The wind speed at a weather monitoring station varies according to the function

`v(t) = 20 + 16sin ((pi t)/(14))`

where `v` is the speed of the wind, in kilometres per hour (km/h), and `t` is the time, in minutes, after 9 am.

What is the amplitude and the period of `v(t)`? (2 marks)
What are the maximum and minimum wind speeds at the weather monitoring station? (1 mark)

Find the average value of `v(t)` for the first 60 minutes, correct to two decimal places. (2 marks)

A sudden wind change occurs at 10 am. From that point in time, the wind speed varies according to the new function

`v_1(t) = 28 + 18 sin((pi(t - k))/(7))`

where `v_1` is the speed of the wind, in kilometres per hour, `t` is the time, in minutes, after 9 am and `k ∈ R^+`. The wind speed after 9 am is shown in the diagram below.

A light manufacturer knows that 6% of the light bulbs it produces are defective.

Light bulbs are supplied in boxes of 20 bulbs. Boxes are supplied in pallets of 120 boxes.

Calculate the probability that

A box of light bulbs contains exactly 3 defective bulbs. (1 mark)

--- 2 WORK AREA LINES (style=lined) ---
A box of light bulbs contains at least 1 defective bulb. (1 mark)

i. `P(D) = 0.06, \ P(barD) = 0.94`

`P(D = 3)`	`= \ ^20C_3(0.06)^3(0.94)^17`
	`= 0.086\ \ (text(to 3 d.p.))`

ii.	`P(D >= 1)`	`= 1 – P(D = 0)`
		`= 1 – \ ^20C_0(0.06)^0(0.94)^20`
		`= 0.710\ \ (text(to 3 d.p.))`

iii. `text(Let)\ \ X = text(number of boxes where)\ \ D >= 1`

`text(Let)\ \ overset^p = text(proportion of boxes where)\ \ D >= 1`

`E(overset^p) = p = 0.710`

`text(Var)(overset^p) = (0.710(1 – 0.710))/120 = 0.0017158`

`sigma(overset^p) = 0.04142`

`overset^p\ ~\ N(0.710, 0.04142)`

`text(If)\ \ X = 90 \ => \ overset^p = 90/120 = 0.75`

`text(If)\ \ X = 95 \ => \ overset^p = 95/120 = 0.79167`

`ztext(-score)\ (X = 90) = (0.75 – 0.710)/(0.04142) = 0.9657`

`ztext(-score)\ (X = 95) = (0.79167 – 0.710)/(0.04142) = 1.972`

`P(90 <= X <= 95)`	`= P(0.97 <= z <= 1.97)`
	`= 0.9756 – 0.8340`
	`= 0.1416`

It is known that 43% of voters in a city voted for Labor in the election.

If 250 voters from the city are selected at random, use a suitable approximation and the attached probability table to find the probability that at least 120 of those chosen voted for Labor. (3 marks)

`E(overset^p) = p = 0.43`

`text(Var)(overset^p) = (0.43(1 – 0.43))/250 = 0.0009804`

`sigma(overset^p) = 0.0313`

`text(Let)\ \ X = text(number who voted Labor)`

`text(If)\ \ X = 120 \ => \ overset^p = 120/250 = 0.48`

`P(X >= 120)`	`= P(z >= (0.48 – 0.43)/0.0313)`

Netball Australia records show that 10% of all registered players are over the age of 25.

A random survey of 100 netball players was carried out to find out how many were over 25 years of age.

Assuming the sample proportion is normally distributed, calculate the expected mean and standard deviation of this group. (2 marks)
