Answer:

Percent of error of Logan's Estimate is 12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Actual Volume of sample =48 mL

Estimated Volume of sample = 42 mL

We need to find the percent errors of Logan estimate.

To calculate percent of error below are the steps.

Step 1: Subtract the Actual value from the estimated value.

Step 2: Take the absolute value of step 1

Step 3: Divide that answer by the Actual value.

Step 4: Multiply that answer by 100 and add the % symbol to express the answer as a percentage.

Now Substituting the values we get;

Step 1: To Subtract Actual Volume with Estimated Volume

Estimated Volume of sample - Actual Volume of sample = 42 - 48 = -6 mL

Step 2: Find Absolute value we get;

|-6| = 6

Step 3 : Divide that answer by the Actual volume.

\frac{6}{48}=0.125

Step 4: Multiply that answer by 100 and add the % symbol to express the answer as a percentage.

0.125\times 100 = 12.5\%

Hence Percent of error of Logan's Estimate is 12.5%

Trava [24]

Answer:

a=22,\\b=31,\\c=13

Step-by-step explanation:

When choosing equations to write, make sure you choose a pair that allow you to isolate a variable and solve for it.

Sample solution:

a+25+28=16+25+34,\\\\a+28=16+34,\\a+28=50,\\a=\boxed{22}

16+b+28=16+25+34,\\b+44=75,\\b=\boxed{31}

34+c+28=16+25+34,\\c+28=41,\\c=\boxed{13}
