Probability1 *Probability2
0.35 = 0.48 * P2
0.35/0.48 = P2
P2 = 0.7291666...,

Using proportions, it is found that he must have fewer at bats than Player A, as the batting average is inverse proportional to the number of at bats, hence you friend is incorrect.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct or inverse proportional, can be built to find the desired measures in the problem.
The batting average is given by the division of the number of hits by the number of at bats. Player B has fewer hits but a greater batting average, which means that he must have fewer at bats than Player A, as the batting average is inverse proportional to the number of at bats, hence you friend is incorrect.

Answer:
<u>greater risk of a Type I error and a lower risk of a Type II error </u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Remember</em>, in statistics, alpha (or the significance level) α, refers to the probability of rejecting the null hypothesis when it is true.
Hence, setting alpha at 0.05 (or 5%) instead of 0.01 (or 1%) implies that the researcher is increasing how far away the statistics data needs to be from the null hypothesis value before they can decide to reject the null hypothesis. In other words, a probability of 5% is greater than 1%, resulting in a greater risk of a Type I error and a lower risk of a Type II error.
-2 because they are negatives so the closer to 0 the bigger the number
