The Hot Tamale caper. “Hot Tamales” are chewy, cinnamon flavored candies. A bulk vending machine is known to dispense, on average, 15 Hot Tamales per bag. Chance (Fall 2000) published an article on a classroom project in which students were required to purchase bags of Hot Tamales from the machine and count the number of candies per bag. One student group claimed it purchased five bags that had the following candy counts: 25, 23, 21, 21, and 20. There was some question as to whether the students had fabricated the data. Use a hypothesis test to gain insight into whether or not the data collected by the students were fabricated. Use a level of significance that gives the benefit of the doubt to the students.
