hey ur givin stats 2moro rite? me too!
ok.....if 2 people live in the same house with no other people then that house must have 2 people in it. from the table the numbert of people living in a house with 2 people is 2*8=16. the total number of people is 110. the first person selected can be any one of the 16 people. but the second person selected can only be ONE- the person who lives with him. so p(same house with no others)=(16/110)*(1/109)=0.00133
anyways good luck for 2moro! ;)
i hate A level...........

Section A was weird but i think i got it all right except the Q about the postal questionnaires lol..... the q was what is it's advantage over interviewing personally right or just general?
I wrote it requires less resources( as you don't need interviewers )
and disadv that a reply from the persons is not necessary.....
Section B mai only the last Q was easy the rest were harder than usual.. examiner must hve been angry that day!!!!!:P
Ogive wale q mai... after getting value 66.. the median was the 44'th value off the graph right not the 33rd cause you had to eliminate the first 11 values??
Those 4 marks worth of comment questions were weird :/ .. why does the mean increase and precision one.. wht were the answers if anyone knows?
I'm just sad I messed up the part b of the probability q yar in sec B ... dno what happened
