It would take them 17 hours if they worked together, but it could be 1 hour too.
This is a true statement. An example of using this formula is attached
Answer:
BCD is the outer angle of triangle ABC
=> BCD = ABC + BAC
<=> 150⁰ = ABC + 118⁰
=> ABC = 150⁰ - 118⁰
<=> ABC = 32⁰
This is how you set up a percent of error proportion:
<u>Amount of error</u> <u>x(Unknown percent)</u>
Actual value = 100(Percents are out of hundreds)
So if you fill it in, it becomes <u>4</u> <u>x
</u> 80 =100
Cross multiply, 400= 80x.
Solve.
x=5 so percent error is 5%<u>
</u>
The correct answer would be x = 4
