The percent error of Shirley's estimate is 21.74%

<h3>Calculating pecent error</h3>

Given the following parameters

  • Actual length = 23 inches
  • Estimated length = 18in

% error = actual-estimated/actual * 100

% error = 23-18/23 * 100

% error  = 500/23

% error = 21.74%

Hence the percent error of Shirley's estimate is 21.74%

The table shows the temperature (y) at different altitudes (x).
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

2. Using two pairs of values, (0, 59) and (2,000, 51),

slope (m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{51 - 59}{2,000 - 0} = \frac{-8}{2,000} = -\frac{1}{250}

3. The y-intercept is the value of y when x = 0. Thus, x = 0, when y = 59. Therefore,

y-intercept (b) = 59

4. To write an equation in slope-intercept form, simply substitute m = -¹/250, and b = 59, in y = mx + b

✅y = -\frac{1}{250}x + 59

5. Substitute x = 5,000 in y = -\frac{1}{250}x + 59.

y = -\frac{1}{250}(5,000) + 59

y = -20 + 59

y = 39

At an altitude of 5,000 ft, temperature would be 39°F
