A statistics class conducted an experiment to see if the distance of a toss determined # the success of a toss. Students tossed a coin in a cup from either a short distance (3ft) # or a long distance (6ft). Each attempt was recorded as a make or miss. # The data are summarized below.

# Outcome # Made it! Missed it! Total # Short 9 9 18 # Distance Long 2 17 19 # Total 11 26 37

# (a) Calculate the relative risk of making the toss from a short distance versus a long distance.

# (b) Interpret the relative risk in context.

# (c) Construct a 95% confidence interval for the relative risk.
