Answer #1

The coin has 95 percent confidence interval on the probability that it will come up head.

So to test it's fairness we can practically flip a coin 10 to15 times or 20 times and find out the probability of occurrence of head and calculate it's percentage of occurrence of head.Then we can check it's fairness,if it's more than 50 percent then it's biased or unfair coin.

For the above coin, it's given the probability of head is 95 percent,so if I toss the coin for 10 times,then at least 9 times head will occur and almost 10 times head will occur.

Hence we checked and verified the unfairness of the coin by the above method.
