1. Explain how measurements taken by standard rulers and scales are limited,

Answer:

Please find the answer in the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

RULER

measurements taken by ruler can be limited due to absolute errors, zero error and uncertainties.

1.) If the end of the ruler is worn out giving rise to a zero error

2.) The calibration of the ruler may give rise to another systematic error if the makings are incorrect.

3.) If the object to be measured is not on the same level as graduated surface of the ruler, the angle at which the scale is viewed will affect the result. This is known as parallax error.

SCALE

Systematic error can occur in a scale when the scale is wrongly calibrated.

Also, reading a scale from different angles introduces a variable parallax error.

random uncertainty could be a parallax error caused by taking readings from different angles. This can be reduced by the use of a mirror behind the scale and viewing normally.

ratelena [41]

Answer:

B(m)=A(m)-D(m)

B(m)=176m

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given

Walking on his own, the distance, D, in feet, that Roberto can cover in M, minutes is given by the function

D(m)=264m

When he walks on the moving sidewalk at the airport, the distance, A, in feet, that he can cover in m m minutes is given by the function

A(m)=440m

B is the distance, in feet, that Roberto would travel on the moving sidewalk in  m minutes if he were standing still

moving sidewalk distance = standstill distance + walking distance

A(m)=D(m)+B(m)

so, we get

B(m)=A(m)-D(m)

now, we can plug values

B(m)=440m-264m

B(m)=176m

What is the slope of this line?
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

In the Slope-Intercept Formula, <em>y</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>mx</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>b</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>m</em><em> </em>is the <em>Rate</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>Change</em><em> </em>[<em>Slope</em>]. Anyway, starting from the <em>y-intercept</em><em> </em>of [0, 2], move 3 units <em>north</em><em> </em>over 1 unit <em>east</em><em>.</em><em> </em>That is called <em>rise</em><em>\</em><em>run</em><em> </em><em>→</em><em> </em>3\1 = 3.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.
