Favorite Skittles Flavor? A poll sampled 93 people, asking them their favorite skittle flavor by color (green, orange, purple, red, or yellow).

Are candy color pieces uniformly distributed? In a 2 ounce bag of Skittles, there are green, red, yellow, orange and purple pieces. Ideally, each bag should have the same amount of pieces for each color (so colors/categories are equally likely.) PROJECT: Pick (or Google a picture of) a bag of candy (Skittles, M&Ms or Mike & Ikes, etc) that fulfills the requirements listed below and perform a goodness of fit test for uniform distribution (use a 0.05 significance level.) Requirements...

Recall the pre-lab candy situation consider: two unopened bags of candy (one Skittles the other M&M's). The manufacturers state the distribution of coloured candies is: M&M'S MILK CHOCOLATE: 24% blue, 19% orange, 16% green, 13% yellow, 13% red, 15% brown. SKITTLES: colours are reportedly distributed evenly, meaning each colour (red, orange, green, blue, yellow, and purple) has a probability of 1616. Assume that both of these unopened bags have the same number of candies. If they are opened and mixed,...
