<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>

Percent\ error = \frac{\text{estimate - actual}}{actual} \times 100

Substituting we get,

percent\ error = \frac{31-37}{37} \times 100\\\\percent\ error = \frac{-6}{37} \times 100\\\\percent\ error = -16.22

Negative sign means percent decrease

Thus percent error is 16.22 %

9) Gabe has a 40¢-off coupon for any kind of popcorn. He can choose
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

Per ounce better buy is <em>Happy popcorn</em>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Happy popcorn price for 16 ounces = $1.39

Popper popcorn price for 34 ounces = $2.79

Discount coupon present with Gabe = 40 ¢ = $0.40

To find:

Which brand is the better buy per ounce?

Solution:

First of all, let us calculate the price that Gabe has to pay after the discount coupon being applied.

Price for 16 ounces of Happy popcorn after discount = $1.29 - $0.40 = $0.99

Price for 1 ounce of Happy popcorn after discount = \frac{\$0.99}{16} = $0.062

Price for 34 ounces of Popper popcorn after discount = $2.79 - $0.40 = $2.39

Price for 1 ounce of Popper popcorn after discount = \frac{\$2.39}{34} = $0.070

Clearly, per ounce price of Happy popcorn is lesser than that of Popper popcorn.

Therefore per ounce better buy is <em>Happy popcorn</em>.

If the Zeros are 2 and 8 what's the axis of symmetry?
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x=2,x-2=0

x=8

x-8=0

y=(x-2)(x-8)=x²-2x-8x+16=x²-10x+16

=x²-10x+25-25+16

=x²-10x+25-9

y=(x-5)²+9

axis of symmetry is x-5=0 or x=5
