Answer:

The percent of error in the measurement is 2%

Step-by-step explanation:

The percent of error associated with a reported measurement is calculate using the formula;

percenterror=\frac{error}{measurement}*100

The error associated with a measurement is defined as half of the smallest unit of measurement used. The measurement reported was 2.5. The smallest unit of measurement for this reading is 0.1. The error is thus;

error = 0.1/2 = 0.05

The percent of error is thus;

\frac{0.05}{2.5}*100=2

The florist charges $31.75 for eight roses and five carnations. For one rose and three carnations, it cost $5.75. What is the co
Sedbober [7]

Cost for a carnation is $0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Rose = x

Carnation = y

According to given statement;

8x+5y=31.75   Eqn 1

x+3y=5.75   Eqn 2

Multiplying\ Eqn\ 2\ by\ 8\\8(x+3y=5.75)\\8x+24y=46 \ \ \ Eqn\ 3\\Subtracting\ Eqn\ 1\ from\ Eqn\ 3\\(8x+24y)-(8x+5y)=46-31.75\\8x+24y-8x-5y=14.25\\19y=14.25\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 19\\\frac{19y}{19}=\frac{14.25}{19}\\y=0.75

Cost for a carnation is $0.75
