James estimated the total cost of groceries to be $50. The actual cost of the groceries is $65. What is the percent error? Round

Alex777 [14]

To get percent error you take actual-predicted and divide by the actual then multiply by 100 to get the percent.

65-50=15

15/60=0.25

0.25 times 100 =25%

An English teacher needs to pick 9 books to put on his reading list for the next school year, and he needs to plan the order in

Nikitich [7]

Answer: $4.37\times10^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Number of choices for novels = 4

Number of choices for plays = 6

Number of choices for poetry books = 5

Number of choices for nonfiction books = 5

Total books =4+6+5+5=20

If he wants to include all 4 novels, then the number of books left to select = 9-4=5

Remaining choices for books = 20-4=16

Number of combinations of n things taking r at a time : $\dfrac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}$

Then, the number of different reading schedules are possible :_

$^4C_4\times^{16}C_5\\\\=\dfrac{4!}{4!(4-4)!}\times\dfrac{16!}{5!(16-5)!}\\\\=(1)\times\dfrac{16\times15\times14\times13\times12\times11!}{120\times11!}\\\\=4368=4.368\times10^3\approx4.37\times10^3$

Hence, the required answer is $4.37\times10^3$ .

Today there are a total of six toll-free area codes: 800, 844, 855, 866, 877, and 888. Assume that all seven digits for the rest

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

$6 \times 10^{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of toll-free area codes = 6

A complete number will be of the form:

800-abc-defg

Where abcdefg can be any 7 numbers from 0 to 9. This holds true for all the 6 area codes.

Finding the possible toll free numbers for one area code and multiplying that by 6 will give use the total number of toll free numbers for all 6 area codes.

Considering: 800-abc-defg

The first number "a" can take any digit from 0 to 9. So there are 10 possibilities for this place. Similarly, the second number can take any digit from 0 to 9, so there are 10 possibilities for this place as well and same goes for all the 7 numbers.

Since, there are 10 possibilities for each of the 7 places, according to the fundamental principle of counting, the total possible toll free numbers for one area code would be:

Possible toll free numbers for 1 area code = 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 = $10^{7}$

Since, there are 6 toll-free are codes in total, the total number of toll-free numbers for all 6 area codes = $6 \times 10^{7}$
