2 / 15 = 30 / x.....2 inches to 15 miles = 30 inches to x miles

could also be :

15 /2 = x/30...15 miles to 2 inches = x miles to 30 inches

either way, u will get the same answer

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

The percent error based on the average measurements is 0.8%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard equation for percent error is [(original - actual)/original} x 100.  The original amount is 100 degrees celcius.  Your average measurement can be found by adding the three temperatures together and dividing by the number of temperatures collected:  98.5 + 99.3 + 99.8 = 297.63/3 = 99.2.  When we place our numbers into the equation and solve, we get:  (100 - 99.2)/100 = 0.008 x 100 (to get our percentage) = 0.8%.

What is the solution for the system of equations? y=−x+4 y= x−2
MissTica

Answer:

(3, 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = - x + 4 → (1)

y = x - 2 → (2)

Substitute y = x - 2 into (1)

x - 2 = - x + 4 ( add x to both sides )

2x - 2 = 4 ( add 2 to both sides )

2x = 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 3

Substitute x = 3 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y

Substituting into (2)

y = 3 - 2 = 1

solution is (3, 1 )
