In a college there are 100 students taking A level French, German or
Spanish. Of these students, 64 are female and the rest are male.
There are 50 French students of whom 40 are female and 30 German
students of whom 10 are female.
Find the probability that a randomly chosen student
a)
Is taking Spanish
b) Is male, given that the student is taking Spanish
College records indicate that 70% of the French students, 80% of the
German students and 60% of the Spanish students have applied for
university.

A researcher thinks there is a link between a person's height and level of
confidence. She measured the height h, to the nearest cm, of a random
sample of 9 people. She also devised a test to measure the level of
confidence c of each person. The data are shown in the table below

During the same month, the least number of caravans on Northcliffe caravan site
was 31. The maximum number of caravans on this site on any night that month
was 72. The three quartiles for this site were 38, 45 and 52 respectively.
(b) On graph paper and using the same scale, draw box plots to represent the
data for both caravan sites. You may assume that there are no outliers.
