y = k/x, where k is the variation constant.

We need to find k.

5 = k/15...This equation leads to the correct value of k (our variation constant).

5(15) = (k/15)(15)

75 = k

Done!

melomori [17]

a linear equation is an equation that may be put in the form where are the variables, and are the coefficients, which are often real numbers. The coefficients may be considered as parameters of the equation, and may be arbitrary expressions, provided they do not contain any of the variables.

Gabby assumed she could sell 45 boxes of cookies by Friday, but she only sold 26 boxes. What was Gabby's percent error?

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

73.07%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Actual value of sold cookies = 26

Assumed value of sold cookies = 45

We need to find Gabby's percent error. The percentage error in a value is given by :

Error = ](Assumed value - Actual value)/Actual value]× 100

So,

$\%=\dfrac{45-26}{26}\times 100\\\\=73.07\%$

So, Gabby's percent error is equal to 73.07%.
