Answer:
D = .44P
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the slope of the line
m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)
Using two points
m = (22-4.4) /(50-10)
= 17.6/40
= .44 lb/ in^2 ft
We can use the point slope form of the equation
y-y1 = m(x-x1) where y=D and x=P
D-4.4 = .44 (P-10)
Distribute
D-4.4 = .44P - 4.4
Add 4.4 to each side
D -4.4+4.4 = .44P -4.4+4.4
D = .44P
2x4 is the answer to 4x-2=38
Let change 7/8 and 1/5 into decimal point so 0.88 and 0.2
0.88-0.2 =0.68
then we want 5 equal length so we divided
0.68 / 5 =0.14
You cannot find the percent error of data without knowing the true length of the rope, as percent error is essentially a comparison between what you measured and what it actually is.
