Answer:

The answer is B. 14.7%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Estimated time need to complete project 17h.

Actually time needed 19\frac{1}{2}h=\frac{39}{2}h.

Difference between the time ET-AT= \frac{39}{2}- 17\\=\frac{39}{2} -\frac{34}{2}\\ =\frac{5}{2}=2.5h.

So, the percentage error is \frac{2.5}{17}\times100\\ =\frac{250}{17} \\=14.70%.

Therefore, the answer is B. 14.7%.

<u>Answer: </u>

Option (A)

Anson percent error is 12.8%

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given the approximate value of completion = 17 hours

Exact value of completion = 19.5 hours

Absolute Error = Exact – Approximation  

Absolute Error = 19.5 – 17 = 2.5

% Error =\frac{\text { Absolute Error }}{\text { Exact Value }} \times 100

% Error =\frac{2.5}{19.5} \times 100=12.8 \%

Therefore, the percent error is 12.8%

What is the end behavior for f(x)=4x^4+2x^3-13x^2-14x+24?
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

This means that f(x)→∞ as x→−∞ and f(x)→∞ as x→∞.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the leading term of the polynomial (the term in a polynomial which contains the highest power of the variable) is x4, then the degree is 4, i.e. even, and the leading coefficient is 1, i.e. positive.

This means that f(x)→∞ as x→−∞ and f(x)→∞ as x→∞.

Let V be the event that a computer contains a virus, and let W be the event that a computer contains a worm. Suppose P(V) = 0.17
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer: 0.82

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of the computer not containing neither a virus nor a worm is expressed as P(V^{C}∩W^{C}) , where P(V^{C}) is the probability that the event V doesn't happen and P(W^{C}) is the probability that the event W doesn't happen.

P(V^{C})= 1-P(V) = 1-0.17 = 0.83

P(W^{C})=1-P(W) = 1-0.05 = 0.95

Since V^{C} and W^{C} aren't mutually exclusive events, then:

P(V^{C}∪W^{C}) = P(V^{C}) + P(W^{C}) - P(V^{C}∩W^{C})

Isolating the probability that interests us:

P(V^{C}∩W^{C})= P(V^{C}) + P(W^{C}) - P(V^{C}∪W^{C})

Where P(V^{C}∪W^{C}) = 1 - 0.04 = 0.96

Finally:

P(V^{C}∩W^{C}) = 0.83 + 0.95 - 0.96 = 0.82
