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%

Nola was selling tickets at the high school dance. At the end of the evening she picked up the cash box and noticed a dollar lyi
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

The $1 belongs to the cash box

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for complete question

Required

Determine if the $1 belongs to the cash box or not

Represent singles with s and couples with c.

From the attachment, we have:

s + c = 47 --- total attendance

5s + 4c =200 --- ticket sold

Solve for s and c.

Make s the subject in (1)

s = 47-c

Substitute 47 - c for s in (2)

5(47 - c) + 4c = 200

Open bracket

235 - 5c + 4c = 200

235 - c = 200

c = 235 - 200

c = 35

This means that the total individual which makes up the couples are 35. This is not possible because couples are in 2's and the total should be an even number.

<em>So, we can conclude that the $1 belongs to the cash box</em>
