Question

An urn contains 64 balls, of which N1 are orange and N2 are blue. A random sample of n = 8 balls is selected from the urn without replacement, and X is equal to the number of orange balls in the sample. This experiment was repeated 30 times (the 8 balls being returned to the urn before each repetition), yielding the following data: Table 1: Data for Q2 3 0 0 1 1 1 1 3 1 1 2 0 1 3 1 0 1 0 2 1 1 2 3 2 2 4 3 1 1 2 Using these data, guess the value of N1 and give a reason for your guess.
