Answer:
4.0503
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>The absolute error is 6</h3><h3>The percent error is 16.22 %</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
Actual volume of his bathtub is 37 gal
Estimate is 31 gal
<em><u>Find the absolute error</u></em>
Absolute Error = | Measured Value - Actual Value |
Absolute Error = | 31 - 37 |
Absolute Error = 6
<em><u>Find the percent error</u></em>

Substituting we get,

Negative sign means percent decrease
Thus percent error is 16.22 %
Let:
Philadelphia be point a
Pittsburgh be point b
Distance traveled by Michelle be x
Distance traveled by Rich be 305 x
The general formula is:
distance = velocity (time)
substituting the values:
michelle: X = 65(t)
rich: 305 - X = 70 t
substituting both equations gives:
X = 146.562 miles
t = 2.26 hours or 2 hours and 15 mins
Answer: c = 1.59 * a
Step-by-step explanation:
You got the answer correct.
