A large candy company has a product that comes in several different colors. The company claims that 31.3% of these candies are colored red. Note: It is assumed that you use the normal distribution as a model to answer (b) and (c). a) For samples of size 450, what is the standard deviation for the sampling distribution of the sample proportion of red candies? b) In a random sample of 450 candies, what is the probability that less than 29.1% are red? c) What is the probability that a random sample of 450 candies results in higher than 33.9% red? d) What is the probability that a random sample of 12 candies results in 4 candies or fewer that are red?
