A weighted coin with given $P(H),\;P(T)$ is tossed 3 times. Let $X$ be the random variable which denotes the longest string of consecutive heads that occur during these tosses. Find the Probability Mass Function (PMF), expectation and variance of $X$.

Just showing how to use the stdev function from the stats extension to calculate the standard deviation of a list of numbers.

This question demonstrates defining an 'unknown' function $F(x)$ as a custom function so that it can be used in marking.

The definition of $F$ is arbitrary, so care must be taken to ensure it doesn't have more properties, such as evenness, than necessary.

This shows how to use captured groups in a mathematical expression part's pattern restriction to mark an answer involving multiple occurrences of an undefined function.

Given a probability mass function $P(X=i)$ with outcomes $i \in \{0,1,2,\ldots 8\}$, find the expectation $E$ and $P(X \gt E)$.

Use two points on a line graph to calculate the gradient and $y$-intercept and hence the equation of the straight line running through both points.

The answer box for the third part plots the function which allows the student to check their answer against the graph before submitting.

This particular example has a negative gradient.

An applied example of the use of two points on a graph to develop a straight line function, then use the t estimate and predict. MCQ's are also used to develop student understanding of the uses of gradient and intercepts as well as the limitations of prediction.
