Answer:

The percent error of the measurement, to the nearest tenth of a percent is 21.0\%

Step-by-step explanation:

Estimated length of a line = 12.4 inches

Actual length of the line = 15.7 inches

Error = 15.7 - 12.4 = 3.3 inches

Percent error of the measurement =\frac{3.3}{15.7}(100)=21.02 ≈ 21.0

So, the percent error of the measurement, to the nearest tenth of a percent is 21.0\%

I need someone to explain how to solve this please!
Paladinen [302]

(x+3)/2x+5 + (3x-5)/(3x+5)

LCM = ( 2x+5)( 3x+5)

[( x+3)( 3x+5) + ( 3x -5)( 2x+5)]/( 2x+5)( 3x+5)

= (3x^2 + 5x +9 x +15 + 6x^2 + 15x -10x -25)/( 2x+5)( 3x+5)

=( 9 x^2 + 19x -10)/( 2x +5)(3x+5)
