4400 Higher November 2004 Paper 4 Q10
10 The table gives information about the speeds, in km/h, of 200 cars passing a speed checkpoint.
| Speed (\(v\) km/h) | Frequency |
|---|---|
| \(30 \lt v \leqslant 40\) | 20 |
| \(40 \lt v \leqslant 50\) | 76 |
| \(50 \lt v \leqslant 60\) | 68 |
| \(60 \lt v \leqslant 70\) | 28 |
| \(70 \lt v \leqslant 80\) | 8 |
(a) Write down the modal class. (1)
(b) Work out an estimate for the probability that the next car passing the speed checkpoint will have a speed of more than 60 km/h. (2)
(c) Complete the cumulative frequency table.
(1)
| Speed (\(v\) km/h) | Cumulative frequency |
|---|---|
| \(30 \lt v \leqslant 40\) | |
| \(30 \lt v \leqslant 50\) | |
| \(30 \lt v \leqslant 60\) | |
| \(30 \lt v \leqslant 70\) | |
| \(30 \lt v \leqslant 80\) |
(d) On the grid, draw a cumulative frequency graph for your table.
(2)

(e) Use your graph to find an estimate for the inter-quartile range of the speeds.
Show your method clearly. (2)
