Precision is a description of random errors, a measure of statistical variability. Accuracy has 2 different definitions but the more common of the 2 is accuracy is systematic errors or errors that you control

Precision is more like consistency. Take a rifle range for example. Sure, all the shots may be off centered, but if they're tightly grouped together, it shows that the shooter had precision in their shooting. Accuracy is how close to spot on the attempts or shots generally are. They would end up more towards the center, but a little more spread out.

Find the value of n for which the vectors a⃗ =(3,2)a→=(3,2) and b⃗ =(9,n)b→=(9,n) are collinear.​
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

For n=6, the given vectors will be collinear.

Step-by-step explanation:

Collinear vectors are the vectors which lie on the same line or parallel lines. In order to find if two vectors are collinear, their ratio is found. If the ratio is same for all unit vectors then the vectors are collinear.

Given

a = (a_1, a_2) = (3,2)\\b = (b_1, b_2) = (9,n)

The ratio of first unit vectors is:

\frac{a_1}{b_1} = \frac{3}{9} = \frac{1}{3}

In order for the vectors to be collinear the other ratio should also be 1/3

\frac{a_2}{b_2} = \frac{1}{3}

Writing it mathematically

\frac{2}{n} = \frac{1}{3}\\2*3 = n\\n = 6

Hence,

For n=6, the given vectors will be collinear.

Answer:

x = -10

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

{x}^{2}  + 5x - 50 = 0 \\ (x + 10)(x - 5) = 0 \\  \\ x =  - 10 \\ x = 5

(2) The equation c = 50 + 35m shows the amount c that Dina paid for
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

C, D are true

Step-by-step explanation:

Dina's costs:

Dina paid according to the equation c = 50 + 35m.

When shew joined, the number of the month was 0.

Using 0 for m, we get

c = 50 + 35 * 0

c = 50 + 0

c = 50

Dina paid $50 to join. The since m, the number of months, is being multiplied by 35, she pays $35 per month.

<em>Dina: $50 to join + $35 per month.</em>

Judy's costs:

Judy paid $80 for month 0. That means she paid $80 to join.

In month 1, she had paid a total of $105. Subtract the amount paid at joining, $105 - $80 = $25, and you see that Judy paid $25 per month.

<em>Judy: $80 to join + $25 per month</em>

Now we look at the statements.

A Dina paid a higher amount to join the health club. False. Dina paid $50 which is less than the $80 that Judy paid.

B Judy pays more per month to be a member. False. Judy pays $25 per month which is less than the $35 per month that Dina pays.

C After 1 month, Judy has paid more than Dina. After 1 month, Judy paid $105. After 1 month, Dina paid c = 50 + 35m = 50 + 35 * 1 = 50 + 35 = 85. True. After 1 month, Judy paid $105, which is more than the $85 Dina paid for 1 month.

D After 4 months, Dina has paid more than Judy.

After 4 months, Dina paid c = 50 + 35m = 50 + 35 * 4 = 50 + 140 = 190. After 4 months, Judy paid $25 more than she paid after 3 months. $155 + $25 = $180. After 4 months, Dina paid $190 which is more than the $180 Judy paid. True.
