What is the percent error from 8 to 17

Mathematics

Answer: 53%

Step-by-step explanation: First this problem we will use the "Percent Error" equation to solve.

difference = percent error x actual

First, subtract the values 8 - 17, which equals -9, but find the absolute value of -9, which is 9. Lets plug in 9 to the equation. 17 belongs in the "actual category" since 8 was to 17.

9 = percent error x 17

9/17 = percent error

About 0.53 = percent error

Now, to get your percent, multiply 0.53 x 100, which equals 53.

So the percent error from 8 to 17 is 53%

5. A group of people were asked if they believed in space creatures. 182 responded "Yes" and 220 responded No" Find the probabil
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

\frac{110}{201}, 0.55, 55%

Explanation:

So first you have to find the total number of people.

182 + 220 = 402

Then we put that number in a fraction with the number of people who do not believe in the creatures.

\frac{220}{402}\\55

Then we simplify it.

\frac{220}{402}=\frac{110}{201}\\

That is our fraction answer. In order to change it into a percent we divide the numerator by the denominator.

\frac{110}{201}=0.54726368159\\

Then we round to the nearest hundredth (or what ever it says).

0.55

And that is our decimal. Now to change that into a percent we multiply by 100, or move the decimal to spaces to the right.

55%

And that is our percent.

Graph f(x)=2x+1 and g(x)=−x+7 on the same coordinate plane.
Debora [2.8K]
For this case what you must do is to graph both lines. (See attached graph) and see where both are cut.
 We note that both lines are cut at the point (2,5)
 Therefore the solution for f (x) = g (x) is x = 2
