Answer  

Find out the  percent error in Annie's estimate .

To prove

Formula

Percentage\ error = \frac{error\times 100}{exact\ value}

As  error = approx value -  exact value

As given

Annie estimates that the height of a bookcase is 78.25 in.

The actual height is 75.50 in.

approx value = 78.25 in.

actual value = 75.50 in.

error = 78 .25 - 75 .50

        = 2.75

put in the formula

Percentage\ error = \frac{2.75\times 100}{75.50}

Percentage\ error = \frac{27500}{7550}

Percentage error = 3.64 % (approx)

Therefore the Percentage error be 3.64 % (approx).

y × 60 = 54 × 100

60y = 5400

Explain why the steps for solving equations are usually given as removing grouping symbols first, even though it is not necessar
finlep [7]
This is because simplifying the equation before solving it will lead you to the answer at a much faster rate. For example, in the given equation, the long way would be to distribute 2 to (x+3). Then, you transpose them and combine like terms. Until you get to x + 3 = 8. But if you simplify it first, you will see that it is straightforward. It will lead you to the answer right away which is x + 3 = 8. It saves you from the hassle of doing more algebra :)

What is this number in standard form?
Andrej [43]

Answer:

500.61

Step-by-step explanation:

5 multiplied by 100 = 500

1/10 = 0.1, So 6 multiplied by 0.1 = 0.6

1/100 = 0.01, So 1 multiplied by 1 = 0.01

500 + 0.6 + 0.01 = 500.61
