ΔABE is similar to ΔACD

AB/AC = AE/AD

.

<u>Solve y:</u>

3/5 = y/(y+ 3)

3(y + 3) = 5y

3y + 9 = 5y

2y = 9

y = 4.5

.

Answer: y = 4.5

The percentage error is 11.1%

<h3>What is percentage error?</h3>

Percentage error is simply the difference between the exact and the estimated values as a percentage

The given parameters are:

  • Estimate = 45
  • Actual = 50

The percentage error is then calculated as:

\% E = \frac{50 - 45}{45} \times 100\%

Evaluate the difference

\% E = \frac{5}{45} \times 100\%

So, we have:

\% E = \frac{500}{45} \%

\% E = 11.1\%

Hence, the percentage error is 11.1%

The function graphed above is:
dem82 [27]

Step-by-step explanation:

When the slope of the function is positive, it is increasing

when the slope of the function is negative, it is decreasing

just like with the line function  y = mx + b

so if you put a line tangent to the function at every point the slope of the line will indicate a increasing or decreasing point of the function

also beware where the slope is zero  it is not increasing or decreasing

there are two intervals of increasing, one interval of decreasing and two point of zero slope or neither increasing or decreasing

increasing interval  1)  x < -2     2) x > 1.5

decreasing interval   1)     -2 <  x < 1.5

at -2 and 1.5 the slope is zero
