=====Mathematics 341 - Spring 2013===== ====Homework==== **Chapter 5** Exercises: 5.21, 5.23(e) Also: A newspaper article in 1965 reported that a high school student observed 9207 heads and 8743 tails in 17,950 coin tosses. - If $\pi$ is the probability of tossing a head, test the hypothesis that $H_0 : \pi = \frac{1}{2}$. - It turned out that the student had tossed groups of five coins at a time, with the results as shown in the table below. Test the hypothesis that the observations are from a binomial distribution with probability of heads being $\pi = \frac{1}{2}$. - Test the hypothesis that the observations are from a binomial distribution (that is, the coins each have the same probability of heads, but this probability is not necessarily $\frac{1}{2}$). ^ Number of Heads ^ Frequency ^ | 0 | 100| | 1 | 524| | 2 | 1080| | 3 | 1126| | 4 | 655| | 5 | 105|
