Packages of mixed nuts made by a certain company contain four types of nuts. The percentages of nuts of Types 1, 2, 3, and 4 are supposed to be 40%, 30%, 20%, and 10%, respectively. A random sample of nuts is selected, and each one is categorized by type.

a. If the sample size is 200 and the resulting test statistic value is X2 = 19.0, what conclusion would be appropriate for a significance level of .001?

b. If the random sample had consisted of only 40 nuts, would you use the chi-square test here? Explain your reasoning.
