting outside a library and picking citizens at the journalist’s discretion until all the quotas are met.
One disadvantage is that the journalist may likely have collected a biased sample of citizens due to his/her non random selection process. For example, he/she might choose people that he/she thought are more approachable.
Stratified sampling is not realistic in this context because it is difficult to obtain the sampling frame.
