A chemist is estimating the volume of a solution in a test tube. The actual volume of the solution is

1 answer:

4 0

The absolute error is:
actual - estimate = 33.2 - 35 = -2.8
that in percent can be found using a rule of three, we say that 33.2 is the 100%, and we find the % for 2.8
33.2 ml -------> 100%
2.8 ml -------> x
x =(2.8)(100)/33.2
x = 8.4
then the percent error is 8.4%

Write in slope form 2y = 24

AlekseyPX

Answer:

y = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the expression is given as;

2y = 24

We are to write in slope form';

In slope form, an equation is expressed as;

y = mx + c

where y and x are the intercept

m is the slope

c is the intercept

Now to write 2y = 24 in intercept form, we have;

2y = 24

divide both sides by 2;

y = 12

Here are my answers to the given questions above:
Part 1. Here is my example of a real life scenario that describes what is happening. Let us say, I have 2 cookies and the bottle of milk costs 11 dollars, and 3 cookies and 4 bottles of milk cost 24 dollars.
Part 2.
y=11-2x
3x+4(11-2x)=24
3x+44-8x=24
-5x=-20
x=4
y=11-8
y=3
Therefore, each cookie costs 4 dollars, and a bottle of milk costs 3 dollars.
Hope this answer helps. Let me know if you need more help next time.

The slope of y = 3x - 4 on the interval [2, 5] is 3 and the slope of y = 2x^2-4x - 2 on the interval [2, 5] is 10

<h3>How to determine the slope?</h3>

The interval is given as:

x = 2 to x = 5

The slope is calculated as:

$m = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2-x_1}$
