A fair coin should land showing tails with a relative frequency of 50% in a long series of flips. Connor reads that spinning - rather than flipping - a US penny on a flat surface is not fair, and that spinning a penny makes it more likely to land showing tails. She spun her own penny 100 times to test this and the penny landed showing tails in 60% of the spins. Let p represent the proportion of spins that this penny would land showing tails.

What are appropriate hypotheses for Connor's significance test?

A. H_0 : p = 50% H_1 : p > 60%

B. H_0: p = 50% H_1: p > 50%

C. H_0: p = 50% H_1: p < 50%

D. H_0 : p = 60% H_1 : p < 60%
