Answer:

6.25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent error is calculated by taking the difference of measured value and correct value divided by correct value and multiplied by 100%.

Mathematically,

Percent error = (correct value - measured value)/correct value  * 100%

_________________________________________________

in the problem given

measured value = 75 degrees Celsius

correct value = 80 degrees Celsius ( as given in reference book)

thus,

Percent error = (80 - 75)/80 * 100%

Percent error = (5/80 )* 100% = 6.25%

Percent error calculated by him is  6.25%.

4 is the hundredths place, not hundreds because hundredths is a fraction of a whole. So its 4 over the value of its place which is 1 hundredths and 4 goes into itself 1 and 4 goes into 100,  25 times.

Which is the graph of g(x)?
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

option d

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given with three function

Plug in x=-2 in first function

f(x)= 3 so f(-2) = 3

Plug in x=-2 in second function

f(x) = -\frac{x}{2} +2

f(-2) = -\frac{-2}{2} +2=3

Plug in x=2 in second function

f(x) = -\frac{x}{2} +2

f(-2) = -\frac{2}{2} +2=1

Plug in x=2 in third function

f(x)= 2x-3

f(2)= 2(2) -3 = 1

We can see that f(-2)=3 is same for first and second function

also f(2) = 1 is same for second and third functions

So the graph is continuous

option D satisfies the points
