Why Do People Choose The Different Marshmallows?
In my project I made three different marshmallows. My hypothesis was correct. I had 7 people out of 14 people choose marshmallow three. I believe they chose marshmallow three because it had the most sugar. The first marshmallow came next in the highest votes. The first marshmallow didn’t have a lot of sugar, it only had ½ cup of sugar and 1/3 cup of corn syrup which balanced out and made the marshmallow taste better than the second marshmallow.
I was confused when only two people chose the second marshmallow. I got responses that the second marshmallow had a weird texture, it was too mushy, it didn’t taste set, and it tasted more like a liquid than a solid. When I mixed the syrup and the gelatin it became sticky very fast and stuck to the bowl

    In the first part of the M&M report, we had a very simple task. The task was to go out to a convenience store and buy three bags of M&Ms, and count how many different pieces of candy were in each of the three bags. Out of the entire student’s in the class I would say every single student’s count of each individual color was different. But for the classes sake all of the colors were added up, as was the grand total of all the candies combined in the three bags. The grand total was: Blue 934, Orange 1025, Green 928, Yellow 639, Red 556, Brown 616 and the total being 3684. It is interesting because watching the video they said that certain colored candies have a higher percentage than others. One of those colors’s being Red, and Red is the lowest.…

    The purpose of the design is to test and compare three brands of gummy bears. The three bands we will be testing are Trolli, Sweet Smiles, and Haribo. The purpose of the experiment was to test and compare the three brands to determine which has the best chewiness and which has the best flavor. The third criteria tested was the elasticity between the three brands, meaning which brand can resume normal shape after being stretched. Our prediction for the study was that Trolli will be ranked highest in both flavor and chewiness. We also predicted that the subjects responses will prove that…

    In this area we combined all collected data, and placed into an excel worksheet. During this process we were able to collect all necessary information to distinguish the sample mean and sample proportion for each colored candy as well as for the total number of candies collected. After all of the information was collected and computed, a frequency histogram was then created (see below) which allowed one to identify any patterns within the data set. A frequency histogram is a bar graph that represents…

    I used two studies to review this experiment. The first test was done by Sean Boyd who tested three bags of five different brands. Mr Boyd however only factored the un-popped kernels into his results. He averaged the amount un-popped kernels to find that ACT II produced the least amount of un-popped kernels. ( Boyd, 2006 ) The second was done by Tammie Mason. She tested four different brands. She popped three bags for each brand and then found the average number of popped kernels per brand. She concluded that more expensive brand, Orville Redenbacker, produced the most popped kernels per bag. A mid-priced brand, Act II, popped the least. (Mason, 2011) Mr. Boyds test did not have enough data for me so I decided to base my test on Ms. Mason’s process with small modifications.…

    In this project I will be testing whether or not popcorn yields a higher percentage of popped kernels when frozen. This is relevant because most people would like to get the best value out of items they purchased and this may demonstrate one way to do that. I will be freezing multiple bags of popcorn and then popping both frozen and unfrozen bags in the microwave. Finally I will count the popped and unpopped kernels to determine the percentages for both variables and if there is a difference.…

    The children in the unreliable environment waited for 3 minutes while the children were able to wait for 12 minutes. Most of the children said they would wait, when the researchers asked them if they will wait or not. Some of them failed in doing so, because they could not resist the pull of temptation for even a minute. So as soon as the researcher left the room to get the other treat, they immediately consumed the marshmallow.…

    If the number of skittles in each bag is off by a few, my first hypothesis will be true. However, if there are many abnormally shaped skittles in each bag, my second hypothesis will be incorrect. Next, if all the bags of skittles have different percentages of skittles, my third hypothesis will be right. If the highest average percentage is yellow, then my fourth hypothesis will be accurate. Lastly, if the most amount of people vote for green apple then my last hypothesis will be…

    The calculations show that we are 99% confident that the true proportion of yellow candies falls between 0.20125 and 0.21275. This is about one-fifth of the candies which does seem quite reasonable since there are five different colors in the bag of skittles. We are 95% confident that the true mean of candies per bag falls between 58.9481 and 61.0119. Using this information, we…

    The children could eat the marshmallow, the researchers said, but if they waited for fifteen minutes without giving in to the temptation, they would be rewarded with a second marshmallow. The researches says that some children cover their eyes with their hands or turn around so that they can't see the tray, others start kicking the desk, or tug on their pigtails, or danced in their seats, sang, and took pretend naps. Several took a bite from the bottom of the marshmallow then placed it back in the desert cup so it looked untouched. A few then nibbled off the top, forgetting they could then longer hide the evidence since both ends were eaten while others would simply eat the marshmallow as soon as the researchers left.…
