the answer for the following question is 7
I believe the answer is 5x
A 96 because 25 percent of 400 is 100 and 24 percent is 96
Answer
Answer
The speedometer is likely to show the speed is either 36.0 mph or 44.0 mph.
To prove
Formula

Where error = |Approx value - Exact value |
First case
As given
A speedometer has a percent error of 10%. The actual speed of the car is 40 mph.
Here
Percentage error = 10%
Exact value = 40 mph
error = - (Approx value - Exact value )
= - (Approx value - 40 )
= - Approx value + 40
Put in the formula


Thus
Approx value = 40 - 4
Approx value = 36 mph
Therefore Option (b) is correct .
Second Case
error = (Approx value - Exact value )
= (Approx value - 40 )
= Approx value - 40
Put in the formula


Thus
Approx value = 40 + 4
Approx value = 44 mph
Therefore Option (c) is correct .
