(a) A group of 80 students each completed a task. The table shows the time, t minutes, each student took to complete the task. Time (t minutes) | 20 < t ≤ 40 | 40 < t ≤ 60 | 60 < t ≤ 80 | 80 < t ≤ 100 | 100 < t ≤ 120 -----------------|-------------|-------------|-------------|---------------|---------------- Frequency | 10 | 20 | 34 | 12 | 4
- (a)(i)On the grid, draw a cumulative frequency diagram to represent this information. [Grid with axes labeled Cumulative frequency and Time (minutes)][3]
- (a)(ii)(a)the median,[1]
- (a)(ii)(b)the interquartile range.[2]
- (b)(i)Calculate the mean.[2]
- (b)(ii)One of the adults is selected at random. Find the probability that this adult made more than 3 errors.[1]
- (b)(iii)Two of the adults are selected at random. Find the probability that they each made exactly one error.[2]

Mark scheme
Marking points from the official mark scheme (Oct/Nov 2020). The mark or mark type is shown in brackets.
- [3] B2 for at least 4 correct points plotted; or B1 for 10, 30, 64, 76, 80 soi; Correct smooth curve drawn.
- [1] Correct reading at CF of 40 from their cumulative frequency diagram.
- [2] FT their cumulative frequency diagram; B1FT for correct reading of their LQ or their UQ; Final answer 24 to 28.
- [2] M1 for ([0 × 24] + 1 × 30 + 2 × 50 + 3 × 32 + 4 × 16 + 5 × 8) ÷ 160; Final answer 2.0625 or 2.063 or 2 1/16.
- [1] (16 + 8) / 160 or 24/160 oe.
- [2] M1 for 30/160 * 29/159 oe; Final answer 29/848 oe.
