For the following event, state whether you think the difference between what occurred and what you would expect by chance is statistically significant. Explain. Tenwinners of the Power Ball lottery in a row bought their tickets at the same 7-Eleven store. Choose the correct answer below. A. It is significant because, one winner is unlikely, two winners is very unlikely, and 10 winners is certainly below a 0.01 probability level. B. It is significant because, one winner is unlikely, two winners is very unlikely, and 10 winners is certainly above a 0.05 probability level. C. It is not significant because, in 10 lotteries there are 10 winners. D. It is not significant because, the difference between the expected number winners, 10, and the actual number of winners, 10, is zero.
