Answer:

The correct option is;

Mike's measurement are more precise and more accurate

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The mass of the measured bottle = 16-ounce

The record of the measurements made by Mike are;

16.4 oz

15.2 oz

15.8 oz

The record of the measurements made by Teegan are;

16.34 oz

16.59 oz

15.13 oz

From the two measurements, we have;

The precision of a measurement depends on how close the values of the measurement are to one another, therefore, we have;

For Mike, the precision is given as follows

16.4 - 15.2 = 1.2

16.4 - 15.8 = 0.6

15.8 - 15.2 = 0.6

Total difference = 1.2 + 0.6 + 0.6 = 2.4

For Teegan , the precision is given as follows

16.59 - 16.34 = 0.25

16.59 - 15.13 = 1.46

16.34 - 15.13 = 1.21

Total difference = 0.25 + 1.46 + 1.21 = 2.92

Therefore, Mike's measurements are more precise than Teegan's measurements

The accuracy of the measurement is the amount of closeness the measurements are to a given value

In the question, the given value is 16-ounces of the volume of the bottle

Therefore, by the mean absolute deviation from the 16-ounce of the bottle, we have;

For Mike;

Mean \ absolute  \ deviation = \dfrac{\left | 16.4 - 16 \right | + \left | 15.2 - 16 \right | + \left | 15.8 - 16 \right | }{3} = 0.533

For Teegan, we have;

Mean \ absolute  \ deviation = \dfrac{\left | 16.34 - 16 \right | + \left | 16.59 - 16 \right | + \left | 15.13 - 16 \right | }{3} = 0.6

Therefore, Mike's measurement is more accurate than Teegan's measurement.

Which gives;

Mike's measurement are more precise and more accurate.

The missing side of the triangles are 5, 16.92, 7 and 5 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Use the Pythagoras Theorem to find the missing sides.

a² + b² = c²

In the first triangle, a = 3, b = 4.

c² = 3² + 4² = 9 + 16 = 25

⇒ c = 5

∴ Missing side is 5

In the second triangle, a = 15, b = 8

c² = 15² + 8² = 225 + 64 = 289

⇒ c = 16.92

Missing side is 16.92

In the third triangle, b = 24, c = 25

a² = c² - b²

a² = 25² - 24² = 625 - 576 = 49

⇒ a = 7

Missing side is 7

In the fourth triangle, a = 12, c = 13

b² = c² - a²

b² = 13² - 12² = 169 - 144 = 25

⇒ b = 5

Missing side is 5
