Answer:

Percent error = -4.02 (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Estimated pool dimension = 15 ft long and 35 ft wide

Actual pool dimension = 14.5 ft long and 34.75 ft wide

Find:

Percent error

Computation:

Area of Estimated pool = 15 x 35

Area of Estimated pool = 525 ft²

Area of Actual pool = 14.5 x 34.75

Area of Actual pool = 508.875 ft²

Percent error = [(Actual - Estimated) / Estimated]100

Percent error = [(508.875 - 525) / 525]100

Percent error = [(-21.125) / 525]100

Percent error = -4.02 (Approx.)

A 35 pound dog eats an average of 2 1/2 cups of dry dog food a day. If you assume that there is a relationship between size and
zimovet [89]
70 / 35 = 2
So the 70 pound dog weights double the weight of the 35 pound dog, so he will eat twice as much.

2 x 2.5 = 5 cups

Meaning he will eat 5 cups of dry dog food a day.

By the same logic a 140 pound dog would have to eat twice what a 70 pound dog eats, that is 10 cups of dry dog food a day, so 7 1/2 cups are not enough.

Challenge: per pound a dog eats more than a cat. Since you know a 140 pound dog eats 10 cups, you can dive 140 by 10, to find out that each cup feeds 14 pounds, so half a cup would be the amount of food to feed a 7 pound dog, meaning that a dog weighing 1 pound less than a 8 pound cat would need the same amount of food, so it eats more than a cat.
