Answer
Find out the what is the percent error in the measurement, to the nearest tenth of a percent .
To prove
Formula
Where error = | Approx - Exact |
As given
Karen measures the width of a garden plot and records that it is 44.25 meters. Its actual width is 45.5 meters.
Approx value = 44.25 meters
Actual value = 45.5 meters
error = | 44.25 - 45.5 |
= |-1.25|
= 1.25
Put in the formula
Percentage error = 2.7%
Therefore the percentage error is 2.7% .

Answer:
The line y = -4x - 5 shows the reflection over the y-axis.
From the attached graph, the blue line i.e. y = -4x-5 represents the reflection over the y-axis.
Step-by-step explanation:
When we reflect a line function over the y-axis, all we need is to negate the x-coordinate or value of 'x', while y-coordinate or y-value remains the same.
Given the function
y = 4x-5
replace x with -x
y = 4(-x) - 5
y = -4x - 5
Thus, the line y = -4x - 5 shows the reflection over the y-axis.
From the attached graph, the blue line i.e. y = -4x-5 represents the reflection over the y-axis.
From the graph, it is clear that that that x-coordinate of y = 4x-5 is negated.
