Upon completion of an experiment a student realizes that the technique used for measuring the length and width of a rectangle ha
eduard

Answer:

809.4cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Systematic error = 3.8cm (The measured length is always more than the actual length.)

Most probable dimension :

Width = 85.7 cm

Length = 123.5 cm

Hence most probable area of Rectangle :

Area = Length × Width

Area = 85.7cm × 123.5cm = 10583.95 cm²

Dimension due to Systematic error :

Length = (85.7cm + 3.8cm) = 89.5cm

Width = (123.5cm + 3.8cm) = 127.3cm

Area = Length × width

Area = ( 89.5cm × 127.3) = 11393.35cm²

Systematic error of the area :

value of area with Systematic error - Probable value of area :

11393.35cm² - 10583.95 cm² = 809.4cm²

Daniel's tennis team made $582.85 from running the concession stand at a basketball game. The food and drinks cost the team $64.
Flura [38]

Let x be the number of members in Daniel's tennis team.

The amount made = $582.85

Expenses (food and drinks) = $64

Balance remaining for sharing = 582.85 - 64 = $518.85

Amount received by each player = (amount made - Expenses) / Number of members = 518.85/x

Given that:

= −36/−8

"-" signs will be cancelled out with each other so

= 36/8

By reducing to lowest term
