Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation: The percent of error formula is |(theoretical value-actual value)/actual value|=percent of error. Substitute the values in. |(2.8-3.5)/3.5|=|(-0.7)/3.5|=0.2. The percent equal to 0.2 is 20%.

Travka [436]

Answer:

Aidan is 2 miles far from the ending point when he reaches the water station.

Step-by-step explanation:

The locations of the starting point, water station and ending point are (3, 1), (3, 7) and (3, 9), all expressed in miles. First we determine the distances between starting and ending points and between starting point and water station by the Pythagorean Theorem:

From starting point to ending point:

$D = \sqrt{(3-3)^{2}+(9-1)^{2}}$ (Eq. 1)

$D = 8\,mi$

From starting point to water station:

$d = \sqrt{(3-3)^{2}+(7-1)^{2}}$ (Eq. 2)

$d = 6\,mi$

The distance between the water station and the ending point is:

$s = D-d$ (Eq. 3)

$s = 8\,mi-6\,mi$

$s = 2\,mi$

Hence, Aidan is 2 miles far from the ending point when he reaches the water station.

What is the fourth term in the binomial expansion (a+b)^6)

Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

$20a^3b^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Binomial Series</u>

$(a+b)^n=a^n+\dfrac{n!}{1!(n-1)!}a^{n-1}b+\dfrac{n!}{2!(n-2)!}a^{n-2}b^2+...+\dfrac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}a^{n-r}b^r+...+b^n$

<u>Factorial</u> is denoted by an exclamation mark "!" placed after the number. It means to multiply all whole numbers from the given number down to 1.

Example: 4! = 4 × 3 × 2 × 1

Therefore, the fourth term in the binomial expansion (a + b)⁶ is:

$\implies \dfrac{n!}{3!(n-3)!}a^{n-3}b^3$

$\implies \dfrac{6!}{3!(6-3)!}a^{6-3}b^3$

$\implies \dfrac{6!}{3!3!}a^{3}b^3$

$\implies \left(\dfrac{6 \times 5 \times 4 \times \diagup\!\!\!\!3 \times \diagup\!\!\!\!2 \times \diagup\!\!\!\!1}{3 \times 2 \times 1 \times \diagup\!\!\!\!3 \times \diagup\!\!\!\!2 \times \diagup\!\!\!\!1}\right)a^{3}b^3$

$\implies \left(\dfrac{120}{6}\right)a^{3}b^3$

$\implies 20a^3b^3$

What is the volume of the cone to the nearest tenth?

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

366.5cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Determine the height and radius of cone.

2. Using the formula for the volume of a cone input where there is an h and r.

3.Where it says Area of base, it is talking about the circular base and that you need to find its area. (π×r²), you already have the radius so you put it in the formula and solve (π×5²)

4. Once you have the area of the base you can now completely solve. Multiply ⅓×(78.54)×14
