Answer:

13.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Find the actual volume of the box

Volume = Length × Width × Height

You measure the box and find that it has a length of 10 inches, a width of 9 inches, and a helght of 4.5 inches.

Volume = 10 inches × 9 inches × 4.5 inches

Volume of the box = 405 cubic inches

Step 2

Calculate the percent error

|Estimated value - Actual value|/Actual value ×100

Estimated value= 350 cubic inches

Actual value = 405 cubic inches

= |350 - 405|/405 × 100

= |-55|/405 × 100

= 55/405 × 100

= 13.580246914%

Approximately = 13.6%

The Percent error is 13.6%

If x and x+ 10 are a pair of adjacent angle find them ​
ikadub [295]

Answer:

85° and 95°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that , x and x + 10 are a pair of angles .

  • If they will be pair of angles on the same line , then their sum will be 180° .

=> x + x + 10° = 180°

=> 2x = 180° -10°

=> 2x = 170°

=> x = 170°/2

=> x = 85° .

<h3><u>Hence </u><u>the </u><u>two </u><u>angles</u><u> </u><u>are </u><u>8</u><u>5</u><u>°</u><u> </u><u>and </u><u>9</u><u>5</u><u>°</u><u> </u><u>.</u></h3>

so yeah

i am not sure if its correct

Graph the equation y = x2 + 8x + 12 on the accompanying set of axes. You must
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Roots:  set y = x^2 + 8x + 12 = 0 and solve for x:  x + 6 = 0, so x = -6 is one root.  The other is x = -2.  The corresponding points are (-6, 0) and (-2, 0).

y-intercept:  Let x = 0.  Then y = 12.  The y-intercept is (0, 12).

Axis of symmetry:  x = -b / (2a) => x = -8/(2*1) = -4:  x = -4

Vertex y-value:  evaluate y at x = - 4:  (-4)^2 + 8(-4) + 12 = -4:    (-4, -4)

Arbitrarily chosen x value:  x = 1 => 1^2 + 8(1) + 12 = 21:     (1, 21)

The five points are:  (-6, 0) and (-2, 0), (0, 12), (-4, -4), (1, 21).  The vertex is (-4, -4).  The parabolic graph opens UP.

A singles tennis court is a rectangle 27 feet wide and 78 feet long. Suppose a player at corner A hits the ball to her opponent
Sav [38]
Basically, you just have to find the length of the rectangle that is 27 x 78 feet.
The equation for the diagonal: 
d = sqrt(l^2+w^2)
l = 27
w = 78
plug them in and solve
d = sqrt ( (27^2) + (78^2) )
d = sqrt ( 729 + 6084 )
d = sqrt ( 6813 )
d <span>≈ 82.5

The ball traveled approximately 82.5 feet from one corner of the rectangular 27 x 78 foot field, diagonally to the other side.

Hope this helps</span>
