Answer:

38.72%

Step-by-step explanation:

Estimated attendance = 1,000

The actual value of attendance = 1,632

We need to find the percent error of Shaun's estimate. Using the formula as follows :

$\%=\dfrac{|\text{actual value-estimated value}|}{\text{actual value}}\times 100$

Put all the values,

$\%=\dfrac{1632-1000}{1632}\times 100\\\\=38.72\%$

So, the percent error of Shaun's estimate is 38.72%.

If we are to write this equation in slope-intercept form, it will be in y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y intercept. We need then to find the slope of the line using 2 points on the line and filling in the slope formula to find the slope. One of the points we can use is (0, 3) which is also the y intercept. The y-intercept is found where x = 0. Where x = 0, y = 3. So b = 3. Now for the slope we will use (0,3) and (4,4): $m= \frac{4-3}{4-0} = \frac{1}{4}$ . Using that m value and that b value we have the equation $y= \frac{1}{4}x+3$ . There you go!

A 13.5-m fire truck ladder is leaning against a wall. Find the distance d the ladder goes up the wall (above the fire truck)

larisa86 [58]

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. You have the the 13.5-m fire truck ladder is leaning against a wall and the ladder makes an angle of 39 degrees 45 ' with the horizontal.

2. Then you have:

39 degrees 45'=39.75°

Sin(39.75°)=d/13.5
d=13.5xSin(39.75°)
 d=8.63

Line E'F' has endpoints located at E'(1,0) and F'(1,3). Line EF was dilated by a scale of 1/2 from the orgin. Which statement de

Lerok [7]

Answer:

If line EF was dilated by a scale of 1/2 from the origin to get line E'F', then if line E'F' is dilated by a scale of 2 from the origin, EF is obtained. Also, the length of EF is double than the length of E'F'.

Dilation by a scale of 2 from the origin transforms point (x,y) into (2*x, 2*y)

E'(1,0) -> E(2,0)

F'(1, 3) ->F(2, 6)

length of E'F': 3

length of EF: 6
