Small, because 1 divided by 8 = 0.125, and 3 divided by 4 = .75 Hope this helps!

Hello! First, we need to find a common denominator. Let's use 8. The fractions are 1/8 and 6/8 (formerly 3/4). 6/8 is larger than 1/8, therefore 3/4 is greater than 1/8. I hope this helped! Feel free to rate my answer!

How far above sea level is the ranger station?

Schach [20]

Since he descended 12 meters, we subtract this from the overall height of Mount Ka'ala, so then we are only calculating how high ABOVE the sea level it is.

1232 - 12 = 1220

The height of Mount Ka'ala is therefore 1,220 meters.
To calculate how much a fifth of Mount Ka'ala is (since the ranger station is 2/5's up), we would divide this number by 5

1220 ÷ 5 = 244

Since ONE fifth of the height is 244 meters, TWO fifths would be double that amount.

244 x 2 = 488

488 meters.
The ranger station is 488m above sea level.

A new test has been developed to detect a particular type of cancer. The test must be evaluated before it is put into use. A med

Troyanec [42]

The tree diagram of the problem above is attached
There are four outcomes of the two events,

First test - Cancer, Second Test - Cancer, the probability is 0.0396
First test - Cancer, Second Test - No Cancer, the probability is 0.0004
First test - No Cancer, Second Test - There is cancer, the probability is 0.0096
First test - No cancer, Second Test - No cancer, the probability is 0.9054

The probability of someone picked at random has cancer given that test result indicates cancer is $\frac{0.0396}{0.0396+0.0096}= \frac{33}{41}$

The probability of someone picked at random has cancer given that test result indicates no cancer is $\frac{0.0396}{0.0004+0.9504} = \frac{99}{2377}$

Six times a number increased by 5

sergey [27]

I'm not quite sure what you asking here but if your asking how to answer it in "math terms" than I'll be happy to explain :)

So "times" means multiply and "increase" means add so righting this in math terms would be
6x + 5
because it's six times "a number" which you can replace with x!

Let me know if you have any questions :3
