If two numbers on a graph differ by 1, without scale, the amount of inequality could vary infinitely. If the scale is 2, a difference of 1 is half the scale amount, but if the scale is 1000, the difference may be negligible. It is the scale that shows the degree to which the entries differ.

Logan measured a line to be 7.4 inches long. If the actual length of the line is 7.7 inches, then what was the percent error of

Tanzania [10]

Answer:

4.0541

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't know if this is correct but this is what I got.

You would take the error and divide it by the theoretical value and then multiply that by 100.

7.7 - 7.4 = 0.3

0.3 ÷ 7.4 = 0.04054054

0.04054054 x 100 = 4.05405405 (simplify) = 4.0541%

Hope I helped in any way

Two ships leave the same port at the same time. Two hours later ship A has traveled 12 miles and ship B has traveled 8 miles.

Answer:

the angle between their paths is 100.8°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information, you can construct a triangle, just like the one in the figure.

We will use the Cosine Rule which is:

c² = b² + a² - 2 b c cos(θ)

where

c = 16 miles
b = 8 miles
a = 12 miles

Therefore,

2 b c cos(θ) = b² + a² - c²

cos(θ) = (b² + a² - c²) / 2 b c

θ = cos⁻¹( (b² + a² - c²) / (2 b c) )

θ = cos⁻¹( (8² + 12² - 16²) / 2(8)(16) )

θ = 100.8°

Therefore, the angle between their paths is 100.8°
