The percent error is the absolute difference of the actual and measured values, divided by the actual value, multiplied by 100. In here, the actual value is 44.5 lb, while the measured value is 46 pounds. 

Percent error =  |44.5 - 46|/44.5 * 100 = <em>3.37%</em>

The image of (-2, 5) is (1, 1) <br> What is the image of (3, 2) under the same translation?
ale4655 [162]
1st to figure out the translation!!
From (-2,5) to (1,1) 
The x values changed 3 values positive that means 3 values right 
and the y values changed 4 values negative that nears 4 values down 

So the rule is 
(x + 3 , y - 4)

(3,2) -- > (6,-2)

Find the missing side round your answer to the nearest tenth
grigory [225]

Answer:

x ≈ 14.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the triangle is right then use Pythagoras' identity.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is

x² + 15² = 21²

x² + 225 = 441 ( subtract 225 from both sides )

x² = 216 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = \sqrt{216} ≈ 14.7 ( to the nearest tenth )
