A company that makes hard candy have a standard bag of hard candy with 150 pieces. The hard candy has three distinct colors red,
white and orange and equal proportion of each candy is present in the standard bag. The manager wants to know whether the bags produced last Monday were similar to the standard bag. To test this, they plan to choose a random bag from the batch and compare it with the standard bag. You will have to answer questions below to assist the manager in comparing the two bags. Based on the data provided above how many degrees of freedom will you have while performing the necessary test of comparison
The degrees of freedom, Df = The number of bags produced on Monday - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of degrees of freedom is the limiting number of values that are logically not influenced by other values such that they are capable of having variation
The degrees of freedom = The sample size - 1 = N - 1
Therefore, the degrees of freedom, Df = The number of bags produced on Monday - 1
