Given:
estimate = 140
actual = 152
Percent of error = |(estimate - actual)/actual| * 100%
% of error = |140 - 152| / 152 * 100%
= |-12|/152 * 100%
= 0.0789 x 100%
% of error = 7.89% rounded to the nearest tenth 7.9%
Answer:
36
Step-by-step explanation:
5(4)+16=20+16=36
Marcia dissolved 1 kg of salt in 3 litres of water.
Bobby dissolves 2 pounds of salt in 7 pints of water
2.11 pints = 1 litre
7 pints = 7/2.11
= 3.32 litre
1 pound =0.45 kg
2 pound = o.45*2 kg
= 0.9 kg
So we find that Bobby is dissolving 0.9kg of salt in 3.32 litre of water
Marcia is dissolving 1 kg of salt in 3 litres of water.
So it can be said that Marcia made a more concentrated salt solution.
140 tickets sold at the door
Step by Step Explanation:
x = tickets sold in advance
y = tickets sold at the door
We use the formula ax+by=c and a+b=c
x + y = 514
17x + 20y = 9158
y = 514 - x
17x + 20(514 - x)
17x + 10,280 - 20x = 9,158
-3x + 10,280 = 9,158
-3x = -11222
x = 374
This is for tickets sold in advance so we need to find y
374 + y = 514
y = 140
140 tickets were sold at the door
