75    70    80    40    10    55    30    80    80    72
27    95    20    30    85    10    40    23    75    60
50    30    10    10    90    15    20    40    70    65
45    50    40    10    90    20    25    42    70    70

(i) prepare the formula for finding minimum and maximum scores.

(ii) Draw the frequency distribution using descriptive statistics.

(iii) Compute the percentage of students, who scored above the pass marks of 50.

(iv) Compute the number of students, who scored between 50 and 80?

problem 2) Canned juice company needs to find out mean weight of the can of canned juice. It takes a random sample of 80 such cans (from some thousand cans in its warehouse) and finds that mean weight is 201.15 grams and the standard deviation is 0.56 grams. Detemine a 95% confidence interval for the mean weight of the cans in the firm warehouse.

problem 3) A chemical firm wishes to find out how four catalysts differ in yield. Firm runs the experiment in eight of its plants type. In each plant, yield is measured with each catalyst. yield (in Quintals) is as follows:

Plant          Catalyst
             1    2    3    4
A           2    1    2    4
B           3    2    1    3
C           1    3    3    1
D           5    4    3    2
E           1    2    4    3
F           2    1    1    2
G          4    3    4    2
H          3    1    4    3

Carry out an ANOVA using any software and comment whether yield due to the particular catalyst is significant or not at 5% level of significance. Make appropriate assumptions, if any.
