James estimated the total cost of groceries to be $50. The actual cost of the groceries is $65. What is the percent error? Round
Alex777 [14]

To get percent error you take actual-predicted and divide by the actual then multiply by 100 to get the percent.

65-50=15

15/60=0.25

0.25 times 100 =25%

Can someone please explain to me why and how this equates to 7.4%??????
Mumz [18]

so, you're correct, it is the Food industry, and it went down from 2.7 to 2.5, well, so it really went down 2.7 - 2.5 or 0.2.


well, if we take 2.7 to be the 100% from that row, what is 0.2 off of it in percentage format?


\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\ 2.7&100\\ 0.2&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{2.7}{0.2}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies x=\cfrac{0.2\cdot 100}{2.7}\implies x\approx\stackrel{\%}{7.4}

A.) which of these expressions is equivalent to 4 x x
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

a) The correct option is C: 4x

b) The correct option is B: 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Usually when we have a real number multiplying a variable, we do not need to write the multiplication symbol.

So instead of writing:

4×x

We can write:

4x

And this will be equivalent.

Then in this case the correct option is C.

b) We know that if we have the multiplication of A by n, this will be equivalent to add A n times.

Then if we have the sum of A, for example, 4 times, we have:

A + A + A + A

And this can be written as 4*A

In this case, we have the expression x + x.

So we are adding x two times, then this can be written as: 2*x, or, as we said earlier, this also can be written as 2x.

Then the correct option is option B.

Herbert has sold 99, 37, 86, and 73 copeirs in the last 4 months, respectivly. How many copiers will he need to sell this month
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Therefore 80 ceperies will he need to sell this month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Average: Average is the ratio of sum of all numbers to the total number present in the data.

Given that Herbert has sold 99, 37, 86 and 73 copeirs in the last 4 months.

Let he need to sell x copeirs in this month.

According to the problem,

\frac{99+37+86+73+x}{5}=75

⇒ 99+37+86+73+x= 75×5

⇒295 + x= 375

⇒x = 375 - 295

⇒ x= 80

Therefore 80 ceperies will he need to sell this month.
