The absolute error is 4 cu. in. and the relative error is 10%.

To find the absolute error, subtract the actual value from the estimate:
36 - 40 = -4

With absolute error, we ignore negative signs, so the absolute error is 4 cu. in.

To find the relative/percent error, divide the absolute error by the actual value:
4/40 = 0.1
Converting this to a percent, 0.1(100) = 10%

Determinewhether the two lines areparallel, perpendicular, neither.X-3=6Y = 3x +4
Brums [2.3K]

we have the lines

x-3=6

x=6+3

x=9

this is a vertical line (parallel to the y-axis)

The slope is undefined

and

y=3x+4

The slope is m=3

Compare their slopes

1) Their slopes are not equal -----> are not parallel lines

2) Their slopes are not negative reciprocal -----> are not perpendicular lines

therefore

<h2>The answer is neither</h2>

Mindy has 4 red lollipops, 2 green, and 3 blue lollipops to choose from. What is the complement of her choosing a blue lollipop?
Masteriza [31]

Answer: I’m not sure what compliment is but she would have to pick 7 to guarantee that she gets at least 1 blue lollipop

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 9 in total. 6 not blue. There are 3 blue. Assuming she gets terrible luck, she would have to take all of the non blue first which is 6. Then she would take another one to make sure she gets at least 1 blue lollipop
