Actual = 6 feet.

Measure = 5.49 feet

Error = 6 - 5.49 = 0.51

% Error = (Error / Actual) * 100%

= 0.51/6 * 100% = 8.5%

Answer:

$p=\frac{8}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{2}{4} = \frac{4}{p} - 3$

$\frac{1}{2} = \frac{4}{p} - 3$ (simplify)

$\frac{1}{2}+3 = \frac{4}{p} - 3+3$

$\frac{1}{2}+3 = \frac{4}{p}$ (Add 3 to both sides)

$\frac{7}{2}= \frac{4}{p}$ (simplify)

$\frac{7}{2}p= \frac{4}{p}*p$

$\frac{7p}{2}=4$ (Multiply both sides by p)

$\frac{7p}{2}*2=4*2$

$7p=8$ (Multiply both sides by 2)

$\frac{7p}{7}=\frac{8}{7}$

$p=\frac{8}{7}$ (Divide both sides by 7)

9 is in parentheses therefore it's elevated above 3 that means you have to do operations on it first.
3 + (-9) = -6
The sum is negative.
