2) Data and Chance:


 Calculate mean, median, mode, upper quartile, lower quartile and interquartile range
 Read and interpret scatter graphs, line graphs and box and whisker plots
 Investigate simple situations that involve elements of chance.
 Probability Trees, use simple fractions and percentages to describe probabilities.

3) Geometric Reasoning
 Know and use the following basic angle rules, (vertically opposite angles, angles on a
straight line, angles in a triangle, angles at a point, isosceles triangles)
 Know and use the three angle rules for parallel lines (alternate, corresponding, co-
interior)

EXAM REVISION ANSWER BOOKLET #1
Question: I wonder if male students in NZ have longer arm spans than female students in NZ?
Arm_Span by Gender

Min 1st Qu. Median Mean 3rd Qu. Max.


F 104 133.5 151.5 147.23 159 186
M 103 137 153.5 153.65 168.5 195

1) Shift (overlap):
A = In this sample, the males box is shifted to the right of the females box. There is some overlap in the
boxes.
M = The males LQ, Median and UQ are all higher than the females. The LQ is 3.5cm higher, the median is
2cm higher and the UQ is 9.5cm higher.
E = This shows that the males tend to have slightly longer arm lengths
2) Spread:
A = In this sample, the males box is more spread than the females box.
M = The males interquartile range (IQR) is 31.5cm while the females IQR is only 25.5cm.
E = This shows that the males have more variety of arm lengths while the girls are more the same.
3) Shape:
A = In this sample the males have two mounds while the females seem to have one.
M = The females mound is at 155cm while the male mounds are at 135cm and 152cm.
E = This shows that the most common arm length for females is 155cm and males do not have a most
common arm length.
4) Special:
A = There are three females that appear to have much longer arm lengths than the rest of the females.
M = The three females have arm lengths of 181 -189 cm
E = These students could be quite tall as your arm length is related to your height.
5) Conclusion:
A = I cannot make the call that male students in NZ have longer arm spans than female students in NZ.
M = This is because the boxes in my sample overlap
E = If I took another sample, I would get different results, but my conclusion should be the same.
Relationship Investigation
Problem: Is there a relationship between the height and weight of rugby players?
Plan: The height is measured in meters and the weight is measured in kgs.
Display (Graph):

Analysis:
1) Direction: The relationship between the height and weight of rugby players is positive.
This is shown by the points going in an upwards direction.

2) Strength: The strength of the relationship between the height and weight of rugby
players is moderate. This is shown by some of the points being close to the line but
there is still some scatter with points being away from the line. This shows that there
is a lot of scatter with points being away from the line. This shows that there is a lot of
different weights for the same height.

3) Prediction: I predict that a rugby player who is 1.9m tall will weigh just over 100 kgs. I
think this prediction is pretty good as the line is in the middle of the data. I wouldn’t
want to predict for a player that is 1.7m taller as there is no data to compare it to.

4) Conclusion: In conclusion, the relationship between the height and weight of a rugby
player is positive and moderate. As the height of the player increases, the weight also
tends to increase. I would expect this as you get taller, your bones and muscles also
increase therefore you would weigh more.
