Answer:

Suppose the next case.

You want to buy an object from another state or country, you know that the cost of this object is C, and for bringing it from another place, you need to pay a tax, such that you do not know the exact value of the tax, you know that this can be between 3% and 9%.

Then the tax can be written as:

6% ± 3%

then the error is 3%, this means that the percent error is:

(3%/6%)*100% = 50%

Then you know that there is an error of 50% in the tax.

This can be helpful so you can estimate the maximum and minimum cost of tax that you will pay for this purchase.

Also there are a lot of situations where the percent error give us a lot of information.

"a measure of 10 cm with an error of 1 cm"

The percent error is: (1cm/10cm)*100% = 10%

And in a measure of 3cm with an error of 1cm we have:

(1cm/3cm) = 33.33%

In both cases we have the came error, but different percent error.

Then the percent error also tell us how much the error affects our measure.

A family read the odometer before starting a trip .It read 22900.6 and they know they will be driving 302.5 miles . What's will
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

23,203.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Generally, an odometer measures distance traveled during the usage life cycle of a car. It is necessary to say the distance is measured cumulatively.

Now, to get the value the odometer will be reading after the trip, we need to add the present reading of the odometer to the new distance to be traveled.

Thus, the reading of the odometer after the trip will be 22900.6 + 302.5 = 23,203.1

Triangles G H L and K H J are connected at point H. Angles Angles L G H and H K J are congruent. Sides G H and H K are congruent
stira [4]

The congruence theorem that can be used is: B. ASA

<h3>What is the ASA Congruence Theorem?</h3>

If we have two triangles that have two pairs of corresponding congruent angles (e.g. ∠LGH ≅ ∠HKJ and ∠LHG ≅ ∠KHJ), and a pair of corresponding congruent sides (e.g. GH ≅ HK), the triangles are said to be congruent triangles by the ASA congruence theorem.

Therefore, triangles GHL and KHL in the image given are congruent triangles by the  ASA congruence theorem.
