The complete question: <span>Megan bikes 6 miles west to get from her apartment to school. After school, she bikes 8 miles north to her friend's house. How far is Megan's apartment from her friend's house, measured in a straight line?

So,Megan's apartment, the school, and Megan's friend's house form a right triangle with legs 6 miles and 8 miles as you can see in the attached picture; the hypotenuse of the right triangle is the straight distance is from Megan's apartment to her friend's house. To find that distance we are going to use the Pythagorean theorem:
</span>h= \sqrt{(6mi)^2+(8mi)^2}
h= \sqrt{36mi^2+64mi^2}
h= \sqrt{100mi^2}
h=10mi
<span>
We can conclude that distance between Megan's apartment and her friend's house is 10 miles.</span>

A schools principal wants to determine which type of speaker the students prefer to invite to an assembly for the entire student
frosja888 [35]
For a survey like this, you want to take a random sample. It would be a good idea to use an alphabetical list of the students. Then, you could randomly select students from the list.

The principal would want to avoid surveying all the same type of students. For example, don't just ask the athletes.

White raven [17]

Answer:

a. 1.0833

Absolute Error = 0.416667

Relative Error = 1.250002

b. 0.0011070

Absolute Error = 0.0011070

Relative Error = 0.003321

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

1/3 = 0.333333

3/4 = 0.75

100/301 = 0.332226

a.

1/3 + 3/4

= 0.333333 + 0.75

= 1.083333

= 1.0833 ------ Approximated to 5 significant digits

Absolute Error = |Real Value - Estimated Value|

Relative Error = Absolute Error/Real Value

Assume 1/3 to be the real value and 3/4 to be the estimated value

Absolute Error = |0.333333 - 0.75|

Absolute Error = |-0.416667|

Absolute Error = 0.416667

Relative Error = 0.416667/0.333333

Relative Error = 1.250002

b.

1/3 - 100/301

= 0.333333 - 0.332226

= 0.001107

= 0.0011070 ----- Approximated to 5 significant digits

Assume 1/3 to be real value and 100/301 to be estimated value

Absolute Error = 0.333333 - 0.332226

Absolute Error = 0.0011070

Relative Error = 0.0011070/0.333333

Relative Error = 0.003321

Absolute and relative errors are approximation errors and they are due to the discrepancy between an exact value and some approximation to them.

The absolute error is the magnitude of the difference between the exact value and the approximation. The relative error is the absolute error divided by the magnitude of the exact value

Heyyyyy pleasse help me please please and thank you
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

x ≈ 33.1°

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle

tan x = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} = \frac{125}{192} , then

x = tan^{-1} ( \frac{125}{192} ) ≈ 33.1° ( to the nearest tenth )
