4 a) Find the probability that at most 5 defective components will be found in 7 Marks
a lot of 200. If experience shows that 2% of such components are
defective. Also find the probability of more than five defective
components.

7 a) Define the following: 8 Marks

1
 i) population and samples
ii) parameters and statistics
iii) critical region
iv) degrees of freedom
b) The mean of two large samples of sizes 1000 and 2000 members are 67.5 6 Marks
inches and 68 inches respectively. Can the samples be rewarded as drawn
from the same population of standard deviation 2.5 inches?
(OR)
8 a) In two large populations, there are 30% and 25% respectively of fair hired 7 Marks
People. Is this difference likely to be hidden in samples of 1200 and 900
respectively from the two populations?
b) A coin was tossed 960 times and returned heads 183 times. Test the 7 Marks
hypotheses that the coin is unbiased at 0.05 level of significance.

9 a) A random sample from a company’s very extensive files shows that the 7 Marks
orders for a certain kind of machinery were filled, respectively in
10, 12, 19, 14, 15, 18, 11 and 13 days. Use the level of significance
a = 0.01 to test the claim that on the average such orders are filled in
10.5 days. Assume normality.
b) The number of automobile accidents per week in a certain community are 7 Marks
as follows: 12, 8, 20, 2, 14, 10, 15, 6, 9, 4. Are these frequencies in
agreement with the belief that accident conditions were the same during
this 10 week period.
(OR)
10 a) In one sample of 10 observations from a normal population, the sum of 6 Marks
the squares of the deviations of the sample values from the sample mean
is 102.4 and in another sample of 12 observations from another normal
population, the sum of the squares of the deviations of the sample values
from the sample mean is 120.5. Examine whether the two normal
populations have the same variance.
b) On the basis of information given below about the treatment of 200 8 Marks
patients suffering from a disease, state whether the new treatment is
comparatively superior to the conventional treatment.
