Answer:
N = 16 measurements
Step-by-step explanation:
A method produces a random error for each measurement of 4%
A percent error of equal to or less than 1% is required.
We want to find out the minimum number of measurements that must be collected.
The standard error is given by
Where s is the standard deviation and N is the number of measurements.
We are given standard deviation equal to 4% and SE equal to 1%
So re-arranging the above equation for N
Therefore, a minimum 16 number of measurements are needed.
Anthony has a square-shaped, wooden board. To build a door, he uses the board and cuts 3 feet off of its width. The new area of the wooden board is given by the expression below, where x represents the length in feet.
x(x-3)
Which statement best describes the term (x - 3)?
For this case, we have the total of painters is 16, so to determine what percentage is painting the interior of the house, we make a rule of three:
16 ---------------> 100%
4 -----------------> x
Where "x" represents the% of painters who paint the interior of the house.
Thus, 25% of painters are painting the interior of the house.
Answer:
25%
complete question:
The sum of the digits of a two-digit numeral is 8. If the digits are reversed, the new number is 18 greater than the original number. How do you find the original numeral?
Answer:
The original number is 10a + b = 10 × 3 + 5 = 35
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
the number = ab
a occupies the tens place while b occupies the unit place. Therefore,
10a + b
The sum of the digits of two-digits numeral
a + b = 8..........(i)
If the digits are reversed. The reverse digit will be 10b + a. The new number is 18 greater than the original number.
Therefore,
10b + a = 18 + 10a + b
10b - b + a - 10a = 18
9b - 9a = 18
divide both sides by 9
b - a = 2...............(ii)
a + b = 8..........(i)
b - a = 2...............(ii)
b = 2 + a from equation (ii)
Insert the value of b in equation (i)
a + (2 + a) = 8
2a + 2 = 8
2a = 6
a = 6/2
a = 3
Insert the value of a in equation(ii)
b - 3 = 2
b = 2 + 3
b = 5
The original number is 10a + b = 10 × 3 + 5 = 35
