Mars Inc. claims that they produce M&Ms with the following distributions:
Brown | 30% | Red | 20% | Yellow | 20% |
Orange | 10% | Green | 10% | Blue | 10% |
A bag of M&Ms was randomly selected from the grocery store
shelf, and the color counts were:
Brown | 22 | Red | 24 | Yellow | 19 |
Orange | 14 | Green | 15 | Blue | 15 |
Using the χ2 goodness of fit test to determine if the
proportion of M&Ms is what is claimed, what is the test
statistic?
a) χ2 = 8.049
b) χ2 = 16.098
c) χ2 = 1.960
d) χ2 = 7.249
e) χ2 = 11.749
f) None of the above
a) χ2 = 8.049
Chi square formula
Expected frequencies = (Row total* Column Total) /Grand Total.

A bag of M&MS was randomly selected from the grocery store shelf, and the color counts were: Brown 20, Red 5, Yellow 10, Orange 4, Green 5, Blue 6. Mars Inc. claims that they produce M&Ms with the following distributions Brown 30% Red 20% Yellow 20% Orange 10% Green 10% Blue 10%. 1. n = 50, is there evidence of difference between the random bag that was picked and Mars Inc.'s claims? 2. Graph the results.
Until very recently, company policy dictated that M&M bags include 30% brown, 20% yellow, 20% red, and 10% orange, blue, and green, respectively. After buying a bag of M&Ms, the author counted 29 yellow, 23 red, 12 orange, 14 blue, 8 green, and 18 brown. Is this sample consistent with the company’s stated proportions? Test an appropriate hypothesis and state your conclusion. If the M&Ms are packaged in the stated proportions, how many of each color should the author have...
Plain M&M's come in 6 different colors (Blue, Orange, Green, Yellow, Red, Brown) and are produced at two different plants. M&M's that come from a plant in Tennessee are supposed to have the following distribution of colors: 20.7% Blue; 20.5% Orange; 19.8% Green; 13.5% Yellow; 13.1% Red and 12.4% Brown. Quality control at the plant is concerned the machine is not working correctly and that it is producing a different distribution of colors. They take a random sample of 940...
A manufacturer of colored candies states that 13% of the candies in a bag should be brown, 14% yellow, 13% red, 24% blue, 20% orange, and 16% green. A student randomly selected a bag of colored candies. He counted the number of candies of each color and obtained the results shown in the table. Test whether the bag of colored candies follows the distribution stated above at the α=0.05 level of significance. Color Brown Yellow Red Blue Orange Green Frequency...
State the null and alternative hypotheses. It has been rumored that the color distribution of M&M’s is 30% brown, 20% yellow, 20% red, 10% orange, 10% blue, and 10% green. You suspect this rumor is incorrect and decide to count how many of each color are contained in a randomly chosen bag in order to perform a Chi-Square goodness-of-fit test at a 5% significance level. Color Brown Yellow Red Orange Blue Green Total Observed 27 16 21 12 9 15...
The Skittles company claims that the 5 colors are evenly distributed in each bag. The M&Ms company has removed their color distribution from their website. (The pdf document Percentages of M&Ms Colors is posted in Moodle.) You may use the Goodness of Fit example that is posted in Moodle as a guide. How- yer, your numbers MUST be different. Conduct a goodness of fit hypothesis test to determine whether the distribution of colors in your bag of candy is the...
Suppose you open a bag of M&Ms and count the number of M&Ms you have of each color. Suppose there were the following: Qty 4 blue Qty 4 orange Qty 1 yellow Qty 1 green Qty 3 brown Qty 2 red Calculate the proportion of each color (round to 3 decimals) Color Proportion Blue Orange Yellow Green Brown Red
