Answer:

Percent error = 15.79%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Experimental value = 12cm

Actual value = 14.25cm

To find the percentage error;

Percent error can be defined as a measure of the extent to which an experimental value differs from the theoretical value.

Mathematically, it is given by this expression;

Percent \; error = \frac {experimental \;value - actual \; value}{ actual \;value} *100

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Percent \; error = \frac {12 - 14.25}{14.25} *100

Percent \; error = \frac {2.25}{14.25} *100

Percent \; error = 0.1579 *100

Percent error = 15.79%

How many solutions exist for 2|x − 1| = 8?
lora16 [44]
Two solutions exist,
2(x - 1) = 8
2x - 2 = 8
2x = 10
x = 5
&
2(x + 1) = 8
2x + 2 = 8
2x = 6
x = 3

the two solutions are 5 and 3
