You estimate that the driving distance from Raleigh, NC to Charlotte, NC is around 180 miles. When you looked it up on the internet, you found that the actual distance is only 167.5 miles. What was the relative (percent) error of your estimate? In other words, how far off were you from the actual value?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

i. The relative error in the estimated distance is approximately 7.5%.

ii. The value of the estimated distance was about 12.5 miles far of from the actual value.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

Estimated distance  ≅ 180 miles

Actual distance = 167.5 miles

Then,

Estimated distance - Actual distance = 180 - 167.5

                                                             = 12.5 miles

So that,

Relative error = [tex](\frac{estimated distance - actual distance}{actual distance} )[/tex] × 100%

                       = [tex]\frac{12.5}{167.5}[/tex] × 100%

                       = 0.07463 × 100%

                       = 7.5%

i. The relative error in the estimated distance is approximately 7.5%.

ii. The value of the estimated distance was about 12.5 miles far of from the actual value.

3x + 5 = 2x + 2 -(x-3) Pls show work too, thanks :)

Answers

Answer:

X=0

Step-by-step explanation:

1.Remove the parentheses

3x + 5 = 2x + 2 -(x-3)  ->  3x+5=2x+2-x+3

2.Combine like terms

3x+5=2x+2-x+3 -> 3x+5=x+5

3.Cancel Equal Terms

3x+5=x+5 -> (subtract 5 from both sides)  3x=x

(subtract x from both sides) 3x=x ->  3x-x=0

4.Combine like terms

3x-x=0  ->  2x=0

5.Get rid 2 so divide both sides by 2

2x= 0 -> [tex]\frac{2x}{2}[/tex]=[tex]\frac{0}{2}[/tex]  ->

Ben rents a car for one day. The charge is $20 plus the $0.12 per mile. He wants to spend exactly $80. How many miles can he drive? Write and solve an equation to find how many miles Ben can driv

Answers

Answer:

Ben can drive 500 miles for $ 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y be the cost of traveling and x be the number of miles . The charge is $20 plus the $0.12 per mile which means the cost $ 20 is constant and an additional cost of $ 0.12 is spent on every mile. Then according to the given conditions the equation will be

y = $20 + $ 0.12(x) where x is the number of miles

Now we can solve x for y= 80

$ 80= $20 + 0.12 (x)

$ 60 = 0.12x

x= 60/ 0.12= 500

Ben can drive 500 miles for $ 80

whar is the LCM of 1/6 and 3/8​

Answers

Answer: 24

==========================================

There are 3 methods to find the lowest common multiple (LCM)

---------------------------

Method 1

List out the multiples of 6 and 8

multiples of 6 = {6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, ...}

multiples of 8 = {8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, ...}

We see that 24 is the smallest number in both sets at the same time. So this is the LCM.

---------------------------

Method 2

Write the prime factorization of 6 and 8

prime factorization of 6 = 2*3

prime factorization of 8 = 2*2*2

The unique prime factors here are 2 and 3. We have 2 show up at most three times meaning that 2*2*2 = 8 is a factor of the LCM. The number 3 is also a factor meaning that 8*3 = 24 is the LCM.

---------------------------

Method 3

Multiply the denominators 6 and 8 to get 6*8 = 48

48 is a common multiple, but its not the smallest

we can divide 48 over the GCF 2 to get 48/2 = 24, which is the actual LCM.

So when you have 2 different denominators, you can multiply their values and then divide by the GCF to get the LCM.

The answer is "Option A"

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain is the collection of the value, which belongs to the separate variable (horizontal axis). So, to find a region with a graph, it must search for the function, which starts and end. And at all these levels we are searching at x-values.  

Its starting point is (2,9) and the ending point is (8,3).  Therefore, x= 2 to x=8 is the domain.

Thirty overweight males agree to participate in a study of the effectiveness of three weight-loss treatments: X, Y, and Z. The researcher calculates the

effects of a diet may vary based on a subject's initial body fat composition. How should the subjects be blocked? Explain.

They should be blocked alphabetically so the subjects are as different as possible.

They should be blocked by age because weight loss is more difficult to achieve as you get older.

They should be blocked by height because weight loss is easier to achieve for taller people.

They should be blocked by body fat composition so the subjects are as similar as possible.

Blocking should not be used in this experiment.

Answers

Answer:

They should be blocked by body fat composition so the subjects are as similar as possible.

Step-by-step explanation:

It's D .

Blocking here means how should the subjects be arranged in terms of body fat or weight.

Option A is wrong because alphabetically controlling body fat would not get desired results.

Option B is wrong because different age groups would yield different results.

Option C is wrong also because weight loss is not dependent on taller people.

Option D is correct because controlling body fat would yield best possible results in ascending or descending order

Option E is incorrect because  arranging data in ascending or descending order would simplify the researches experiments.

If ∠P measures 27°, ∠R measures 135°, and p equals 9.5, then which length can be found using the Law of Sines?

Answers

Answer:

The length r can be found using the Law of sines.

Length r = 14.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The length r can be found using the Law of sines.

The formula for the Law of Sines states that:

a/Sin A = b/ Sin B

In the above question,

∠P = 27°

∠R = 135°

p = 9.5

r = ????

The formula =

p/Sin P = r/Sin R

9.5/Sin 27° = r/Sin 135°

Cross Multiply

r × Sin 27° = 9.5 × Sin 135°

r = 9.5 × Sin 135°/Sin 27°

r = 14.7966

Approximately Length r = 14.8

2a=205

a=102.5

103.5

I think there is a bug here. They can't be whole numbers.

Answer:

There are no two consecutive whole numbers that sum to 206 (See proof below)

Step-by-step explanation:

let the first number be x

since the numbers are whole and consecutive, the second number must be (x + 1)

we are given that the number sum to 206

hence,

x + (x+1) = 206

x + x + 1 = 206

2x + 1 = 206  (subtract 1 from both sides)

2x = 206 - 1

2x = 205  (divide both sides by 2)

x  = 205/2 = 102.5  (NOT A WHOLE NUMBER)

if x = 102.5, then the second number must be

x + 1 = 102.5 + 1 + 103.5 (ALSO NOT A WHOLE NUMBER)

What is a angle?

An angle is formed when two straight lines or rays meet at a common endpoint.

What is a supplementary angle?

Supplementary angles are those angles that sum up to 180 degrees.

Given that angle A and angle B are supplementary angle

∠A=(7x+10)°

∠B=(7x−26)°

(7x+10)° + (7x−26)° =180°

14x - 16° =180°

14x =196°

x= 14°

∠A=(7x+10)°

∠A=(7(14) +10)°

∠A= 108°

Thus the measure of angle A is 108°

Answers

Hi

draw 1 :  4/12 = 1/3

draw2 :  3/11

draw 3 : 5/10 = 1/2

so probability to have  :  1 banana then 1 apple then 1 orange  is :  1/3*3/11*1/2 =  3/66 =  3*1 / 2*3*11 =  1/22

Answer:

1/22

Step-by-step explanation:

Work out the probability of selecting each fruit then times them together so

there are 12 fruits in total and 4 bananas so the chance of selecting a banana is 4/12 simplified 1/3

then as you dont put the banana back there is only 11 fruits left in the basket and 3 are apples so the chance of selecting an apple is 3/11

then as you dont put the apple back there is only 10 fruit left in the basket and 5 are oranges so the chance of selecting an orange is 5/10 simplified 1/2

then we multiply them all together 1/3 x 3/11 x 1/2 3/66 to get which simplifies to 1/22
