Answer: 6.5%

Step-by-step explanation: 17,466 - 16,400 = 1,066 (the difference)

16,400 / 16,400 = 1 • 100 = 100

1,066 / 16,400 = 0.065 • 100 = 6.5

Answer:

6.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage error formula =

|Estimated value - Real value|/Real value × 100

From the above question,

Estimated value = 17,466

Real value = 16,400

Percentage error = |17,466 - 16,400|/16,400 × 100

= 1066/16,400 × 100

= 0.065 × 100

= 6.5%

Therefore, the percent error = 6.5%

Angel and Jayden were at track practice. The track is 2/5 kilometers around.  Angel ran 1 lap in 2 minutes.  Jayden ran 3 laps
choli [55]

Answer:

6/25 km in 1 min; or 0.24 km/min

Step-by-step explanation:

The info about Angel is not necessary.

Jayden runs 3 laps in 5 mins

Each lap is 2/5 km, so Jayden runs 3 x (2/5 km) in 5 min = 6/5 km in 5 min.

Distance = rate x time

6/5 km = rate (5 min)

We want to isolate r (rate), so divide both sides by 5 min

6/5 km ÷ 5 min = r

6/5 km (1/5 min) = r

6/25 km/min = r  (notice how the units worked out correctly to km/min)

So, Jayden runs 6/25 km in 1 min.

Ali and Tibor get paid $9 per hour. This week, Tibor made an additional $27 in overtime.
Leviafan [203]
9a + (9t+27)=x

To write it another way you could flip the numbers around:

(9t+27)+9a=x

Or flip the variable to the other side.

x=9a + (9t+27)

Any way you put the numbers as long as x is on the either side, you will get the same answer.

Hope this helps!

Max makes and sells posters. The function p(x)= -10x^2 +200x -250, graphed below, indicates how much profit he makes in a month
viktelen [127]
Here is our profit as a function of # of posters
p(x) =-10x² + 200x - 250
Here is our price per poster, as a function of the # of posters:
pr(x) = 20 - x
Since we want to find the optimum price and # of posters, let's plug our price function into our profit function, to find the optimum x, and then use that to find the optimum price:
p(x) = -10 (20-x)² + 200 (20 - x) - 250
p(x) = -10 (400 -40x + x²) + 4000 - 200x - 250
Take a look at our profit function. It is a normal trinomial square, with a negative sign on the squared term. This means the curve is a downward facing parabola, so our profit maximum will be the top of the curve.
By taking the derivative, we can find where p'(x) = 0 (where the slope of p(x) equals 0), to see where the top of profit function is.
p(x) = -4000 +400x -10x² + 4000 -200x -250
p'(x) = 400 - 20x -200
0 = 200 - 20x
20x = 200
x = 10                         
p'(x) = 0 at x=10. This is the peak of our profit function. To find the price per poster, plug x=10 into our price function:
price = 20 - x
price = 10
Now plug x=10 into our original profit function in order to find our maximum profit:
<span>p(x)= -10x^2 +200x -250
p(x) = -10 (10)</span>² +200 (10) - 250
<span>p(x) = -1000 + 2000 - 250
p(x) = 750

Correct answer is C)
