a. Jada got the measurement 16m.
b. The measured depth differ 0.2m from the actual depth.
c. There is a 12.66% error in calculation.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
The depth of lake = 15.8 m
a. Jada accurately measured the depth of the lake to the nearest meter. What measurement did Jada get
When a digit after the decimal point is 5 or more than that, the number before decimal is rounded to the next number.
Therefore,
15.8 rounded to nearest number is 16.
The depth of lake measured by Jada = 16 m
Jada got the measurement 16m.
b. By how many meters does the measured depth differ from the actual depth?
Difference = Approx - Exact
Difference = 16 - 15.8 = 0.2m
The measured depth differ 0.2m from the actual depth.
c. Express the measurement error ad a percentage of the actual depth.
Percent error = 
Percent error = 
Percent error = 12.66%
There is a 12.66% error in calculation.

Answer:The answer is A, 15 I believe if i did the math right.
Step-by-step explanation: First you take the equation: f(x)= 0.86x-0.09
Then you plug in x witch in this case is 18 so f(18)=0.86(18)-0.09= 15.39 So round to the nearest whole number and you get 15.
Answer:
[C] 25π square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>Given that:</em></u>
<em>the long hand of the clock is about 5 inches long.</em>
<u><em>To Find:</em></u>
<em>What is the approximate area of the clock face?</em>
<u><em>Solve:</em></u>
<em>Formula - </em><em>A =πr²</em>
<em>Note that;</em>
<em>π = 3.14 (about)</em>
<em>Radius - 5 inches</em>
<em>A =πr²</em>
<em>A = 3.14(5)²</em>
<em>A = 3.14(25)</em>
<em>A = 78.5</em>
<em>Now let see the answer choices:</em>
<em>A. 5π square inches ≈ 5(3.14) = 15.7</em>
<em>B. 10 π square inches ≈ 10(3.14) = 31.4</em>
<em>C. 25 π square inches ≈ 25(3.14) = 78.5</em>
<em>D. 100 π square inches ≈ 100(3.14) = 314</em>
<em />
<em>Hence, the answer is [C] 25 π square inches </em>
