Answer: 12.83%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Sam measured the height of a window frame as 5.23 feet, but the actual height was 6 feet.

i.e. Estimated height = 5.23 feet

Actual height = 6 feet

Then, the percentage of error in Sam's measurement will be :-

\%\text{Error}=\dfrac{|\text{Estimated height-Actual height}|}{\text{Actual height}}\times100\\\\=\dfrac{|5.23-6|}{6}\times100\\\\ =\dfrac{0.77}{6}\times100\\\\=12.8333333333\approx12.83\%

Hence, the percentage of error in Sam's measurement= 12.83%

The ratio of Michaels's points on an English test to Paloma's points on the same test is 12:11. The ratio of Michaels's points o
diamong [38]

The difference between Palomas and Antons' points on the English test is of 14 points.

<h3>What is Ratio ?</h3>

When two numbers can be written in the form as p:q , they are said to be in Ratio.

It is given that

The ratio of Michaels point to Paloma point is 12 :11

The ratio of Michaels point to Anton's Point is 4:3

Let Paloma's point be x

then Michaels point will be 12x/11

and Anton's points will be

(12x/11 ) / Anton's points = 4 /3

Anton's points = 9x/11

It is given that the sum of the points of the three students is 224

so

x + (12x/11)+ (9x/11) = 224

32x /11 = 224

x = 77

Paloma's points = 77

Anton's Points = 9x/11 = 63

The difference between Palomas and Antons' points on the English test

=77 -63

= 14 points.

50 POINTS! BRAINLIEST!!!

The 1st choice (x - 9, y - 3) is the correct answer.

Take any of the corresponding coordinate points to find the rule that represents the translation:

D —> D’

(3, 5) —> (-6, 2)

(3 - 9, 5 - 3) = (-6, 2)

Counting the units from graph also shows this translation rule, seeing that hexagon DEFGHI moved 9 units to the left and 3 units down.

Hope this helps :)

8, 16, 24, 32, 40

5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40

2/8 times 5= 10/40

1/5 times 8= 8/40

10/40 plus 8/40= 18/40

How do you factor 5 out of 5x+40
VARVARA [1.3K]

So, 5x/5= 1x

And, 40/5= 8

Your answer is now x+8 when factored
