The answer to the question stated above is:

What are given?
      250- estimated people 
      315- no. of people who actually attended.
What is asked?
      percent error
Solve:
Subtract 250 from 315
So, the error is 65. To get the percentage error, divide 65 by 315. You will then get 0.20634...Multiply the result with 100. The percentage error then is 20.63%.

One number is 6 times another number. it is also 12 more than twice the other number. Find the numbers.
stepan [7]

The numbers are 3 and 18

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Let one number be x. Then the other number = 6x.

Also, 6x = 12 + 2x

⇒ 4x = 12

⇒ x = 3

⇒ 6x = 18

A box has 11 marbles, 3 of which are white and 8 of which are red. A sample of 4 marbles are selected randomly from the box with
aliina [53]

14/99

Select 1 marble; the chance that it is white is 4/12. Select a 2nd marble; the chance that it is white is 3/11. Select a 3rd; the chance it is white is 2/10. Select a 4th; the chance it is red is 8/9. Select a 5th; the chance it is red is 7/8. The chance of getting this specific set of 5 marbles in this order is (4/12)×(3/11)×(2/10)×(8/9)×(7/8)=(2×7)/(11×10×9).

This specific set could occur in the permutation of 5 things taken 5 at a time where 3 are identical (white), and the other 2 are also identical (red). The formula for this is 5!/(3!2!)=10.

Combining the chance of getting white, white, white, red, red with the number of ways 3 white and 2 red could have been distributed in the draw of 5 marbles gives the answer:

{(2×7)/(11×10×9)}×10=14/99

A similar process will show that the chance of getting 5 red marbles is 7/99; 4 white and 1 red is 1/99; 2 white and 3 red is 42/99; and 1 white and 4 red is 35/99.
