Answer:

To do this, you wold need to know the percent error formula.

Percent Error = (Actual value - Expected Value)/Expected Value x 100

Percent Error = (388 - 400)/400 x 100

P.E = (-12)/400 x 100

-0.03 x 100

-3%

(It could possibly positive, if they don't take negative)

Hope this helps!

Find

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

The two odd numbers are 15 and 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let the odd numbers be represented with x and y

Let x be the greater number

$x + 5y = 92$

Required

Find x and y

Since x and y are consecutive odd numbers and x is greater, then

$x = y + 2$

Substitute y + 2 for x in $x + 5y = 92$

$y + 2 + 5y = 92$

Collect Like Terms

$y + 5y = 92 - 2$

$6y = 90$

Divide both sides by 6

$\frac{6y}{6} = \frac{90}{6}$

$y = \frac{90}{6}$

$y = 15$

Substitute 15 for y in $x = y + 2$

$x = 15 + 2$

$x = 17$

Hence; the two odd numbers are 15 and 17

Find the probability of rolling a twelve first and then a three when a pair of dice is rolled twice?

yawa3891 [41]

Total number of possible outcomes = 36

Total number of outcomes with a sum of 12 = 1
{6,6)

Total number of outcomes with a sum of 3 = 2
{1,2}{2,1}

P(12 first, then 3) = (1/36)(2/36) = 1/648

Answer: The probability is 1/648

Question 1 (3 points)

Basile [38]

Answer:

The mean is 12, The median is 13, The mode is 14, and the range is 8.

The second choice is the correct answer.

Explanation:

I found the mean by adding up all the numbers and dividing by the number of numbers, or sun divided by count. The sum of the numbers was 132, and the count was 11. I divided 132 by 11 to get 12.
I listed the numbers in order from least to greatest. The data set was: 7, 8, 10, 12, 12, 13, 13, 14, 14, 14, 15
I found the median by crossing off the number on each end of the data set, and kept going. For example, I crossed off 8, and then 15, and then 10, and then 14 and so on until I got to the middle number. (Keep in mind, if there are two middle numbers, find the mean of them [add them and divide by two])
The mode is the number that shows up the most in the data set, so I looked at the data set and saw that 14 showed up 3 times, more times than any other number.
The range is the difference between the greatest and least number (maximum and minimum) so I just subtracted 15 - 7 to get a difference of 8.

In the figure, WY¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯WY¯ and XZ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯XZ¯ intersect at point VV, the measure of ∠WVZ∠WVZ is (11x−19)°(11x−19)°, and the me

Zepler [3.9K]

Assuming a diagram similar to the one I've attached, ∠YVZ is a vertical angle to ∠WVX, which means they have an equal measure. Additionally, ∠WVZ and ∠WVX form a linear pair, which means they are supplementary (sum to 180°). That means we start out with the equation
$(11x-19)+(8x+28)=180$
We combine our like terms (the x's get combined, then the constants get combined) and have:
$19x+9=180$
Cancel the 9 first by subtraction:
$19x+9-9=180-9 \\ 19x=171$
Cancel the 19 by division:
$\frac{19x}{19}= \frac{171}{19} \\ x=9$
Since we know that our angle we're looking for, ∠YVZ, is the same measure as ∠WVX, we substitute 9 in for x:
8(9)+28=72+28=100°
