Answer:

for the volume a cube

Possible error = 1350cm³

Relative error = 0.05

Percentage error = 5%

For the surface area of a cube

Possible error = 180cm²

Relative error = 0.0333

Percentage error = 3.33%

Step-by-step explanation:

A cube is a three dimensional solid object with six (6) faces, twelve (12) edges and eight(8) vertices.

The volume of a cube = x³

Where x= length of the edge of a cube

X = 30cm 0.5cm

Differentiate V with respect to x (V = Volume of a cube)

dV/dx= 3 x²

dV= 3 x² . dx

dV = 3 × 30² × (0.5)

dV= 2700(0.5)

= 1350cm³

Maximum possible error = 1350cm³

Relative error = possible error /Volume

= dV/V

Recall that V = x³

V= (30)³

A = 27000cm³

Substitute the values for and V into the formula for Relative error

Relative error = 1350/27000

Relative error = 0.05

% error = Relative error × 100

= 0.05× 100

= 5%

Surface Area of a cube = 6x²

A = 6x²

Differentiate A with respect to x

dA/dx = 12x

dA/dx = 12x . dx

= 12 × 30 (0.5)

= 180cm²

Maximum possible error = 180cm²

Relative error = possible error / surface area

= dA/A

Recall that A = 6x²

A = 6(30)²

A = 5400cm²

Substitute the values for and A into the formula for Relative error

Relative error = 180/5400

Relative error = 0.0333(4 decimal place)

% error = Relative error × 100

= 0.0333 × 100

= 3.33%

Answer:

  B  80 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a parallelogram has the same formula as the area of a rectangle:

  A = bh . . . . . b is the base; h is the height

  A = (10 in)(8 in)

  A = 80 in²

The minimum amount of material needed is 80 square inches.
