Answer: -7.408%

Explanation: The formula for percent error is:
(experimental - theoretical) / theoretical * 100. The experimental value is 50, or your guess. The theoretical value is 54, or the actual value. The theoretical value is the value it should be.

(50-54)/54 = -.074 * 100 = -7.408%

slega [8]

Answer:

A. 8 complete hotdogs were made.

B. The wiener.

C. The bun.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 complete hotdog = 1 wiener + 1 bun

You have, 3*10 bun and 8 wiener

= 30 bun and 8 wiener

A. Since, we have 30 bun and 8 wiener and for 1 complete hotdog = 1 wiener + 1 bun

Therefore, 8 hotdogs = 8 wiener + 8 buns

= 8 complete hotdogs are made

B.

Since 8 complete hotdogs are made, 8 wiener and 8 buns are used.

Therefore, the limiting ingredient is the wiener because it is the smallest number of ingredient and none of it was left after making the 8 hotdogs.

C. Since 8 complete hotdogs are made, 8 buns were used

So, the leftover buns = (30 - 8) buns

= 22 buns

The buns is the leftover ingredient

A slide has a diagonal of 10 feet and covers a distance of 8 feet across the ground. How many feet high is the slide at its high
Tasya [4]

So, this creates a triangle once again. If we imagine a slide, the slide itself would be the hypotenuse of the triangle, then if there's a ladder leading up to the slide, that would be the vertical length we're looking for. The feet across the ground would be the distance from the bottom of the slide to the bottom of the ladder.

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the missing side length, as this would create a right triangle. | 8^2 + b^2 = 10^2 | 64 + b^2 = 100 | b^2 = 36 | b = 6 feet | The slide is 6 feet high at its highest point.

Given that:

Day 1 = 3

Day 2 = 9

After the 2nd day, number of cells continue to triple ;
