I am just guessing btw. For y to be zero, either sin or cos have to be zero. Graph starts at zero as sin is zero. Then graph comes to zero when cos is zero. Which is at 2X=pi/2. Therefore x=pi/4. For one area the interval is of pi/4. For 40 A it must be 40/4=10pi. Is my answer correct?
unfortunately no :love:

You have to use your answer in the previous part (i)
i know that. but it is a 2 marks question and it was easy to spot that the answer is 10. just a few seconds of mental calculations and i came up with this answer. and it is correct. you can take the longer route if u want. i was too lazy to integrate that expression as u wanted the answer to the second part not the first.

In any rearrangement of the word ANEMIOUS, there are 5! ways to permute the vowels in the word. Only 1 of out these 5! ways is correct. Therefore, out of the 8! possible arrangement of the letters in the word ANEMIOUS, only 1/5! of these arrangements have the 5 vowels in alphabetical order. Thus, the number of ways to arrange ANEMIOUS, keeping the vowels in alphabetical order, is 8!/5! =336

Keeping the permutaion of vowels the same, there are 8 ways to arrange the first consonent, 7 for the second and 6 for the third consonent. So the answer will be 8*7*6=336
I used a different way to do but i got the same answer so i guess the answer will be correct.

This question is not from past papers it's from advanced level statistics by J.crawshaw and chambers.
Page no
Page 377 q6 and 9.
Q6)bags of flour packed by a particular machine have masses which are normally distributed with mean of 500g and standard deviation of 20g.2% of the bags are rejected for being underweight and one percent of the bags are rejected for being overweight?between what range of values should the mass of a bag of flour lie if it has to be accepted.


Q9)mean=400 and standard deviation is 8
A)find the limits within which the central 95% of the distribution lies.
B)find the inter quartile range of the distribution.



Plz solve these questions.thanks a lot!!

Please help me with this...
A committee of 5 people is to be chosen from 6 men and 4 women. In how many ways can this be done if there must be 3 men and 2women, and one particular woman refuses to be on the committee with one particular man?

Thanks in advance.

There must be three men, two women. For the three men, there are 6C3 combinations. For women there are 4C2 combinations. So the total is 6C3*4C2=120
Lets find in how many combinations can both man and woman be in the committee. If they both are selected, there are 5C2 combinations of men. And 3C1 combinations of women. So there are 30 combinations in which both are together. If we subtract this by total combinations, we get the combinations in which those man and women are both at the same time not in committee. 120-30=90
