Answer=1/24

1/3+5/8=
to solve for this, we need the denominators of the fractions to match.

The LCM of 3 and 8 is 24

1/3=8/24
5/8=15/24

8/24+15/24=23/24

Now if we're using 23/24, then only 1/24 is left.

24/24-23/24=1/24

A glass bead has the shape of a rectangular prism with a smaller rectangular prism removed. What is the volume of the glass that
olganol [36]

The volume of the removed portion is 35 cm³.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The length× width× height (L×B×H) of the outer part = 3 cm×3 cm×7 cm

The length× width× height (l×b×h) of the inner part = 2 cm×2 cm×7 cm

To find the volume of the removed portion.

Formula

The volume of the removed portion = volume of outer part - volume of inner part

Volume of rectangular prism = l×b×h

Now,

Volume of outer part = 3×3×7 cm³ = 63 cm³

Volume of inner part = 2×2×7 cm³ = 28 cm³

Hence,

The volume of the removed portion = 63-28 cm³ = 35 cm³

Travka [436]
Let x = width
x+1 is then the length

2x+2(x+1)=66
2x+2x+2=66
4x=64
x=16
deck will be 16x17, nice for a BBQ. :)

A website reports that 70% of its users are from outside a certain country, and 60% of its users logon the website every day. Su
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

The value is P (I |  L  )  =     0.63

The probability has increased

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The percentage that are from outside the country is  P(O) =  0.70

    The  percentage that logs on everyday is  P(L) =  0.60

    The  percentage that logs on everyday that are from the inside the country is     P(L  |  I) =  0.80

Generally using Bayes' Rule the probability that a person is from the country given that he logs on the website every day is mathematically represented as

     P (I |  L  )  =  \frac{P(I)* P(L|I)}{ P(O) *P(L|O) + P(I) *P(L|I) }

Where  P(I) is the percentage that are from inside that country which is mathematically represented as

       P(I) =  1 -  P(O)

      P(I) =  1 -  0.70

      P(I) =  0.30

And P(L| O) is  percentage that logs on everyday that are from the outside  the country which is evaluated as

      P(L| O)  =  1-  P(L| I)

       P(L| O)  =  1-  0.80

       P(L| O)  = 0.20

P (I |  L  )  =  \frac{ 0.3* 0.80 }{ 0.7 *0.20 + 0.3 * 0.8 }    

P (I |  L  )  =     0.63

Given that the percentage that are from inside that country is  P(I) =  0.30

and that the probability that a person is from the country given that he logs on the website every day is  P (I |  L  )  =     0.63

We see that the additional information increased the probability
