The proportion of brown M&M's in a milk chocolate packet is approximately 14%. Suppose a package of
M&M's typically contains 66 M&M's.
a) State the random variable.
rv X= all M&Ms that are brown
b) List the given numbers with correct symbols.
nV
66
pv
= 0.14
c) Explain why this is a binomial experiment. Check all that apply.
There are only two outcomes for each M&M
Whether or not one randomly selected M&M is brown will not affect whether or not another
randomly selected M&M is brown
There is not a fixed number of M&Ms
O There are more than two outcomes for each M&M
Op = 14% remains constant from one randomly selected M&M to another
There are a fixed number of M&Ms, 66
Whether or not one randomly selected M&M is brown will affect whether or not ar ther randomly
selected M&M is brown
