Find the greatest possible error for the measurement 4.7 cm. 0.05 cm 0.5 cm 1.0 cm

Mathematics
1 answer:
NeTakaya3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

  0.05 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The least-significant digit in the given measurement is the one in the 0.1 cm number place. The "greatest possible error" is half the value of that number place, so is ...

  (0.1 cm)/2 = 0.05 cm . . . . "greatest possible error"

_____

For questions of this sort, we make the (not always practical) assumption that the measurement is rounded perfectly to the nearest 0.1 cm.

tatiyna

Answer: $75

Step-by-step explanation: First he bought tires for 45.00 dollars - later sold it as 65.0 dollars.

=> 65 - 45 = 20 dollars is his profit

he brought 3 rims for 85 dollar - then later sold it as 126 dollars

=> 126 - 85 = 41 dollars

He bought headlight for 5.00 dollars then sold it later for 15 dollars.

=> 15 - 5 = 10 dollars

Total expenses

=> 134

Total amount sold

=> 209

Profit => 209 - 134 = 75 dollars

Lightbulbs of a certain type are advertised as having an average lifetime of 750 hours. The price of these bulbs is very favorab
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

(a) Customer will not purchase the light bulbs at significance level of 0.05

(b) Customer will purchase the light bulbs at significance level of 0.01 .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Light bulbs of a certain type are advertised as having an average lifetime of 750 hours. A random sample of 50 bulbs was selected,  and the following information obtained:

Average lifetime = 738.44 hours and a standard deviation of lifetimes = 38.2 hours.

Let Null hypothesis, H_0 : \mu = 750 {means that the true average lifetime is same as what is advertised}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_1 : \mu < 750 {means that the true average lifetime is smaller than what is advertised}

Now, the test statistics is given by;

       T.S. = \frac{Xbar-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } } ~ t_n_-_1

where, X bar = sample mean = 738.44 hours

               s  = sample standard deviation = 38.2 hours

               n = sample size = 50

So, test statistics = \frac{738.44-750}{\frac{38.2}{\sqrt{50} } } ~ t_4_9

                            = -2.14

(a) Now, at 5% significance level, t table gives critical value of -1.6768 at 49 degree of freedom. Since our test statistics is less than the critical value of t, so which means our test statistics will lie in the rejection region and we have sufficient evidence to reject null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the true average lifetime is smaller than what is advertised and so consumer will not purchase the light bulbs.

(b) Now, at 1% significance level, t table gives critical value of -2.405 at 49 degree of freedom. Since our test statistics is higher than the critical value of t, so which means our test statistics will not lie in the rejection region and we have insufficient evidence to reject null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the true average lifetime is same as what it has been advertised and so consumer will purchase the light bulbs.

Why can you rewrite 4.7 as 4.70
N76 [4]
Because 4.7 is the "abbreviation" for 4.70 also 4.7 is the simplified version of 4.70 kind of like a fraction you 4 70/100 simplified is 4 7/10 or 4.7.

Write this expression so that its denominator, if any, is a positive integer.<br> 2/(3+sqrt(7))
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

The Answer is 3 - sqrt7

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 + sqrt7   the starting equation

You multiply it by the conjugate which is 3 - sqrt7

= 2(3 - sqrt7) / (3 + sqrt7) (3 - sqrt7)  the equation after you multiply by 3 - sqrt7

(3 + sqrt7) (3 - sqrt7) = 2

= 2(3 - sqrt7) / 2    the equation after you simplify (3 + sqrt7) (3 - sqrt7)

Divide out the 2's

= 3 - sqrt7/1    the equation after you divide out the 2's

= 3 - sqrt7  is THE ANSWER
