<h2>Answer :</h2>

Error (e) = 12 - 9 = $ 3

assumed value (a) = $ 9

$\boxed{ \mathrm{ \% \: error = \dfrac{error}{assumed \: value} \times 100}}$

$\mathrm{ \% \: error =\dfrac{3}{9} ×100}$

$\mathrm{ \% \: error = \dfrac{1}{3} ×100}$

$\mathrm{ \% \: error = 33.33 \%}$

If x-1/3 = k and k = 3, what is the value of x ? A) 2 B) 4 C) 9 D) 10

Semenov [28]

Answer:

None of the above

Step-by-step explanation:

x-1/3 = k

We know that k=3, so we can substitute that into the equation

x-1/3 = 3

Add 1/3 to each side

x-1/3 + 1/3 = 3+1/3

x = 3 1/3 or as an improper fraction 10/3

Which is the simplified form of the expression ((2 Superscript negative 2 Baseline) (3 Superscript 4 Baseline)) Superscript nega

AlekseyPX

Answer:

The option "StartFraction 1 Over 3 Superscript 8" is correct

That is $\frac{1}{3^8}$ is correct answer

Therefore $[(2^{-2})(3^4)]^{-3}\times [(2^{-3})(3^2)]^2=\frac{1}{3^8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is ((2 Superscript negative 2 Baseline) (3 Superscript 4 Baseline)) Superscript negative 3 Baseline times ((2 Superscript negative 3 Baseline) (3 squared)) squared

The given expression can be written as

$[(2^{-2})(3^4)]^{-3}\times [(2^{-3})(3^2)]^2$

To find the simplified form of the given expression :

$[(2^{-2})(3^4)]^{-3}\times [(2^{-3})(3^2)]^2$

$=(2^{-2})^{-3}(3^4)^{-3}\times (2^{-3})^2(3^2)^2$ ( using the property $(ab)^m=a^m.b^m$ )

$=(2^6)(3^{-12})\times (2^{-6})(3^4)$ ( using the property $(a^m)^n=a^{mn}$

$=(2^6)(2^{-6})(3^{-12})(3^4)$ ( combining the like powers )

$=2^{6-6}3^{-12+4}$ ( using the property $a^m.a^n=a^{m+n}$ )

$=2^03^{-8}$

$=\frac{1}{3^8}$ ( using the property $a^{-m}=\frac{1}{a^m}$ )

Therefore $[(2^{-2})(3^4)]^{-3}\times [(2^{-3})(3^2)]^2=\frac{1}{3^8}$

Therefore option "StartFraction 1 Over 3 Superscript 8" is correct

That is $\frac{1}{3^8}$ is correct answer
