The Mars company says that before the introduction of purple M&Ms, 20% of the candies were yellow, 20% were red, 10% were orange, 10% were blue, 10% were green, and the rest were brown. You buy a bag of M&Ms and count 29 yellow, 23 red, 12 orange, 14 blue, 8 green, and 20 brown. Use a significance level of a = 0.1. a) If the M&Ms are packaged in the stated distribution, how many of each color should you expect to get? Remember, do not round expected values to a whole number. b) Notice that this situation involves only one categorical variable in which we have one list of observed values and one list of expected values. To test if your bag was unusual, which test should you run? c) State the hypotheses in words. ( d) Use your calculator to perform the appropriate hypothesis test and report the test statistic, p- value. and degrees of freedom. Be sure to write out what you entered in your calculator. e) Write a full conclusion for this test in the context of the problem.

Professors collected data consisting of eye color and gender of statistics students. Among 912 male students, 276 had blue eyes. Among 1102 female students, 372 had blue eyes. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the proportions of blue eyes are the same for males and females. Complete parts (a) through (c) below. Consider the first sample to be the sample of males and the second sample to be the sample of females. O D. Ho: P₁ = P₂ H₁: P₁ P₂ Identify the test statistic.

There are two main fishing spots in a certain video game, a river and a lake. In the river, out of the 57 fish that were caught, 31 of them were trout. In the lake, out of the 64 fish that were caught, 24 of them were trout. Use a significance level of a = 0.02 to test the claim that the proportion of trout in the river is greater than the proportion of trout in the lake. Let the river represent population 1, and the lake represent population 2. a.) State the null and alternative hypothesis using correct symbolic form. Ho: P1 P2 H1: P1 + P2 b.) What is the critical value? (round to two decimal places)

10. The most common species of sweat bees are green, red, and yellow. For each color, we select a sample of 100 of bees of this color and record their length (in inches). We then create 3 data sets of 100 observations each, called "green", "red" and "yellow". Below are the boxplots and histograms for these data sets. The labels of the variables are missing from the histograms, but are included in the boxplots. Our task is to identify the missing labels. Which one of the following statements is correct?

A statistics teacher asked two different students, Lexie and Jennifer, to go to Wegmans and sample 30 shoppers each. The population of interest for both people can be defined as, “People who shop at the Johnson City, NY Wegmans store”. Here is what each person did to collect their sample: Lexie: She stood outside at the entrance to the store on 3 different days and times and surveyed every 15th person to walk by her. She surveyed 10 people each time to get her 30. Jennifer: She went to Wegmans after her nursing shift first thing Wednesday morning to buy deodorant since she ran out. When she was in the pharmacy area she surveyed all the people around her and then, to get up to 30 surveys, she went to the health food section and surveyed everyone she was there. Identify at least 2 specific reasons why Lexie’s approach is more likely to give a representative sample. Consider sources of bias, or types of shoppers who might be excluded by Jennifer’s approach.…
Psychologists have been investigating the differences between people with at least one brother or sister and those with none. In a letter to the New England Jounal of Medicine, researchers announced the results of a survey of 472 adults in Buffalo, New York. The experiment recorded whether the respondent suffered from hypertension and whether she or he had siblings. The data were summarized as shown bellow; SIBLING NO SIBLING TOTAL Suffer from hypertention 79 39 118 Do not suffer from hypertension 262 92 354 TOTAL 341 131 472 REQUIRED Do these data allow us to conclude at the 5% significance level that adults with no siblings suffer different rates of hypertension than those with siblings?
