  1. State and prove multiplication theorem.
  2. Student A can solve a problem in statistics in 4 out of 5 chances and B can do it in 2 out of 3 chances

If both A and B try the problem, find the probability that the problem will be solved.

 

  1. After correcting the proofs of the first 50 pages of a book, it is found that on the average there are 3

errors per 5 pages. Use poisson probabilities and estimate the number of pages with 0,1,2,3 errors in

the whole book of 1000 pages (e-0.6=.5488)

 

15.What is Sampling Technique ? Explain different types of Sampling.

SECTION   C                                  

Answer any TWO questions:                                                                                    (2 X 20  =  40 Marks)

 

19.(a) Given    (ABC) = 137;   (αBC) = 261; (AβC) = 313; (ABg) = 284; (Abg) = 417; (αBg) = 420;

(αbC)  =  490; (abg)  =  508; Find the frequencies (AB), (A) and N.                       (10)

 

19.(b) )   There are 3 boxes containing respectively 1 White,2 Red, 3 block; 2 white,3 red, 1 black ball;

3 white , 1 red  and 2 black ball. A box is chosen at random and from it two balls are drawn

At random. The two balls are 1 red and 1 white. What is the probability that they come from

(i) The first box (ii) second box  (iii) third box.                                                                   (10)

 

  1. (a) The customer accounts of a certain departmental store have an average balance of Rs.120 and a

standard deviation of Rs.40. Assuming that the account balances are normally distributed, find

  • What proportion of accounts is over Rs.150?
  • What proportion of accounts is between Rs.100 and Rs.150?
  • What proportion of accounts is between Rs.60 and Rs.90 ?                                 (10)

 

  1. (b) Random samples of 400 men and 600 women were asked whether they would like to have a fly-

over      near  their residence 200 men and 325 women were in favor of it. Test the equality of

proportion of men and    women in the proposal? Test at 5% level.                                       (10)

 

21.(a) The marks obtained by a group of 9 regular course students and  another group of 11 part- time

course students in a test are given below:

 

Regular 56 62 63 54 60 51 67 69 58    
Part time 62 70 71 62 60 56 75 64 72 68 66

 

 

 

Examine whether the marks obtained by regular students and part time students differ significantly at

5% level.                                                                                                                                           (10)

 

 

 

  1. (b) The number of defects defected in 20 items are given below

Item No     :  1   2   3    4     5    6   7    8     9    10    11     12    13    14   15   16   17    18   19   20

No. of defects:  2    0   4   1      0     0   8     1    2     0      6        0     2      1    0      3     2       1    0     2
