Problem 105E

Gummi Bears: Red or yellow? Refer to the Chance (Winter 2010) experiment to determine if color of a Gummi Bear is related to its flavor, Exercise 7.72 (p. 392). You tested the null hypothesis of p = .5 against the two-tailed alternative hypothesis of p ≠ .5 using  = .01, where p represents the true proportion of blind folded students who correctly identified the color of the Gummi Bear. Recall that of the 121 students who participated in the study, 97 correctly identified the color. Find the power of the test if the true proportion is p = .65.
