Question 8 (Mandatory) (4 points) Imagine that two friends (Heather and Suzanne) are playing a video game where the player goes on quests to earn coins. The average number of coins earned on a quest is 2000. Heather plays quite a bit, and goes on an average of 20 quests a day. Suzanne doesn't play quite as much, and only goes on 5 quests a day. On a particular day, which person is less likely to record an average earning below 1500 coins? a) Heather (with 20 quests a day), because the mean will typically be closer to 1500 coins with more quests. (b) Suzanne (with 5 quests a day), because with fewer quests there will be less variability in mean earnings. Heather and Suzanne are equally likely to record such an event, because the number of coins earned on any given quest does not depend on the number of quests undertaken that day.
