Let the house be sold for = x

Amount paid to real estate agent = $11825

This value is 5.5% of the value of the house sold for.

\frac{5.5}{100}*x=11825

5.5x=1182500

x=215000

Hence, the house was sold for $215000

In preparing a certain ointment, a pharmacist used 28.35 g of zinc oxide instead of the 31.1 g called for. Calculate the percent
Vilka [71]

Answer: 9.70%

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the percentage error is given by :-

\%\text{ error}=\dfrac{|\text{Estimate-Actual}|}{\text{Actual}}\times100

Given : Actual mass of zinc oxide used by pharmacist = 28.35 g

Estimated mass of zinc oxide used by pharmacist =31.1 g

Now, \%\text{ error}=\dfrac{|31.1-28.35|}{28.35}\times100

i.e. \%\text{ error}=\dfrac{2.75}{28.35}\times100

i.e. \%\text{ error}=9.70017636684\approx9.70\%

Hence, the  percentage of error on the basis of the desired quantity.= 9.70%
