A number of particular articles have been classified according to their weights.

After drying for two weeks, the same articles have again been weighed and

similarly classified. It is known that the median weight in the first weighing

was 20.83 gm while in the second weighing it was 17.35 gm. Some

frequencies a and b in the first weighing and x and y in the second are missing.

It is known that a = 1/3x and b = 1/2 y. Find out the values of the missing

frequencies.


Question 2

The battery standby duration (in hours) of a new model of cell phone is known to be normally distributed. Ten pieces of such new model of cell phone supplied from the manufacturer are randomly chosen and the actual standby durations are recorded as below:


48.2   47.8   45.6   47.2   49.3

51.2   44.2   45.4   49.2   43.6


(a)        Calculate the unbiased estimates of population mean and standard deviation of battery standby duration (in hours) of the new cell phone.

(4 marks)


(b)        The manufacturer claimed that this new model of cell phone has the mean battery standby duration of longer than 46.5 hours. Test at 1% significance level if this claim is true.
