Answer:

The percent error of the length of the soccer field is 1.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Actual length of soccer field = 500 feet

Length shown in measuring instrument = 493 feet

We need to find the percent error of the length of the soccer field.

The formula used to find percent error of the length of the soccer field is: Percent\:error=\frac{approximate\;value-exact\:value}{exact\:value}\times 100\%

The exact length = 500

Approximate length = 493

Putting values and finding percent error

Percent\:error=|\frac{approximate\;value-exact\:value}{exact\:value}|\times 100\%\\Percent\:error=|\frac{493-500}{500}|\times 100\%\\Percent\:error=|-0.014|\times 100\%\\Percent\:error=0.014\times 100\%\\Percent\:error=1.4\%

So, the percent error of the length of the soccer field is 1.4%

In a candy mix there are 4 green bars for every 3 red bars. How many red bars are there if there are 200 green bars
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

Since there are 4 green bars for every 3 red bars and we are trying to find the number of red bars if there are 200 green bars, we can create the ratio:

4 x : 3 y

Where  x  is equal to the number of green bars and  y is the number of red bars.

We know the number of green bars is equal to 200, so we can divide it by 4, giving us:

200 /4=50

Then we can solve for  y , the number of red bars.

// Multiple y  by 50

3 ⋅ 50 = 150

So for every 4 green bars, there are 3 red bars.

For every 200 green bars, there are 150 red bars

WHAT IS THE VALUE OF X?
Tanzania [10]

It is a similar triangle so the side length of the smaller triangle (x and x-2) are in the same ratio as the bigger triangle (2x+5 and 2x-1). As the ratio is the same, you can equate them and solve for x.
