The answer is 5/4 in

The initial length:
1 ft = 12 in
8 ft = 8 * 12 in
      = 96 in

The final length:
7 ft 10 3/4 in = 7 ft + 10 in + 3/4 in
                     = 7 * 12 in + 10 in + 3/4 in
                     = 84 in + 10 in + 3/4 in
                     = 94 in + 3/4 in

The cut if the initial length - final length:
96 in - 94 in - 3/4 in = 2 in - 3/4 in = 8/4 in - 3/4 in = 5/4 in

Conditional probabilities are based on some event occurring given that something else has already occurred?
alex41 [277]

The answer is true. A conditional probability is a measure of the probability of an event given that (by assumption, presumption, assertion or evidence) another event has occurred. If the event of interest is A and the event B is known or assumed to have occurred, "the conditional probability of A given B", or "the probability of A in the condition B", is usually written as P (A|B). The conditional probability of A given B is well-defined as the quotient of the probability of the joint of events A and B, and the probability of B.

Given that G=ab find the percentage increase in G when both a and b<br> increase by 10%
monitta

The percentage change in G is 21 %

<h3>What is Percentage change ?</h3>

Percentage change is defined as the increase or decrease in the value as compared to the original value multiplied by 100.

It is given that

G = ab

when a is increased by 10% the new a will be = 1.1 a

When b is increased by 10% the new b will be 1.1 b

So,

G' = 1.1a *1.1 b

G' = 1.21 ab

G' = 1.21

(G' - G)*100/G = (1.21-1)*100/1

The percentage change is 21 %
