Question #1
If a dataset has values ranging from 10 to 95 and you decide to use a class width of 10, how many classes would be needed for an exclusive frequency distribution?
A. 11
B. 8
C. 9
D. 10

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Range = 95 - 10 = 85. Number of classes = Range / Class width = 85 / 10 = 8.5, rounded up to 9 classes to cover the entire data range without gaps.

Question #3
In probability, the addition theorem for mutually exclusive events simplifies to P(A ∪ B) = P(A) + P(B) because:
A. P(A ∩ B) = 1
B. P(A) = P(B)
C. P(A ∩ B) = 0
D. Events are independent

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Mutually exclusive events cannot occur together, so their intersection probability is zero, removing the subtraction term in the general addition theorem.
