Question: For each scenario, (a) state the research question, and (b) select the appropriate statistical test.

A home economist decides to find out if it is true that one bad apple spoils the bunch. He gets 50 bushels of apples, each with 100 unspoiled apples in it and randomly divides them into two groups. In each bushel in one of the groups, he inserts a '`bad" apple and in each bushel in the other group he inserts a "good" apple. He then stores the bushels in a climate-controlled chamber for a month, after which he counts the number of spoiled apples per bushel.
