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%

<span>Equivalent ratios are ratios that name the same comparison. Meanwhile, equivalent fractions </span><span>are fractions that name the same amount or part. Equivalent ratios and equivalent fractions are similar in that the two quantities refer to ratios and fractions that ultimately have the same value but are expressed in a different way.

The volume of a shampoo filled into a container is uniformly distributed between 370 and 385 milliliters. (a) What are the mean
Olenka [21]

Answer:

(a) mean = 377.5ml. standard deviation = 4.33

(b) 0.333

(c) 384.25 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)The mean:

\mu = \frac{385 + 370}{2} = 377.5 ml

The standard deviation:

\sigma = \frac{385 - 370}{\sqrt{12}} = 4.33

(b)

P(x < 375) = \frac{375 - 370}{385 - 370} = \frac{1}{3} \approx 0.333

(c)P(x > m) = 0.95

\frac{m - 370}{385 - 370} = 0.95

m - 370 = 14.25

m = 384.25ml

So the volumn of shampoo should be 384.25ml to exceed 95% of containers.

Solve the triangle.
vova2212 [387]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  b = 71 m

  A = 83°

  C = 29°

Step-by-step explanation:

Many calculators can solve triangles. Apps are available for phone and tablet, or on the internet, like the one used here. In general, it takes less time to use one of these than to type your question into Brainly.

Given two sides and the angle between them, the Law of Cosines is the appropriate relation to use for finding the third side.

  b = √(a² +c² -2ac·cos(B))

  b = √(76² +37² -2·76·37·cos(67.75°)) ≈ √5015.48

  b ≈ 70.82005 ≈ 71 . . . meters

__

One a side and its opposite angle are known, the remaining angles are found using the Law of Sines.

  sin(A)/a = sin(B)/b

  A = arcsin(a·sin(B)/b) = arcsin(76·sin(67.75°)/70.82005) ≈ 83.33°

  A ≈ 83°

  C = arcsin(37·sin(67.75°)/70.82005) ≈ 28.92°

  C ≈ 29°

Or, you can find the remaining angle from 180° -68° -83°  = 29°.

Terri is rewriting 7 to the 13th power in expanded form. How many factors should she use in her expression?
Pachacha [2.7K]
13


Because the exponent is really just how many factors you have.
For example 2 to the power 5 would have 5 factors in expanded form.
