PROBABILITY & STATISTICS
(CHEM, CIVIL, IT, MECH, TT, CSE)
Time: 150 Min Max. Marks: 80M
SECTION – A
Answer all Four questions 4×10M=40M

1. In an UPSC exam conducted for 100 marks number of candidate who secured more
than a certain score is given below.
Scores (x) 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80
No. of candidates scored more than x 150 140 10 80 80 70 30 14 0
0
a) Convert the data into class intervals.
b) Calculate Karl Pearson’s coefficient of Skewness for above data.
c) Is the data aboveSymmetric? Verify.

2. The marks obtained by ten students in Thermodynamics and Heat Transfer are as
follows:

Marks\Serial Number 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Thermodynamics 7 30 60 8 53 1 40 3 48 35
5 0 5 8
Heat Transfer 4 54 91 5 63 3 43 4 44 85
5 8 5 5

a) Does this data show that a student good in Thermodynamics can get good marks in
Heat transfer? Support your answer with an appropriate statistical measure.
b) Bring out a linear relation between marks in Thermodynamics and marks in Heat
Transfer, assuming that they are statistically related to each other.

3. a) Determine the value of K for which given f(x) can be a Probability Distribution function

If f(x) = then find P (0.1 <x< 0.2).


b) A random variable has the following distribution table is
X= x 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

P(X=x) 0 K 2K 2K 3K K2 2K2 7K2+K

Find (i)K , (ii) P(0<x<5).

4. The 2012 Restaurant Industry Forecast takes a closer look at today’s consumers. Based on
a 2011 National Restaurant Association survey, American adults are categorized into one
of three consumer Segments (optimistic, cautious, and hunkered down) based on their
financial situation, current spending behaviour, and economic outlook, as well as the
geographic region where they reside. Suppose the results, based on a sample 50 American
adults, are as follows:
South West Midwest Northeast
Hunkered down 4 6 4
Cautious 8 5 2
Optimistic 6 11 4

a) At the 0.01 level of significance, test is there evidence of a significant relationship


between consumer segment and geographic region?
b) If the level of significance is decreased to 0.05 then study the decision.

Answer all Two questions 2×20M=40M

5. A manufacturer of Incandescent Lamps wants to assure that the lamps produced from his
plant have an average life time of at least 1000 hrs. To support his claim, a sample of 40
lamps of a batch of production is tested for their lifetimes as given here under.
Life in Hours of 40 Incandescent Lamps
920 972 1170 902 702 521 930 1021 901 780
948 1035 929 958 923 933 807 999 1324 1106
918 1045 1102 1022 811 928 954 932 818 704
1156 1092 956 978 1333 830 1063 1035 1102 900

a) Classify the above sample into class intervals of appropriate width.


b) then find i) mean and ii) standard deviation of the given data.
c) From the sample data calculate the probability for a Lamp to have a life time of
i) less than 650 hours ii) more than 1000 hours using Normal Distribution.
d) Can the claim of the Manufacturer be accepted? Test at 5% level of significance.

6. a) There is a 1% probability for a hard drive to crash. Therefore, it has two backups, each
having a 2% probability to crash, and all three components are independent of each
other. The stored information is lost only in an unfortunate situation when all three
devices crash. What is the probability that the information is saved?

b) Ninety percent of flights depart on time. Eighty percent of flights arrive on time.
Seventy-five percent of flights depart on time and arrive on time.
(i) You are meeting a flight that departed on time. What is the probability that it will
arrive on time?
(ii) You have met a flight, and it arrived on time. What is the probability that it
