Study Notes

Question 7: Pyramid Height

Rectangular-based right pyramid ABCDE.
AB = DC = 24 cm, AD = BC = 10 cm, AE = BE = CE = DE = 28 cm.
Height OE needs to be calculated.
OE is approximately 24.8 cm.

Question 8: Flag Area

String of seven flags: alternating black and white equilateral triangles.
Black flag edge length is double the white flag edge length.
Total area of black flags is four times the total area of white flags.

Question 1: Blood Pressure and Age

Data on blood pressure (low, normal, high) and age (under 50, 50 or over) for 110 adults.
11 adults under 50 have high blood pressure.
Percentage of adults under 50 with high blood pressure is approximately 19%.

Question 2: Variable Types

Blood pressure (low, normal, high) is a nominal variable.
Age (under 50 years, 50 years or over) is an ordinal variable.

Question 8: Job Allocation

Five children (Alan, Brianna, Chamath, Deidre, Ewen) assigned different jobs.
Time taken for each child to complete each job is given in a table.
Two possible job allocations minimize total time.
First child to finish could be either Deidre or Ewen.

Question 1: Shaded Area

Diagram shows a 10cm x 12cm rectangle with a 5cm x 5cm square cut out.
Shaded area is 85 square centimeters.

Question 9: Least Squares Line and Life Expectancy

Least squares line equation: life expectancy = 43.0 + 0.422 × HDI
Coefficient of determination: r² = 0.875
Statement "On average, life expectancy increases by 43.0 years for each 10-point increase in the Human Development Index" is not true.

Question 10: Residual Calculation

Life expectancy in Australia (2011): 81.8 years, HDI: 92.9
Using the least squares line, the predicted life expectancy is approximately 82.2.
Residual is closest to -0.4.

Question 12: Carbon Dioxide Emissions and HDI

There's an association between carbon dioxide emissions and HDI.
Countries with higher HDIs tend to have higher carbon dioxide emissions.

Question 13: Time Series Plot

Time series plot shows mean temperature over time.
Pattern shows seasonality with irregular fluctuations.

Question 14: Seasonal Index

Seasonal index for Wednesday is 0.84.
This means the number of meals served on Wednesday is 16% more than the daily average.
