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

e. He's considering each "at-bat" as an opportunity for a strikeout. He takes a random sample of at-bats where the pitcher was left-handed, and he records the proportion of those at-bats that result in a strikeout. He repeats this process for at-bats with right-handed pitchers. He wants to use the results to test if the proportion of at-bats resulting in a strikeout is significantly higher for left-handed pitchers. Which of the following is an appropriate set of hypotheses for Trevor'?
A. H0: PR - PL = 0
Ha: PR - PL > 0
B. H0: PL - PR = 0
Ha: PL - PR < 0
C. H0: PM - PR = 0
Ha: PL - PR > 0
D. H0: PR - PL = 0
Ha: PR - PL not equal to 0

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.

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

Malik collects rare stamps and has a total of 212 stamps. He has 34 more domestic stamps than foreign stamps. Let x represent th
Nana76 [90]
The equation that represents the total number of stamps malik collected is x + y = 212. The equation that represents the difference in the number of foreign and domestic stamps malik collected is: x - y = 34. This is the system of two equations. Malik has a total of 212 stamps: x + y = 212. He has 34 more domestic stamps (x) than foreign stamps (y): x = y + 34. If we rearrange it, we have x - y = 34. So, this is the system of two equations: x + y = 212 and x - y = 34.<span>

Can you evaluate the expressions for the given value. (show steps if you can)
exis [7]

Answer:

Q1. -45

Q2. -10

Q3. 31?

Step-by-step explanation:

Q1 -- you times -8 and 2 which comes out to -16. Since you have -16 + 1 inside of the parentheses you add 1 to -16 which comes out to -15. Then you take -15 times 3 and it comes out to -45.

Q2 -- the m gets replaced by the 5 so now its -2 times 5. Which comes out to -10. Then you take -10 times 2, which is -20. Now take -20 + 10 which gives us the answer of -10.

Q3 -- I'm not completely sure on this one but I think the equation would transfer to this 2*5 + 5*3 + 2*3. So 2*5 is 10, 5*3 is 15, and 2*3 is 6. Add them all together and you get 31.

I hope this was right and it helps you!
