The candy machine Suppose a large candy machine has 45%orange candies, Use Figures 7.11and7.12(page 434) to help answer the following questions.

(a) Would you be surprised if a sample of 25candies from the machine contained 8orange candies (that's 32%orange)? How about 5orange candies ( 20%orange)? Explain.

(b) Which is more surprising getting a sample of 25candies in which 32%are orange or getting a sample of 50candies in which 32%are orange? Explain.

Even more tall girls, Refer to Exercises 12and 14. Suppose that the sample mean height of the twenty 16-year-old females is x=65.8inches. Would this sample mean provide convincing evidence that the average height of all 16-year-old females at this school is greater than 64inches? Explain your reasoning.

According to government data, 22% of American children under the age of 6 live in households with incomes less than the official poverty level. A study of learning in early childhood chooses an SRS of 300 children from one state and finds that p鈭�p^=0.29.

a. Find the probability that at least 29% of the sample are from poverty-level households, assuming that 22% of all children under the age of 6 in this state live in poverty-level households.

b. Based on your answer to part (a), is there convincing evidence that the percentage of children under the age of 6 living in households with incomes less than the official poverty level in this state is greater than the national value of 22%? Explain your reasoning.

More sample minimums List all 4possible SRSs of size n=3, calculate the minimum age for each sample, and display the sampling distribution of the sample minimum on a dot plot with the same scale as the dot plot in Exercise 20. How does the variability of this sampling distribution compare with the variability of the sampling distribution from Exercise 20? What does this indicate about increasing the sample size?
