Answer:
n - (-6) < 9
n < 3
Step-by-step explanation:
When setting up an inequality, using the key words from the problem will help. The word 'difference' would indicate subtraction and 'less than' would be the '<' inequality sign. Since the expression is 'the difference of a number and -6', we write:
n - (-6) < 9
Whenever we subtract a negative number, we change both signs to positive:
n + 6 < 9
Using inverse operations to solve: n + 6 - 6 < 9 - 6
n < 3
297/11 = 27
So we have 27 groups of 11 students. If there are 2 chaperones for every 11 students, then we can do:
27x2=54
There are 54 chaperones on the field trip.
You'll need to give a bit more information for the question to be answered. You can only calculate the percentage of error if you know what the mass of the substance *should be* and what you've *measured* it to be.
In other words, if a substance has a mass of 0.55 grams and you measure it to be 0.80 grams, then the percent of error would be:
percent of error = { | measured value - actual value | / actual value } x 100%
So, in this case:
percent of error = { | 0.80 - 0.55 | / 0.55 } x 100%
percent of error = { | 0.25 | / 0.55 } x 100%
percent of error = 0.4545 x 100%
percent of error = 45.45%
So, in order to calculate the percent of error, you'll need to know what these two measurements are. Once you know these, plug them into the formula above and you should be all set!
Since the slope is rise/run, 1/6 goes up one, right 6. Perpendicular is opposite that. so a slope of -6 goes down 6 and right 1. (as a fraction it's -6/1)
