You are testing two food scales for accuracy by weighing two different types of foods. Use the drop-down menus to complete the s

tatements about the scales' accuracy. Scale 1 Measured Weight Actual Weight 85 oz 100 oz Scale 2 Measured Weight Actual Weight 47 oz 50 oz CLEAR CHECK Because the object on Scale 1 weighs more than the object on Scale 2, each ounce of error results in a lesser percent error. Scale 1 was 15 ounces off and Scale 2 was 3 ounces off, so Scale 1 was % off and Scale 2 was % off.

Answer:

scale 1 was 15% off and SCALE 2 was 6% off

Step-by-step explanation:

Scale __ Measured Weight ____Actual Weight

1_________85 oz _______________100 oz

2 ________ 47 oz _______________ 50 oz

Percentage error :

[(|measured - actual |) ÷ actual] * 100%

Scale 1 :

|85 - 100| = 15 oz

15 / 100 * 100% = 15%

Scale 2 :

|47 - 50| = 3 oz

3 / 50 * 100% = 0.06 * 100% = 6%

Hence, scale 1 was 15% off while SCALE 2 was 6%

Apply the distributive property to create an equivalent expression. 12(2a - 6b+ 8) = 2 1 ​ (2a−6b+8)
liberstina [14]

Answer:

a+4=11b

Step-by-step explanation:

Distributive property in mathematics means to multiply the sum by a number of two or more add-ons will provide the same result that each add-on multiplies by a single number and then together add the products.

for example a( b+c) = ab+ac

Therefore, applying distributive property in asked eapression

12(2a - 6b+ 8) = 21(2a−6b+8)

24a+72b+96 = 42a-126b+168

198b=18a+72

9a +36=99b

3a+12=33b

a+4=11b

<span>I will discuss polynomials. A polynomial can be classified according to the number of expressions that it has in a given equation. A monomial has only one expression having a coefficient (number) and a variable (letter). A binomial has two expressions, same as the definition of the monomial. And a trinomial has three expressions, same as the definition of a monomial. We can determine the degree of a polynomial by looking at the exponents of the given polynomial. If an expression has two variables with different exponents, you can add their exponent to determine their degree.
