2. The mean of 5 observations is 3 and variance is 2. If three of them
are 1, 3 and5. Find the remaining two. 
Two degrees of freedom (the two missing observations that we'll call x and y) but two
parameters (variance and mean) so the problem has a unique solution.

Now to solve it using mathematical reasoning:

Mean = 3 = (x+y+1+3+5)/5

Which is equivalent to

x+y = 15 - 9 = 6

We have thus reduced the dimension of the problem by removing a degree of freedom,
since y can be expressed in terms of x:

y=6-x

Let's now use the variance. Since the problem is not based on estimation, it is normal to
assume variance formulas.

Value Value – mean /Value - mean/ /Value -


mean/^2

1 1-3 2 4

3 3-3 0 0

5 5-3 2 4

X x-3 x-3 X^2 -6x+9

Y y-3 y-3 Y^2 -6y+9

Var = (4+0+4+ X^2 -6x+9+ Y^2 -6y+9) / 5

But Y=6-x

Var= (8 + X^2 -6x+9+ (6-x)^2 – 6(6-x) +9)

= (8+9+9+x^2+x^2- 6x -12x+6x)

Var= (2x^2 – 12x +26)/5

2 = (2x^2 – 12x +26)/5


10 =2x^2 – 12x +26

=2x^2 – 12x +26 -10=2x^2 – 12x +16= x^2 – 6x +8

 (x-2) (x-4) =0

Therefore, the value of x will be either x=2 or x=4

Then the value of y will be, Either Y=6-x=6-2=4 or Y=6-x=6-4=2

If X=2 then Y=4 and If X=4 then Y=2.

Therefore, the remaining two values are Two (2) and Four (4).

6. The registrar in Unity University wants give I.D. numbers having


5 digits to students. If the first 2 digits are to be filled in by
English letters excluding “O” and the rest by 3 numbers. How
many I.D. card numbers are available?

If repetition is allowed such as “AA151”, “CC022”, “DD555” or “ZZ111”, “KL222”,


“MM323”
First digit =26 alphabets -1(excluding letter “o”) =25
Second digit =26 alphabets -1(excluding letter “o”) =25
Third digit = Numbers from 0-9=10
Fourth digit = Numbers from 0-9=10
Fifth digit = Numbers from 0-9=10
Number of Id cards available =25*25*10*10*10
=625,000
Hence Id numbers include numbers like 77,88,111, for example students in
Admas university have ID number such as 1199/19, 1977/19 we can consider
repetition is allowed and there will be 625,000possible combination for the 2
letters excluding “o” and the 3 numbers.
11. The mean and variance of a binomial distribution are 3 and 2 respectively. Find the
probability that the variety takes values:
a. Less than or equal to 2.
b. Greater than or equal to 7.
Since, we know that in binomial distribution, mean=np, variance=npq

1. where n=total no of trials.


2. p= probability of success.
3. q=probability of failure,(p+q=1).
Now from question, We need to find the number of trials and the probability of success at
an individual trial. These are given by the equations 3=np, 2=np(1−p). This gives 1−p=2/3
1−p=2/3, p=1/3and therefore, n=9.

np=3, npq=2 , solving these two we get,

n=9, p=(1/3) ,q=(2/3) .

we know the pdf of binomial distribution is written as; nCx * (p)^x *(q)^n-x.

Hence we write f(x)=9Cx * (1/3)^x *(2/3)^9-x. (from question)

A) probability of value less than or equals to 2 is:


f(x<=2) = {f (0)} + {f (1)} +{f(2)}.

= {9C0 * (1/3) ^0 *(2/3) ^9} + {9C1 * (1/3) ^1 * (2/3) ^8} + {9C2 * (1/3) ^2 * (2/3) ^7}

But 9Co =9! /0! (9-0)! =9! / 9! = 1

9C1 = 9! / 1! (9-1!) = 9! / 8! = 9

9C2 = 9! / 2! (9-2)! =9! / 2!7! =36

= (2/3) ^9 + (9(2/3) ^8) *(1/3) + (36(2/3) ^7) *(1/3) ^2

=9,728 / 19,683

B) Greater than or equal to seven is:


f(x>=7) = {f (7)} +{f(8)} +{f(9)}

= {9C7 (1/3)^7 *(2/3)^2} + {9C8 (1/3)^8 *(2/3)^1} +{9C9 (1/3)^9 * (2/3)^0}

But 9C7 =9! / 7! (9-7)! =9! / 7!2! =36

9C8=9! / 8! (9-8!) = 9! / 8! = 9
9C9=9! /9! (9-9)! =9! / 9! = 1

= {36 (1/3)^7 *(2/3)^2} + {9 (1/3)^8 *(2/3)^1} +{(1/3)^9 * (2/3)^0}


= (36 *(1/3)^7) * (2/3)^2 + 9 (1/3)^8 *(2/3)^1 + (1/3)^9
=163 / 19,683

15. If scores are normally distributed and a student’s score in


standard unit is 0.8. What percentage of students is expected to score
higher than him?

If scores are normally distributed we can use the standard normal table to identify the values
below the unit and above the unit. Here, we are given the standard unit value but not mean and
standard deviation. So we can use the standard value as z value.
To find proportion of observations from the standard normal distribution that are less than 0.8
we use table value:
P(z<0.8) =0.7881
This means the probability of a z score being lower than, the standard unit, 0.8 is 0.7881
Simply putting this into percentage, 78.81% of the students has a z score at or below 0.8
To find percentage of students who are expected to score higher than him can be
calculated by:
=100% - percentage of the students has a z score at or below 0.8
=100% - 78.81%
=21.19%

Students who are expected to score higher than him are 21.19% in percentage

16. If a set of grades on a Stat. exam are approximately normally


distributed with a mean of 74 and standard deviation of 7.9. Find

S.d = standard deviation


A) The lowest passing grade if the lowest 10% of the students are
given F’s.
Normal distribution mean=74, S.d =7.9
P(x<xo) = 0.1
P((x-mean)/s. d < (xo – mean)/s.d) = 0.1
P (z< (xo – mean)/s. d) = 0.1
(xo – mean)/s.d = invNorm(0.1)
xo =mean + s.d * invNorm (0.1)
Using Z-table to get invNorm(0.1)= -1.282
Xo = 74+7.9*(-1.282)
= 63.872
Therefore, the lowest passing grade if the lowest 10% of the students are
given F is 63.872
B) The highest B if the top 5% are given A’s.
Normal distribution mean=74, S.d =7.9
P(x>xo) = 0.05, P(x<xo) = 0.95
P((x-mean)/s.d < (xo – mean)/s.d) = 0.95
P(z< (xo – mean)/s.d) = 0.95
(xo – mean)/s.d = invNorm(0.95)
xo =mean + s.d * invNorm (0.95)
Using Z-table to get invNorm(0.95)= 1.645
Xo = 74+7.9*(1.645)
=86.996
Therefore, the highest B if the top 5% are given A is 86.996
C)The lowest B if the top 10% of the students are given A’s and the
next 25% are given B’s
Normal distribution mean=74, S.d =7.9
P(x>xo) = 0.35, P(x<xo) = 0.65
P((x-mean)/s.d < (xo – mean)/s.d) = 0.65
P(z< (xo – mean)/s.d) = 0.65
(xo – mean)/s.d = invNorm(0.65)
xo =mean + s.d * invNorm (0.65)
Using Z-table to get invNorm(0.65)= 0.385
Xo = 74+7.9*(0.385)
=77.042
Therefore, the lowest B if the top 10% of the students are given A’s
and the next 25% are given B is 77.042
