You performed a simulation to examine mutation proportions.

You performed a simulation to examine mutation proportions. You put fifty candies in each of two bags. You hit both bags with a book to simulate a genetic mutation occurring. The first bag had five broken candles and the second bag had ten broken candies. Which statement is correct? Your sample size was too small to use the z-test to compare proportions. The proportions of candies in the bags were not statistically significantly different at the 90% confidence level. The proportions of candies in the bags were statistically significantly different at the 90% confidence level. The proportions of candies in the bag could not be determined.
