If we were truly generating random numbers and there's no preference, what
proportion of these numbers would be even?

Two possible reasons for the difference in sample means:

the difference really is due to the effect of light at night
the difference is just due to random variation
Researchers are interested in learning how different average weight is between
yellow labs and golden retrievers.

For our example on proportion of odd numbers we want to know if students avoid
odd numbers:
