Answer- 133.33% How and Why-first divide the the estimated amount with the actual weight. After that you have to multiply by 100. If you do your calculations correctly you will have 133.33 *just notice that I rounded. Happy to help you and have a nice day! :)

To find that , divide the estimate by the actual weight and multiply by 100.
8/6*100=133.33%(rounded)
Therefore the percent error is 133.33%.

A raft travels downriver at a rate of 6 miles per hour. The total distance d in mile that the raft travels is equal to the rate
matrenka [14]

Answer:

Dependent variable: total distance (d)

Independent variable: number of hours (h)

Equation: d = 6h

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case given, the dependent variable, total distance (d), is dependent on the independent variable, number of hours (h). This is because, a change in the value of h leads to the change in the value of d. In order words, total distance (d) is a function of the number of hours (h).

Therefore:

Dependent variable: total distance (d)

Independent variable: number of hours (h)

Rate: 6 miles/hr

Equation: d = 6h

Bernice takes a multiple-choice test, each question having 4 choices. If Bernice has no idea of any answer and simply guesses, f
hoa [83]

We want to find the probability that Berenice gets all the answers correct.

<u>1 question:</u>

Each question has 4 options, each option has the same probability of being the correct option, so she has a 25% of<u> randomly selecting the correct option.</u>

Then the probability here will just be equal to the number of correct options (1) over the total number of options (4)

p = 1/4

2 questions:

We already know the probability for one question, then the probability of getting two questions correct will be equal to the <u>product of the individual probabilities</u> for each question:

p = (1/4)*(1/4 = 1/16

3 questions:

Similar approach as before:

p = (1/4)*(1/4)*(1/4) = 1/64

4 questions:

p =  (1/4)*(1/4)*(1/4)*(1/4) = 1/256

Help 15 points!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle

tan A = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} = \frac{BC}{AC} = \frac{7}{8} , then

∠ A = tan^{-1} (\frac{7}{8} ) ≈ 41° ( to the nearest degree )

The sum of the angles in the triangle = 180° , then

∠ B + 41° + 90° = 180°

∠ B + 131° = 180° ( subtract 131° from both sides )

∠ B = 49°

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle

AB² = BC² + AC² = 7² + 8² = 49 + 64 = 113 ( take square root of both sides )

AB = \sqrt{113} ≈ 10.6 ( to the nearest tenth )
