1 answer:
Answer: 4/15 of the movie
Step-by-step explanation:
In the morning, Charlie watched ¹/₃ of a movie. He then watched some more at night.
At the end of the day, he still had ²/₅ of the movie to watch.
The proportions of an item must always add up to one. This means that if you added the 1/3 to the 2/5 and then to the fraction Charlie watch at night, they should add up to one.
¹/₃ + ²/₅ + x = 1
x = 1 - ¹/₃ - ²/₅

Answer:
37.27% probability that he or she will have a heart attack.
Step-by-step explanation:
Bayes Theorem:
Two events, A and B.
In which P(B|A) is the probability of B happening when A has happened and P(A|B) is the probability of A happening when B has happened.
In this question:
Event A: Periodontal disease
Event B: Heart attack
Researchers discovered that 82% of people who have suffered a heart attack had periodontal disease, an inflammation of the gums.
This means that
Only 33% of healthy people have this disease.
This means that
Suppose that in a certain community heart attacks are quite rare, occurring with only 15% probability.
This means that
If someone has periodontal disease, what is the probability that he or she will have a heart attack
37.27% probability that he or she will have a heart attack.
