The equation to find percent error is:
percent error=(experimental-theoretical)/theoretical *100
So, (115-82.5)/82.5=0.393939*100
39.3939%, or 39.94%
Hope this helps!!
Answer:
true.
Explanation:
still negative.
If a negative number is raised to an even power, the result will be positive. If a negative number is raised to an odd power, the result will be negative
Answer:
H0: μ = 5 versus Ha: μ < 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
μ = true average radioactivity level(picocuries per liter)
5 pCi/L = dividing line between safe and unsafe water
The recommended test here is to test the null hypothesis, H0: μ = 5 against the alternative hypothesis Ha: μ < 5.
A type I error, is an error where the null hypothesis, H0 is rejected when it is true.
We know type I error can be controlled, so safer option which is to test H0: μ = 5 vs Ha: μ < 5 is recommended.
Here, a type I error involves declaring the water is safe when it is not safe. A test which ensures that this error is highly unlikely is desirable because this is a very serious error. We prefer that the most serious error be a type I error because it can be explicitly controlled.
Given:
First side(A): 2B - 7
Second side(B): B
Third side(C): B + 4
Plug in values:
A + B + C = 80
2B - 7 + B + B + 4 = 80
If you look at the coefficients only, you can rewrite the equation like this:
2B + B + B - 7 + 4 = 80
This means that 4B - 7 + 4 = 80
=4B - 3 = 80
= 4B = 80 + 3
B = 83/4, so you can either write B as 83/4 or as 20.75.
Checking your work:
A: 2(20.75) - 7 = 34.5
B: 20.75
C: 4 + 20.75 = 24.75
34.5 + 20.75 + 24.75 = 80cm.
Hope this helped.
