Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Identify the Problem
The problem involves determining whether we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis (Ho: p = 0.5) based on the given data.
Step 2: Understand the Given Data
Probability of heads (p): 0.5
Number of tosses: 30
Number of heads: 19
Number of tails: 11
Number of repetitions: 500
Proportion of repetitions with heads ≥ 20: 24/500 = 0.0480
p-value: 0.0339 (z = 1.83)
Step 3: Analyze the p-value
The p-value is 0.0339, which is less than the common significance level of 0.05. This indicates that the observed result is statistically significant.
Final Answer
True. We have evidence to reject the null hypothesis (Ho: p = 0.5).
