(a) Draw 20 SRSs of size 5, using a different part of Table A each time. Record the number of females in each of your samples. Make a histogram like that in Figure 3.1 to display your results. What is the average number of females in your 20 samples?

(b) Do you think the club members should suspect discrimination if none of the 5 tickets go to women?
