Transcribed Image Text:In 1998, as an advertising campaign, the Nabisco Company announced a "1000 Chips Challenge," claiming that every 18-ounce bag of their Chips Ahoy! cookies contained at
least 1000 chocolate chips. Dedicated statistics students at the Air Force Academy (no kidding) purchased some randomly selected bags of cookies and counted the chocolate
chips. Some of their data are given below. Complete parts (a) through (c) below.

OA. The sample is less than 10% of the population, so one can assume that the data are independent.
B. The data are from a random sample, so one can assume that they are independent.
OC. The data are from a random sample, so one can assume that they are not independent.
OD. The sample is less than 10% of the population, so one can assume that the data are not independent.
Construct a histogram of the data. Choose the correct graph below.

OA. The histogram is roughly bimodal and asymmetric, so one can assume that the data come from a population that follows a t-Student's model.
B. The histogram is roughly unimodal and symmetric, with no outliers, so one can assume that the data come from a population that follows a Normal model.
C. The histogram is roughly unimodal and asymmetric, so one can assume that the data come from a population that follows a t-Student's model.
OD. The histogram is roughly bimodal and symmetric, with no outliers, so one can assume that the data come from a population that follows a Normal model.
b) Create a 95% confidence interval for the average number of chips in bags of Chips Ahoy! cookies.
