Examiners report

Most candidates could state whether the data was discrete or continuous and find the mode however

the calculations to find the mean, median and standard deviation appeared problematic for some

candidates. A significant number of candidates gave the mode as 37 rather than 0. Many did not appear

to use their graph and some obtained the incorrect value of 1.47 from their graphic display calculator.

Examiners report

This question was very well attempted by a significant majority of candidates. Many good and accurate

attempts at plotting a scatter diagram were seen in part (a). However, a minority of candidates chose

not to use graph paper but instead used their answer book. These candidates achieved, at most, one

mark for that part question. Many correct answers were seen in parts (b) and (d) reflecting good use of

the graphic display calculator. Whilst many candidates realized that the line of regression passes

through the point M, a significant number of candidates seemed to draw their line ‘by eye’ rather than

using the equation found in part (d) and, as a consequence for many, their straight line (or projected

line) did not fall within the required tolerances for the second mark. Many candidates understood the

requirements for part (f) and full marks were seen on a majority of scripts. Those candidates, however,

who used their graph instead scored, at most, two marks here. Many candidates seemed to be well-

drilled in giving a suitable reason in part (f) and ‘within the data range’ or a ‘strong correlation’ were

frequently seen. Percentage error caused very few problems for candidates and many correct answers

were seen in part (h).

confused IQR with range. Only the very strongest candidates were able to deduce from a box and
