we dont know what is the two numbers so let us assume that one is x and other is y

so the sum of two numbers will be x+y which is equal to 51

x+y=51

and their difference is 9

x-y=9

so now we have two equations we can solve this by elimination method.

x+y=51 x-y=9

we know that we have -y and +y which is same value with opposite sign so we can cancel it and x+x will be 2x and 51+9=60

2x=60 x=30

we can plug x=30 in any one of the equations

x+y=51 30+y=51 y=21

x=30,  y=21

An article estimates, with 90% confidence, that the proportion of elementary school teachers who are female is 82%. The article
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:   (80% , 85%)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that, confidence interval for population proportion is given by :-

(p-E , p+E)

, where p = sample proportion , E = Margin of error.

Given : Proportion of elementary school teachers who are female = 82%.

The article also states the maximum error of their estimate = 3%.

Then, the 90% confidence interval for the proportion of elementary school teachers who are female will be :

(82%-2% , 82%+3%)

= (80% , 85%)

Hence, the resulting 90% confidence interval for the proportion of elementary school teachers who are female = (80% , 85%)
