A red piece of plastic was found in one Snickers bar by a customer in Germany; that piece of plastic was traced back...

How many ways are there to distribute the candy if -each piece of candy is different? -each piece of candy is identical? -each piece of candy is identical and four people get at least one piece of candy each, while the three remaining people get none 5.

1.Suppose we have two bowls full of candies. Each bowl contains four different flavours of candy – grape (which are purple), lemon (which are yellow), cherry (which are red) and raspberry (which are also red). (a) [1 Mark] We will randomly select one candy from each bowl. The outcome of interest is the flavour of each of the two candies. Write out the complete sample space of outcomes. (b) [1 Mark] Suppose instead that we randomly select one candy from...
PART 2: Which test-statistic, z, t, or neither? A candy factory that produces chocolate bars claims each bar weighs 50 grams, at least that is what is printed on the label. Of course, there is bound to be a little variation. An inspector randomly chooses 9 bars from one day's output of 4000 bars. The average weight of the 9 bars is only 47 grams with an SD of 3 grams. The inspector wishes to test the null hypothesis that...
Set 5 a. A staircase has 10 steps. You walk up taking one or two at a time. How many ways can you go up? We have n dollars to spend. Every day we either buy a candy for 1 dollar, or an ice cream for 2 dollars. In how many ways can we spend the money? Explain for n-5, and then conjecture for n dollars. Prove your conjecture. Define Fibonacci numbers completely. Why do you need two initial values?...
Suppose you have decided to start a small business selling snacks from vending machines. You have secured a location for one candy vending machine in a local bookstore. Rental for the space will cost $200 per month. Vending machines can be purchased at wholesale clubs such as Sam’s Club and Costco. You can also purchase the snacks to stock the machines in bulk there. 1. Either visit a local warehouse club or review its website to determine the initial cost...

Some kinds of candy (such as Sweet Tarts and Life Savers) come in rolls. You can eat the candy from either end of the roll, but you can't access a candy in the middle without going through one of the end pieces first. These kinds of candy often have different flavors in the roll as well, which I've given a "flavor value" from 1-C (where "C" is the number of different flavors). Higher numbers are better. Being a fan of...
5. One bag contains twenty candies with the following amounts of each color: 5-red, 6-blue, 3-green, 2-yellow, and 4-orange. One candy is drawn at random. a. What is the probability of drawing a blue candy? b. What is the probability of drawing a red candy or a green candy? c. You draw one candy and then a second candy without putting back the first. What is the probability of drawing a green candy on the second draw given that you...
