There are two bags, each containing 50 marbles. In one of the bags, 80% of the marbles are red and
20% are black. In the other bag, 40% of the marbles are red and 60% are black, Students took random
samples of 10 marbles from each bag (replacing the marbles after every sample) and made the dot plots shown
next.

For each of the following questions, answer the question (to the extent possible) and determine the graph-
reading level of the question. Explain your reasoning.
a. How many random samples were taken from Bag 1? How many random samples were taken from Bag
2?
b. From which bag were more random samples that contained exactly 5 red marbles taken?
c. Did any of the random samples have exactly 8 black marbles?
d. How many random samples from Bag 1 had exactly 8 red marbles? How many random samples from
Bag 2 had exactly 8 red marbles?
