Question
According to the manufacturer of M&Ms, 13% of the plain M&Ms in a bag should be brown, 14% yellow, 13% red, 24% blue, 20% orange, and 16% green. A student randomly selected a bag of plain M&Ms. He
counted the number of M&Ms of each color and obtained the results shown in the table. Test whether plain M&Ms follow the distribution stated by the manufacturer at the x = 0.05 level of significance.
Determine the null and alternative hypotheses. Choose the correct answer below.
O A. Ho The distribution of colors is not the same as stated by the manufacturer.
H₁ The distribution of colors is the same as stated by the manufacturer.
B. Ho The distribution of colors is the same as stated by the manufacturer.
H₁: The distribution of colors is not the same as stated by the manufacturer.
O C. Ho The distribution of colors is at least as uniform as stated by the manufacturer.
H₁: The distribution of colors is less uniform than stated by the manufacturer.
O D. Ho The distribution of colors is at most as uniform as stated by the manufacturer.
H₁: The distribution of colors is more uniform than stated by the manufacturer.
Compute the expected counts for each color.
