Answer:

.5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use maximum possible error to calculate absolute error

Maximum possible error of is half the unit of measure

This means it is ±0.5 meters

In this case, you find the place value the measurement 10 meters is rounded to .This measurement was measured to the nearest meter, thus the measuring unit is 1 meter.

Here you use the maximum possible error as the absolute error.

This means the measurement is 10 ± .5

50 people entered a fishing contest over 3 days to see who could catch the most fish.

tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

5,175 fish

Step-by-step explanation:

To figure out the total you have to add all the fish together.

Day 1: 750 + 300 + 250 = 1,300 fish were caught on Day 1

Day 2: 720 + 455 + 400 + 50 = 1,625 were caught on Day 2

Day 3: 2,250 were caught on Day 3

Then, add those three numbers

1,300 + 1,625 + 2,250 = 5,175

A tank's length is 3 feet longer than its width. The height is 1 foot less than the width. The volume of the tank is 160 cubic f

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

The width of the tank is <u>5 feet</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A tank's length is 3 feet longer than its width.

The height is 1 foot less than the width.

The volume of the tank is 160 cubic feet.

Now, to find the width of the tank.

Let the width of the tank be $x.$

So, length is $x+3.$

And, height is $x-1.$

The volume of tank = 160 cubic feet.

Now, to get the width we put formula:

Volume = length × width × height.

$160=(x+3)\times x\times (x-1)$

$160 =x(x^2-x+3x-3)$

$160=x(x^2+2x-3)$

$160=x^3+2x^2-3x$

<em>Subtracting both sides by 160 we get</em>:

$0=x^3+2x^2-3x-160$

$x^3+2x^2-3x-160=0$

Now, on solving the equation we get:

$x=5.$

The width = 5 feet.

Therefore, the width of the tank is 5 feet.
