Sameera predicted that she would sell 38 blankets, but she actually sold 28 blankets. Which expression would find the percent er
antoniya [11.8K]

Solution: We are given:

Predicted Sales by Sameera =38

Actual Sales by Sameera =28

Now to find the Percent error, we have to use the below formula:

Percent-Error= \frac{|Predicted-value - Actual-value|}{Actual-value} \times 100 \%

                       =\frac{|38-28|}{28} \times 100 \%

                       =\frac{10}{28}\times 100 \%

                       =35.71 \%

Therefore, the percent error is 35.71 \%

The heights of women aged 20 to 29 are approximately normal with mean 64 inches and standard deviation 2.7 inches. Men the same
ohaa [14]

Answer:

z=(x-mu)/o

Step-by-step explanation:

X - Heights of women aged 20 to 29: X is N(64, 2.7)

Y - Heights of men aged 20 to 29: X is N(69.3, 2.8)

a) X=6'=72"

b) Y = 72"

c) 72' women can be taken as very tall but men moderately taller than average

d) Y<5'5" =65"

e) X>73"

Z>

Almost 0% can be taken

Y=-0.05x^2+4.5x-6.5 pls help to solve
givi [52]
Following with the extra hint that x = 82.03 m

There are 2 ways to approach the question, but although I prefer to group up x first before plugging value, having that -0.05x^2 to group up is too annoying:

Plug x = 82.03

=> Y = -0.05*(82.03^2) + 4.5*82.03 - 6.5
         = -336.446045 + 369.135 - 6.5
         = 26.188955 m

Please take the time and understand the answer instead of just looking at the final result.

Also I know the number is very long, but that's the question's fault. <span>¯\_(ツ)_/¯</span>

Degger [83]

3x+y

x

​

 

=−3

=−y+3

​

The second equation is solved for xxx, so we can substitute the expression -y+3−y+3minus, y, plus, 3 in for xxx in the first equation:

\begin{aligned} 3\blueD{x}+y &= -3\\\\ 3(\blueD{-y+3})+y&=-3\\\\ -3y+9+y&=-3\\\\ -2y&=-12\\\\ y&=6 \end{aligned}

3x+y

3(−y+3)+y

−3y+9+y

−2y

y

​

 

=−3

=−3

=−3

=−12

=6

​

Plugging this value back into one of our original equations, say x = -y +3x=−y+3x, equals, minus, y, plus, 3, we solve for the other variable:

\begin{aligned} x &= -\blueD{y} +3\\\\ x&=-(\blueD{6})+3\\\\ x&=-3 \end{aligned}

x

x

x

​

 

=−y+3

=−(6)+3

=−3

​

The solution to the system of equations is x=-3x=−3x, equals, minus, 3, y=6y=6y, equals, 6.

We can check our work by plugging these numbers back into the original equations. Let's try 3x+y = -33x+y=−33, x, plus, y, equals, minus, 3.

\begin{aligned} 3x+y &= -3\\\\ 3(-3)+6&\stackrel ?=-3\\\\ -9+6&\stackrel ?=-3\\\\ -3&=-3 \end{aligned}

3x+y

3(−3)+6

−9+6

​

=−3

​

Yes, our solution checks out.

Example 2

We're asked to solve this system of equations:

\begin{aligned} 7x+10y &= 36\\\\ -2x+y&=9 \end{aligned}

7x+10y

−2x+y

​

 

=36

=9

​

In order to use the substitution method, we'll need to solve for either xxx or yyy in one of the equations. Let's solve for yyy in the second equation:

\begin{aligned} -2x+y&=9 \\\\ y&=2x+9 \end{aligned}

−2x+y

y

​

 

=9

=2x+9

​

Now we can substitute the expression 2x+92x+92, x, plus, 9 in for yyy in the first equation of our system:

\begin{aligned} 7x+10\blueD{y} &= 36\\\\ 7x+10\blueD{(2x+9)}&=36\\\\ 7x+20x+90&=36\\\\ 27x+90&=36\\\\ 3x+10&=4\\\\ 3x&=-6\\\\ x&=-2 \end{aligned}

7x+10y

7x+10(2x+9)

7x+20x+90

27x+90

3x+10

3x

x

​

 

=36

=36

=36

=36

=4

=−6

=−2

​

Plugging this value back into one of our original equations, say y=2x+9y=2x+9y, equals, 2, x, plus, 9, we solve for the other variable:

\begin{aligned} y&=2\blueD{x}+9\\\\ y&=2\blueD{(-2)}+9\\\\ y&=-4+9 \\\\ y&=5 \end{aligned}

y

y

y

y

​

 

=2x+9

=2(−2)+9

=−4+9

=5

​

The solution to the system of equations is x=-2x=−2x, equals, minus, 2, y=5y=5y, equals, 5.
