For Questions use the following narrative
Narrative: Oranges
Suppose a shipment of oranges is advertised to weigh 5 pounds per bag.We know that not every bag can contain exactly 5 pounds of oranges.We decide to take a random sample of 100 bags of oranges and find out what they tell us about the population of all bags in this shipment.We are only interested in whether or not the bags are underweight, so each bag is weighed and counted as underweight if it weighs less than 5 pounds.Five bags in our sample of 100 were found to be underweight.
-{Oranges narrative} Suppose the grocery store who ordered the oranges will reject the shipment if they believe, based on these sample results, that more than 10% of the bags in the entire truckload are underweight.Based on our sample, will they have to return this shipment? Explain your answer.
