The percent error in the weight of the envelope is 7.69%.

<h3>What is the percentage?</h3>

Given that Harper weighs it at home as 10.4 ounces and then when she gets to the post office, the clerk weighs it at 9.6 ounces.

The percentage error will be:

= Change in value / Original value × 100

= (10.4 - 9.6) / 10.4 × 100

= 0.8 / 10.4 × 100

= 7.69%

The percentage is 7.69%.

Is the number even or odd?<br>2018−2017+2016−2015 + . . . +2–1
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

It is the odd number 1009

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that this problem involves the addition of a number "1" per consecutive pair (a number minus the integer that immediately precedes it), so it adds "1" (one) every couple of consecutive numbers.

2018 - 2017 = 1

2016 - 2015 = 1

...

4- 3 = 1

2 - 1 = 1

That means it is the addition of 2018/2 = 1009 numbers "1". This clearly results on the number 1009, which is an odd number.

Please helpppp :&lt; here is 25 points
masha68 [24]

Answer:

function b

Step-by-step explanation:

When its asking for which function has a greater rate of change its asking for which slope has a greater value

the slope is calculated by change in y over change in x

for function a, as y goes up 2 x goes up 1

so the slope ( rate of change) is 2/1

for function b is y goes up 3 x goes up 1

so the slope (rate of change) is 3/1

3/1 is greater than 2/1 so function b has a greater rate of change

Find the values of p and q such that 4x^2+12x=4(x+p)^2-q
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

p = 1.5 and q = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Expand the right side then compare the coefficients of like terms on both sides, that is

4(x + p)² - q ← expand (x + p)² using FOIL

= 4(x² + 2px + p²) - q ← distribute parenthesis

= 4x² + 8px + 4p² - q

Comparing coefficients of like terms on both sides

8p = 12 ( coefficients of x- terms ) ← divide both sides by 8

p = 1.5

4p² - q = 0 ( constant terms ), that is

4(1.5)² - q = 0

9 - q = 0 ( subtract 9 from both sides )

- q = - 9 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

q = 9

What is the answer to the question. Solve for x
slega [8]

Answer:

Answer:

x=\frac{75}2

Step-by-step explanation:

Give letters, as in the attached image.

The triangles ABE and CDE are similars (AAA). In particular AE:CE=BE:DE \rightarrow 46:30=(x+20):x \rightarrow 46x=30(x+20) \rightarrow 23x=15x+300 \rightarrow 8x=300\rightarrow  x=\frac{75}2
