Question 132428: Please help. Biting an unpopped kernel of popcorn hurts! As an experiment, a self-confessed connoisseur of
cheap popcorn carefully counted 773 kernels and put them in a popper. After popping, the unpopped
kernels were counted. There were 86. (a) Construct a 90 percent confidence interval for the proportion
of all kernels that would not pop. (b) Check the normality assumption. (c) Try the Very Quick
Rule. Does it work well here? Why, or why not? (d) Why might this sample not be typical?
