Answer:
The error is the exponent in the answer should be 11.
Step-by-step explanation:
When you move the decimal place one spot as they do in the final step to move it from a base 10 to a base 1, we have to add a exponent on. Therefore, it should go from 10 to 11.
If you have the profit formula which is profit (x1, x2) = 110x1 + 150x2, then by substitution of the given point (x1, x2) = (0, 30), you can find the profit at the corner point profit (0.30 ) = 110 (0) + 150 (30) = 4500.Therefore the profit will be $ 4500
Problem 1
The error is 2 inches since her estimate is 2 inches off the true value.
We can think of it like this
4 feet = 4*12 = 48 inches
4 feet, 2 inches = 4 ft + 2 in = 48 in + 2 in = 50 inches
So she guesses he is 48 inches, but he's really 50 inches, so 50-48 = 2 inches is her error.
==================================================
Problem 2
Divide the error (2 inches) over the actual height (50 inches) to get
2/50 = 4/100 = 4%
The percentage error is 4%
This means she is 4% off the target.
Note how 4% of 50 = 0.04*50 = 2 which was the error we found back in problem 1.
There are 32 nickels and 112 dimes. Hope this helps.
