Answer:

(a) 36.36%

(b) 0.36%

(c) 0.06%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the time intervals measured with a stopwatch have an uncertainty of about 0.2 s.

We want to know what is the percent uncertainty of a hand-timed measurement of:

(a) 5.5 s

Percentage = (0.2/5.5) × 100

≈ 36.36%

(b) 55 s

Percentage = (0.2/55)×100

≈ 0.36%

(c) 5.5 min

5.5 min = 5.5 × 60 s

= 330 s

Percentage = (0.2/330)×100

≈ 0.06%

Ann [662]

Answer:

Choice C

Step-by-step explanation:

Therefore, $200+ $173x >$1930

It says Sandeep has twice as much as Sonia. Thus, let Sandeep's amount be 2x and Sonia's amount be x.

Now, together they have 150.

Thus, the equation;

x+2x=150

Now let's solve the equation;

3x=150

x=150/3

x=50

Thus, Sonia has 50
