General Instructions for Marking
B1 cao 1.1b
Question Scheme Marks AOs 2(a)(i) Extrapolation is making predictions outside the original data range.
(a)(ii) This is unreliable as the trend may not continue. B1 2. (2) (b) The product moment correlation coefficient cannot be greater than 1
Critical value 0.7155 M1 1.1a
There is evidence that the product moment correlation coefficient is greater than 0 A1f 2.2b (3) (e) This suggests that on average (female hook-billed) kites with longer tails have longer wings. B1 3.2a (1) (8 marks) Notes: (a) B1: for a correct definition of extrapolation B1: for a correct statement of the dangers of extrapolation (b) B1: for a correct statement (c) B1: for awrt 0. (d)

S =number of stores with at least 12 winning cards
M1 3.1b
(b) Number of trials is large and probability of success is close to
b
(d) The probability is greater than 0.025 therefore there is insufficient evidence at the 5% significance level to suggest that the proportion is different from 45% B1 2.2b (1) (11 marks) Notes: (a) B1 may be implied by subsequent working 1 st^ M1: for selection of appropriate model for S 1 st^ A1: for a correct values of the parameter p 2 nd^ A1: for awrt 0.
