Answer:

The answer is actually C

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because you do 115 - 82.50 = 32.5 then divide by 82.5 = 0.394 multiply by 100 = 39.4%. A lot of people use the theoretical number to divide instead of the actual, because people confuse the number 115 the theoretical number with the actual one. This causes people to use the number 115 to divide when you should use 82.5 to divide.

The equation to find percent error is:
percent error=(experimental-theoretical)/theoretical *100
So, (115-82.5)/82.5=0.393939*100
39.3939%, or 39.94%

Hope this helps!!

paula earned a 56% on her science test if she got 14 problems correct then how many questions were on the test
sweet-ann [11.9K]
56% = 14 questions

1% = 14 ÷ 56 = 0.25 questions

100% = 0.25 x 100 = 25 questions

Answer: 25 questions.

"Parameterize the plane through the point (−1,−3,1) with the normal vector ⟨−4,4,3⟩
Makovka662 [10]
The equation of the required plane can be obtained thus:
-4(x + 1) + 4(y + 3) + 3(z - 1) = 0
-4x - 4 + 4y + 12 + 3z - 3 = 0
4x - 4y - 3z = 5

Let x = 1, y = 2, then 4(1) - 4(2) - 3z = 5
z = (4 - 8 - 5)/3 = -9/3 = -3
Thus, point (1, 2, -3) is a point on the plane.

Let a = (a1, a2, a3) and b = (b1, b2, b3) be vectors parallel to the plane.
Then, -4a1 + 4a2 + 3a3 = 0 and -4b1 + 4b2 + 3b3 = 0
Let a1 = 2, a2 = -1, then a3 = (4(2) - 4(-1))/3 = (8 + 4)/3 = 12/3 = 4 and let b1 = -1 and b2 = 2, then b3 = (4(-1) - 4(2))/3 = (-4 - 8)/3 = -12/3 = -4
Thus a = (2, -1, 4) and b = (-1, 2, -4)

Therefore, the required parametric equation is r(s, t) = s(2, -1, 4) + t(-1, 2, -4) + (1, 2, -3) = (2s, -s, 4s) + (-t, 2t, -4t) + (1, 2, -3) = (2s - t + 1, -s + 2t + 2, 4s - 4t - 3)
