Question

A student flips a certain coin 15 times and gets 5 heads. The estimated probability of getting a head with this coin is Number.(Write a decimal answer between O and 1 rounded to 3 decimal places.) However, the margin of error is Number (Answer between 0 and 1, rounded to 3 decimal places.) Thus, we can only conclude (with 95% confidence) that the chance of flipping a head with this coin is anywhere from Number to Number (Write a decimal answer between 0 and 1 rounded to 3 decimal places.) Is the probability of this coin giving a head actually different from 0.5 O Yes, the probability of a head with this coin was shown to be 0.333333, which is clearly different from 0.5 Yes, the 95% confidence interval does not contain 50% so this shows evidence that the true probability of heads for this coin is not 0.5 No, the 95% confidence interval contains 50% as a possibility so it would be illogical to think that the coin had a probability different from 0.5 based on the current sample of data

Explanation / Answer

The estimated probability of getting a head with the given coin is 0.333.

Yes, the probability of a head with this coin was shown to be 0.333333, which is clearly different from 0.5.
