Answer:
<em>The percent error of the cyclist's estimate is 5.63%</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Percentages</u>
The cyclist estimates he will bike 80 miles this week, but he really bikes 75.5 miles.
The error of his estimate in miles can be calculated as the difference between his estimate and the real outcome:
Error = 80 miles - 75.5 miles = 4.5 miles
To calculate the error as a percent, we divide that quantity by the original estimate and multiply by 100%:
Error% = 4.5 / 80 * 100 = 5.625%
Rounding to the nearest hundredth:
The percent error of the cyclist's estimate is 5.63%

Answer:
60 minutes or 1 hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Set x as the amount of time she spends riding the bus
75 = time on bus + time on train
She spends 4 times as long on the train as on the bus so the time she spends on the train is 4x
75 = x + 4x
75 = 5x
x = 15 minutes on the bus
Since she spends 4 times as long on the train, we do 4 x 15 and we get 60 minutes which is 1 hour
10% of 35= 3.5
35+3.5= $38.5 per hr (new hourly wage)
$38.5*6= $231
Final answer: $231
