Can babies reason probabilistically? A study1 investigates this by showing ten- to twelve-month-old infants two jars of lollipop shaped objects colored pink or black. Each infant first crawled or walked to whichever color they wanted, determining their "preferred" color. They were then given the choice between two jars that had the same number of preferred objects, but that differed in their probability of getting the preferred color; each jar had in the preferred color and either or in the other color. Babies choosing randomly or based on the absolute number of their preferred color would choose equally between the two jars, while babies understanding probability would more often choose the jar with the higher proportion of their preferred color. Of the infants studied, chose the jar with the higher proportion of their preferred color. Are infants more likely to choose the jar with the higher proportion of their preferred color?(a) State the null and alternative hypotheses.(b) Give the notation for the sample statistic.(c) Find the value of the sample statistic.(d) What is the p-value?

Asmall (but heavy) particle placed in a glass of water will follow a zigzag motion because the particle will bounce off of the water molecules it meets. this is called brownian motion. a physicist simulates this on a computer, by varying the distance a particle can travel (called the mean free length), on average, before it collides with a water molecule and assigning the change in motion to be one of 8 directions, each with a similar probability. by running the simulated particle (with the same mean free length) many times she determines that it should take 15 seconds, on average, for the particle to fall to the bottom, with a standard deviation of 1.5 seconds. next she lets a real particle fall through a glass of water and finds that it took 18 seconds. what does she conclude, and why?
