Problem: M&M/Mars, the makers of Skittle candies, states the flavor blend is 20% for each flavor. The table below shows the number of each flavor found in four randomly selected bags of original Skittles.

1. Using the Chi-Square goodness of fit test, state the null and alternative hypotheses.


2. Compute the chi-square test statistic. Find the chi-square critical value and assume α = .05.


3. State your conclusion (reject or do not reject the null) and summarize the results.


4. When the observed and expected values are closer together, explain the effect on the chi-square test statistic.
