Sam counts how many people came to the local political meeting. He counts 72 people, but forgot about the 4 people sitting behind him.

The percent error in his calculation is __________.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The percent error in his calculation is 5.26%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent error:

Number of misses multiplied by 100 and divided by the correct value.

In this question:

Total of 72 + 4 = 76 people. 4 were missed, so:

[tex]E = \frac{4(100)}{76} = \frac{400}{76} = 5.26[/tex]

The percent error in his calculation is 5.26%.

Answer 2

Answer: 5.55 which is 5.6.

Step-by-step explanation:

You take the number of misses (4) and multiply it by 100= 400

then you divide that by the total people (72)

400/72= 5.55 or 5.6

Answers

Answer:

1) D - 30 cm 2) 12 percents

Step-by-step explanation:

The first question was If two perpendicular sides of a right-angled triangle are 5 cm and 12 cm, its perimeter is: (A) 13 cm (B) 17 cm (C) 27 cm (D) 30 cm

two perpendicular sides are legs, find the hipotenuse of the triangle

It is equal to sqrt(5^2+12^2)= sqrt169=13

5+12+13=30 - D - the perimeter

The second question

7500 -100 percents

8400- x

7500/8400=100/x

75/84=100/x

(25/28)*x=100

(1/28)*x=4

x=4/(1/28)= 4*28= 112 percents

The profit is 12 percents

2) Option D is correct. If two perpendicular sides of a right-angled triangle are 5 cm and 12 cm, its perimeter will be 30cm.

3) None of the given options are correct. If an article is purchased for 7,500 and sold for 8,400, the profit percentage will be 12%

2) A right-angled triangle is a triangle with three sides and one of its angles is 90degrees. Find the image of a right-angled triangle attached below.

The triangle consists of 3 sides which are:

The opposite sideThe adjacent sideThe hypotenuse side

Before we can get the perimeter of the right triangle, we need to get the third side first (the hypotenuse side) using the Pythagoras theorem. According to the theorem:

[tex]c^2=a^2+b^2[/tex]

Given

a = 5 cm

b =12 cm

[tex]c^2=5^2+12^2\\c^2=25+144\\c^2=169\\c=\sqrt{169}\\c=13 cm[/tex]

Perimeter of the right triangle = a + b + c

Perimeter of the right triangle = 5 cm + 12 cm + 13 cm

Perimeter of the right triangle = 30 cm

Hence the perimeter of the right triangle is 30 cm.

3) If an article is purchased for 7,500, then;

Cost price (C.P) = 7,500

If the same article is sold for 8,400, then:

Selling price (S.P) = 8,400

[tex]\% profit=\frac{SP-CP}{CP} \times 100[/tex]

Substitute the given parameters

[tex]\% profit=\frac{8400-7500}{7500} \times 100\\\%profit=\frac{900}{7500} \times 100 \\\%profit=\frac{900}{75}\\\% profit = 12 \%[/tex]

This shows that the profit percent is 12%

Which point should be removed for the graph to represent a table of equivalent ratios?
A. (2, 10)
B. (3, 15)
C. (4, 20)
D. (5, 15)

Answers

Answer:  D.   (5,15)

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

Explanation:

As the graph shows, three of the four points are on the same line. That line being y = 5x. This line has slope 5 and y intercept 0.

The point not fitting this pattern is the point (5,15), so that is the final answer.

For the other three points, note that the jump from x to y coordinate is "times 5". For example, y = 5x = 5*2 = 10 for point A. In contrast, point D has a jump of "times 3" when going from x to y.

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

Alternatively, you can divide each y coordinate by its corresponding x coordinate.

For choice A, we have y/x = 10/2 = 5Choice B has y/x = 15/3 = 5Choice C has y/x = 20/4 = 5

All results are 5 so far. Choice D doesn't follow the trend and instead has y/x = 15/5 = 3. This is another way to show that choice D is the answer.

O 185
O 200

O 150

Answers

The expected value, E(x) of the given observation is 185

The expected value is the mean of the overall observed value or random value. In other words, it is the average of the observed values.

The given parameters can be represented as:

[tex]\begin{array}{cccc}x & {100} & {200} & {300} \ \\ P(x) & {40\%} & {35\%} & {25\%} \ \end{array}[/tex]

The following formula calculates the expected value:

[tex]E(x) =\sum x * P(x)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]E(x) = 100 * 40\% + 200 * 35\% + 300 * 25\%[/tex]

[tex]E(x) = 40 + 70 + 75[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If you want to divide 2380 by 10… sry gtg

The 8 will end up in the "ones place".

How can we interpret the division?

When 'a' is divided by 'b', then the result we get from the division is the part of 'a' that each one of 'b' items will get. Division can be interpreted as equally dividing the number that is being divided into total x parts, where x is the number of parts the given number is divided.

Answer:

  a) 2.038 seconds

  b) 5.918 meters

  c) 1.076 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

For the purpose of answering these questions, it is convenient to put the given equation into vertex form.

  h = -4.9t² +9.2t +1.6

  = -4.9(t² -(9.2/4.9)t) +1.6

  = -4.9(t² -(9.2/4.9)t +(4.6/4.9)²) +1.6 +4.9(4.6/4.9)²

  = -4.9(t -46/49)² +290/49

__

a) To find h = 0, we solve ...

  0 = -4.9(t -46/49)² +290/49

  290/240.1 = (t -46/49)² . . . . subtract 290/49 and divide by -4.9

  √(2900/2401) +46/49 = t ≈ 2.0378 . . . . seconds

The ball takes about 2.038 seconds to fall to the ground.

__

b) The maximum height is the h value at the vertex of the function. It is the value of h when the squared term is zero:

  290/49 m ≈ 5.918 m

The maximum height of the ball is about 5.918 m.

__

c) We want to find t for h ≥ 4.5.

  h ≥ 4.5

  -4.9(t -46/49)² +290/49 ≥ 4.5

Subtracting 290/49 and dividing by -4.9, we have ...

  (t -46/49)² ≥ 695/2401

Taking the square root, and adding 46/49, we find the time interval to be ...

  -√(695/2401) +46/49 ≤ t ≤ √(695/2401) +46/49

The difference between the interval end points is the time above 4.5 meters. That difference is ...

  2√(695/2401) ≈ 1.076 . . . . seconds

The ball is at or above 4.5 meters for about 1.076 seconds.

I like a graphing calculator for its ability to answer these questions quickly and easily. The essentials for answering this question involve typing a couple of equations and highlighting a few points on the graph.

Additional comment

I have a preference for "exact" answers where possible, so have used fractions, rather than their rounded decimal equivalents. The calculator I use deals with these fairly nicely. Unfortunately, the mess of numbers can tend to obscure the working.

"Vertex form" for a quadratic is ...

  y = a(x -h)² +k . . . .  where the vertex is (h, k) and 'a' is a vertical scale factor.

In the above, we have 'a' = -4.9, and (h, k) = (46/49, 290/49) ≈ (0.939, 5.918)

90units needed 8 units per case what's the #of cases & # of additional units

Answers

Answer:

# of cases: 11

Additional units: 2

Step-by-step explanation:

If each case can hold 8 units, and we want to find the total # number of cases, we have to divide the # of units (8) for one case by the total # units (90).

As you can see, after dividing by 8, we have a total of 11 cases and a remainder of 2 units. The remainder will be the # of additional units because we cannot have another case filled with 8 units.

A right pyramid with a square base has
volume of 252 cubic centimeters. The
length of one of the sides of its base is 6
centimeters. Rounded to the nearest
centimeter, what is the vertical height of
the pyramid?

Answers

Hey there!

A right pyramid with a square base just means that it isn't slanted all funny. If you create a triangle with a point on one of the edges of the base, the center of the base, and the top of the pyramid, it would be a right triangle.

To find the volume of a right pyramid, you just take the base area, multiply it by the height, and then divide by three.

However, we are looking for the height. We have been given, so we will just go backwards.

252×3=756 (multiply instead of divide)

6×6=36 (base is a square, so you just square 6. This is our base area)

756/36=21

So, the vertical height of the pyramid is 21 cubic centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall: SOH CAH TOA

8. Reference angle (θ) = 30°

Opposite = 8√3

Adjacent = SU

Apply TOA,

Tan θ = Opp/Adj

Substitute

Tan 30° = 8√3/SU

Tan 30° × SU = 8√3

SU = 8√3/Tan 30°

SU = 8√3/(1/√3) (tan 30° = 1/√3)

SU = 8√3*√3/1

SU = 8*3

SU = 24

9. Reference angle (θ) = 30°

Opposite = 8√3

Hypotenuse = TU

Apply SOH,

Sin θ = Opp/Hyp

Substitute

Sin 30° = 8√3/TU

Sin 30° × TU = 8√3

TU = 8√3/sin 30°

TU = 8√3/(½) (sin 30° = ½)

TU = 8√3 × 2/1

TU = 16√3
