7 A candy maker is interested in using containers in the shape shown below to

package his candies. The container is made up of an open cylinder of height h
cm and radius r cm, with a hollow hemispherical lid of radius r cm.
In order to minimise production cost in this difficult time, the candy maker
wants to use containers with the least surface area while maintaining the
volume of each container at 500 cm3. If the material used to construct the
container cost $0.015 per cm2, find, using differentiation, how much a container
with minimum surface area costs to the candy maker. Leave your answer to 2
decimal places.

6 In July 2009, Company J introduced the new jPhone 3GS, the fastest, most powerful
jPhone, packed with improved performance up to twice as fast as the previous model
with longer battery life. The battery life in a randomly chosen jPhone 3GS has a normal
distribution and the battery life of the phone is supposed to be 120 hours.
A random sample of 90 jPhones 3GS is taken, and the battery life of each phone, x
hours, is recorded. The data are summarised by
( x 120) 29 ,
( x 120)
419 .
Test, at the 5% significance level, whether the mean battery life of a jPhone 3GS is less
than 120 hours.

Explain, in the context of the question, the meaning of at the 5% significance level.

Events A and B are such that P( A)
(b) A game is played using a fair die as follows:

If a six is thrown, the game ends and the score is 6.
If a three is thrown, the player throws the die one more time and the score is the
total of the two numbers thrown.
If any other number is thrown, the player throws the die two more times unless
his second throw is 6, in which case the game ends. The score is the total of the
numbers thrown. For example, if the first throw is 4 and the second throw is 6, the
game ends and the score is 10. If the first throw is 5, second throw is 2 and third
throw is 1, the score is 8.
(i) Find the probability that the score is 5.
(ii) Given that the score is at most 5, find the probability that the score is 4.

(a) A committee of 4 is to be formed from the 10 people.
(i) How many different committees can be formed?
(ii) How many different committees can be formed if the committee can consist
of at most 1 married couple?
(b) The group sits at a round table with 10 seats each of a different colour.
(i) If each man sits next to his wife, how many ways can they be seated?
(ii) If one man is absent and the rest are allowed to sit without any restrictions,
how many ways can they be seated?

would favour greater consumer protection.

consumer protection.
[2]
(ii) Find the least number of respondents surveyed such that the probability that at
least 40 of them would favour greater consumer protection exceeds 0.980.

most 58 of them would favour greater consumer protection.

chocolate is more than twice the weight of a randomly chosen bar of Brand B
chocolate.
(b) A sample of 60 bars of Brand A chocolate is sent for inspection.
(i) Find the probability that the sample mean exceeds 179g.
