Okay let's set this up as an equation
x + y = 57
y - x = 15

Let's solve this by substitution.
Change y - x = 15 to y = 15 + x.

x + (15 + x) = 57
x + 15 + x = 57
2x + 15 = 57
2x = 42
x = 21

Okay so the first number is 21, let's plug that into the first equation.


x + y = 57
21 + y = 57
y = 57 - 21
y = 36
the two numbers are 21 & 36 :)

Students at an agricultural station conducted a study to compare geneticallymodified (GM) corn with regular corn. Each of 33 plo
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data is represented in the attachment.

a) Explain why yields from one type of corn are not independent of the yields from the other type of corn.

Yields from one type of corn are not independent of the yields from the other type of corn because, as the corns are planted in two similar plots, they could compete during watering process, even the amount of nutrients shared and the type of air. This means one corn may get more nutrients than the other. Therefore, they are not independent (they are dependent).

b) Based on the summary statistics, GM is expected to more likely obtain yield greater than 123, because 123 is greater than mean for regular corn but less than mean for GM corn.

Thus,

P(yield>123|GM)>0.5; and P(yield>123|Regular)<0.5
