asnwer the following questions
Assume you get the following M&M’s in your bag:
Blue | Orange | Green | Yellow | Red | Brown | Total |
10 | 14 | 15 | 9 | 2 | 6 | 56 |
Now assume that your group of 4 students had the following numberscombined:
Blue | Orange | Green | Yellow | Red | Brown | Total |
40 | 47 | 24 | 24 | 24 | 15 | 174 |
1- Pick one of the colors. For this color, you need to calculate 2confidence intervals.
a.Calculate a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of thecolor you were assigned of M&M’s based on the count in justyour bag.
b.Now with your group calculate a 95% confidence interval for theproportion of the color you were assigned of M&M’s based on thecount from the class
2-Compare these two confidence intervals. What do you notice aboutthe p-hat for each and the margin of error for each? Why do youthink this is true?
Now assume the classes’ distribution is as follows:
Blue | Orange | Green | Yellow | Red | Brown | Total |
297 | 298 | 159 | 175 | 163 | 120 | 1212 |
3-Now calculate a 95% confidence interval for your color based onthese numbers.
4-How does this interval compare with your otherintervals?
The following is the distribution of colors for milk chocolatem&m’s from the company:
24% blue, 20% orange, 16% green, 14% yellow, 13% red, 13%brown.
5-Do your intervals capture the true percentage based on the aboveinformation from M&M Mars? Do all of them, or just some ofthem?
6-If they don’t capture the true proportion, why do you think thatis?
