Answer:

a) 8%

b) 0,8%

c) 0,1333%

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate percentage uncertainty, you need to take the lowest possible value you can get (4,8s using a) as an example) and calculate the percentage of that.

(4,8/5)*100= 4%

This however is not the end, because there is the possibility of getting 5,2s as an answer. Hence the answer of 4% needs to be doubled.

Therefore, the answer for a) is (4%*2)= 8%

The same principle can be applied to figure out the answers for b) and c). In c), remember to convert 5 minutes to 300 seconds to avoid confusion between units of time.

Answer:

A number line with an open circle on 2, a closed circle on 6, and shading in between

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

3x+1 > 7 → inequality A

4x ≤ 24 → inequality B

Step 1

Solve inequality A

3x+1>7

3x>7-1

x>2

the solution is the interval------> (2,∞)

Step 2

Solve inequality B

4 x ≤ 24

4 ≤ 6

the solution is the interval------> (-∞,6]

Step 3

Find the solution of the compound inequality

Solution A ∩ Solution B

(2,∞) ∩ (-∞,6]=(2,6]

therefore

The answer is A number line with an open circle on 2, a closed circle on 6, and shading in between
