Think of two ropes next to each other. Draw a picture if it helps. To find how much longer, start with the longer one and subtract the shorter length to get the difference, or “how much longer.”
To subtract fractions they have to be changed to the same denominator. First change 3 2/3 to a complex fraction; multiply the coefficient 3 times the denominator 3, then add the numerator. 3X3=9. 9+2=11 . 11 is now numerator, use same denominator. So you get 11/3. Then change denominator to 9. To do this you have to multiply by what? You would multiply by 3. Do the same to the numerator: 11 X 3=33. The fraction becomes 33/9. Now you can subtract. Now that both have the same denominator, you just subtract the numerators. 33-8=25. So, 33/9-8/9= 25/9

In a coastal town, the humidity, measured in grams of water per kilogram of air, increases by 43% for every 1 degree celsius inc

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

In order to increase humidity by 49.17 grams per kilogram, the increase in temperature will be 18 degree Celsius approx.

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial humidity = 5.75 g/kg

Final humidity= 49.17 g/kg

Percentage increase in humidity= (49.17-5.75)/5.75 *100= 755.13

Increase in temperature= 755.13/43 = 17.56

Increase in temperature = 18 degree Celsius approx.

Describe the difference between a probability derived from the analytic view (logical analysis), the Relative Frequency view (sa

oee [108]

Answer:

See the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>Analytic View:</h2>

If and event can occur in A number of way and fail in B number of ways, then probability of its occurrence is:

$P(A)= \frac{A}{A+B}$

or probability of its failing is:

$P(B)=\frac{B}{A+B}$

<h3>Example:</h3>

Rolling a number smaller than 3 in a dice.

A= 2 (1,2)

B = 4 (3,4,5,6)

$P(A)= \frac{2}{2+4}=\frac{1}{3}$

<h2>Relative Frequency View:</h2>

Definition of Probability in terms of past performances (data). It can be taken as how often things happens divided by all outcomes.

<h3>Example:</h3>

A batter has 50 safe hits at 200 bats, which makes his batting average $\frac{50}{200}= 0.25$ which is the probability.

<h2>Subjective View:</h2>

When you define a probability due to personel beleif in the likelihood of an outcome. It involve no formal calculations and varies from person to person, depending on their past experience.

<h3>Example:</h3>

A person beleives that probability that the batter will hit safely in the next bat is 0.75
