Answer: 13&7

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of two numbers x&y is 20

Product of the 2numbers xy is 51

X+y=20......equation 1

XY=51.........equation 2

X=20-y.......equation 3

Substitute for x inequation 3 into equation 2

So we have;

(20-y)y=51

Open the bracket

20y-y^2=51

Collect like terms,so we have

Y2-20y+51=0

Factorise

Factors of 51 is 13&7

So -13-7=-20 &-13×-7=51

Substitute

Y2-13y-7y+51=0

Y(y-13)-7(y-13)=0

(Y-7)(y-13)=0

Y-7=0

Y=7 or

Y-13=0

Y=13

Y=13 or 7

Substitute for y in equation 1

X+y=20

X+7=20

X=20-7

X=13 or

X+13=20

X=20-13

X=7

Therefore, X &Y = 13 &7

Trevor thinks that left-handed pitchers in a baseball league are more likely to strike out batters than right-handed pitchers ar
Scilla [17]

Answer:

C. H0: PL - PR = 0

Ha: PL - PR > 0

The null hypothesis for this case is that left-handed pitchers in a baseball league are not more likely to strike out batters than right-handed pitchers are. That is the proportion of at-bats resulting in a strikeout is significantly equal for both left-handed and right-handed pitchers.

H0: PL - PR = 0

The alternative hypothesis is that the proportion of at-bats resulting in a strikeout is significantly higher for left-handed pitchers

Ha: PL - PR > 0

PL - proportion of at-bats resulting in a strikeout for left-handed pitchers

PR - proportion of at-bats resulting in a strikeout for right-handed pitchers

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis (H0) tries to show that no significant variation exists between variables or that a single variable is no different than its mean. While an alternative Hypothesis (Ha) attempt to prove that a new theory is true rather than the old one. That a variable is significantly different from the mean.

PL - proportion of at-bats resulting in a strikeout for left-handed pitchers

PR - proportion of at-bats resulting in a strikeout for right-handed pitchers
