let's firstly convert both fractions with the same denominator, by simply multiplying one by the denominator of the other, let's proceed,

\bf \cfrac{1}{5}\cdot \cfrac{3}{3}\implies \cfrac{3}{15}~\hspace{7em}\cfrac{1}{3}\cdot \cfrac{5}{5}\implies \cfrac{5}{15} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \boxed{\cfrac{3}{15}}\rule[0.35em]{10em}{0.25pt}~~\cfrac{4}{15}~~\rule[0.35em]{10em}{0.25pt}\boxed{\cfrac{5}{15}}

well, low and behold, 4/15 doesn't simplify further and is right between those two, and its denominator is not 4.

Bayes' theorem provides a way to transform prior probabilities into posterior probabilities. Group of answer choices True False
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Bayes' theorem is indeed a way of transforming prior probabilities into posterior probabilities. It is based on the principle of conditional probability. Conditional probability is the possibility that an event will occur because it is dependent on another event.

The prior probability in this theorem is the present understanding we possess about the possible outcome of an event based on the current understanding we have about the subject. Posterior probability on the other hand is the new understanding we have of the subject matter based on an experiment that has just been performed on it. Bayes' Theorem finds widespread application which includes the fields of science and finance. In the finance world, for example, Bayes' theorem is used to determine the probability of a debt being repaid by a debtor.

What value can be written on the blank line to make the expressions equivalent
Gala2k [10]
<span>The expression is missing from the question, but here is the given expression which I got from a similar question.

48 + 54 = ___ ´ (8 + 9)

Theleft-hand side of the equation is:
                                                             48 + 54 = 102
Now the right-hand side of the equation:
                                                                    A </span>× (8+9) = Right-hand side
                                                                    A × (8+9) = 102
Solving for the unknown variable A,
                                                                    A × 17 = 102
Dividing by 17 on both sides,
                                                A × 17 ÷ 17 = 102 ÷ 17
                                                         A × 1 = 6
                                                              A = 6

Hence,
           48 + 54 = 6 x (8 + 9)
