That question is accompanied by these answer choices:

<span>A. The scale is accurate but not precise.
B. The scale is precise but not accurate.
C. The scale is neither precise nor accurate.
D. The scale is both accurate and precise.

Then you need to distinguish between accuracy and precision.

Accuracy refers to the closeness of the measure to the real value, while precision, in this case, refers to the level of significant figures that the sacle report.

The fact that the scale reports the number with 4 significant figures means that it is very precise, but the fact that the result is not so close to the real value as the number of significan figures pretend to be, means that the scale is not accurate.

So, the answer is that the scale is precise but not accurate (the option B).

tangare [24]

Answer:

The price for a small glass of milk is $0.95, and the price for a breakfast taco is $1.15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of a taco be x and the price for a small glass of milk be y.

x + y = 2.1

2x + 3y = 5.15

Multiply the first equation by 2:

2x + 2y = 4.2

Subtract the new third equation from the second equation:

(2x + 3y) - (2x + 2y) = 5.15 - 4.2

y = 0.95

Hence, the price for a small glass of milk is $0.95.

Substitute y into the first equation.

x + 0.95 = 2.1

x = 1.15

Therefore, the price for a breakfast taco is $1.15.

Hope this helped!

Where is the solution located on a graph a system of equations?
geniusboy [140]
For a system of two variables and two equations, each equation will be a linear graph, and where the lines intersect is the solution as an ordered pair (x,y). If the lines don’t intersect (they’re parallel) so there is no unique solution.
