A measurement of 0.6 grams means that the 'true' answer lies between
<span>0.55 and 0.65 </span>

In general, the uncertainty in a single measurement from a single instrument is half the least precise decimal given for the instrument.
The precision for this measurement is in the tenths place.
so we take 0.1 /2 = 0.05, and divide by the measurement

<span>0.05 / 0.6 = 0.08333 = 8.3 %</span>

We define variables:
 x = represent the width of the field
 y = represent the length of the field
 We write the perimeter (with no fencing along the river):
 2400 = 2x + y
 We clear y:
 y = 2400-2x
 Answer:
 
an expression for the length of the field as a function of x is:

The table shows the number of candid pictures of students for the yearbook for two consecutive years. Year Number of Photos 2015
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

The percentage decrease in the number candid student pictures for the yearbook from 2015 to 2016 is approximately 9.3 percent

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data can be presented as follows

Year           {}                      Number of Photos

2015           {}                      236

2016           {}                      214

The percentage decrease in the number of candid pictures is give by the following formula

Percentage \ Decrease = \dfrac{Original \ Value- New \ Value}{Original \ Value}  \times 100

Where;

Original value for the number of pictures = 236

New value for the number of pictures = 214

Substituting the values into the equation for the percentage decrease gives;

Percentage \ Decrease = \dfrac{236- 214}{236}  \times 100 = \dfrac{550}{59} \ percent\approx 9.3 \%

The percentage decrease is approximately 9.3 percent.
