Answer:
Jay's estimate is closer to the actual weight of the basketball
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard weight of an NBA basketball is 1.4 pounds.
Judging the accuracy of Jay's and Shawna's answer based on their percentage error when compared with the standard, we have that Jay's answer has a lower error as shown below
Error = (Standard value - Estimated value)/ Standard Value ×100
Error in Jays answer =
× 100 = 64.28 %
Error in Shawna's answer =
× 100 = 96.42%
From this, It is obvious that Jay's answer has a lower percentage error when compared to the actual value.
