1. Which of the following statements is/are incorrect? Options: (a) To represent the share of a particular category, bar chart is the most appropriate graphical representation. (b) The multiplication of the total number of observations and relative frequency of a particular observation should be equal to the frequency of that observation. (c) Mean can be defined for a categorical variable. (d) Mode of a categorical variable is the widest slice in a pie chart.

1. The numbers a, b, c, d have frequencies (x + 6), (x + 2), (x − 3) and x respectively. If their mean is m, find the value of x. (Enter the value as next highest integer) Solution: $$ \frac{a(x + 6) + b(x + 2) + c(x − 3) + dx}{(x + 6) + (x + 2) + (x − 3) + x} = m $$$$ \frac{ax + 6a + bx + 2b + cx − 3c + dx}{4x + 5} = m $$$$ ax + bx + cx + dx + 6a + 2b − 3c = m(4x + 5) = (4m)x + 5m $$$$ (a + b + c + d − 4m)x = 5m − 6a − 2b + 3c $$$$ x = \frac{5m − 6a − 2b + 3c}{a + b + c + d − 4m} $$Suppose, we substitute values of a, b, c, d and m as 2, 7, 9, 17 and 6.88 respectively,

1. Covering Registers with Coloured Papers Question: Vinod has $ n $ registers and $ m $ cover papers of different colours. In how many ways can he cover all the registers with cover papers? Answer: $ m \times (m - 1) \times (m - 2) \times \dots \times (m - n + 1) $ Solution: For the 1st register: $ m $ ways. For the 2nd register: $ m-1 $ ways. … For the $ n $th register: $ m-n+1 $ ways. Total: $ m \times (m - 1) \times \dots \times (m - n + 1) $.

Options: a. $\frac{2 m-5}{m+2 P_{2}}$ b. $\frac{2 m-6}{m+2 P_{2}}$ c. $\frac{2 m-6}{m+3 P_{2}}$ d. $\frac{2 m-4}{m+2 P_{2}}$

1. Probability of the k-th Record Being the Last Five-Wicket Haul Question: Zaheer Khan has taken $ m $ five-wicket hauls in his last $ n $ matches. His match records are selected at random, one by one, and analyzed. If none of the match records is analyzed more than once, then what is the probability that the $ k^{th} $ one analyzed is his last five-wicket haul match?

A discrete random variable $ X $ can take the values $ 1,2,3,···,n $. For these values the cumulative distribution function is defined by - $$ F(x) = P(X < x) = \frac{x^2 + k}{m}; \quad x = 1, 2, 3, \ldots, n $$ Find the value of $ k $.

There are $2^n$ numbered cards in a deck, among which ${}^n C_i$ cards bear the number $i$ ($i = 0,1,2,\ldots,n$). From the deck, $m$ cards are drawn with replacement. What is the expectation of the sum of their numbers? (Enter the answer correct to one decimal accuracy.)

A match predictor claims that he can predict the result of a match correctly $x\%$ of the time. It is agreed that his claim will be accepted if he correctly predicts the results of at least $m$ of $n$ matches. What is the probability that his claim gets rejected?

Let a random variable be uniformly distributed over $[a, b]$ with expectation $e$ and variance $v$ respectively. Find the value of $ab$.
