Scenario: Tom and Jerry measured the length of a yardstick and the length of a foot-long string and obtained 92.44 cm for the le

ngth of a yard and 31.48 cm for the length of a foot.
1) Given the exact value of 1 yard is 91.44 cm and of 1 foot is 30.48 cm, find the measurement error in the results obtained by Tom and Jerry.

2) Tom thinks that the two measurements are equally inaccurate. Jerry thinks that one of the two measurements is more accurate than the other. Find the error in measuring the length of 1 yard as a fraction of the exact length of 1 yard and give your answer as a percentage.

3) Find the error in measuring the length of 1 foot as a fraction of the exact length of 1 foot and give your answer as a percentage.

4) In what ways could expressing measurement errors as a percentage of the exact value be helpful?

5) How would you compare measurement errors?

List 0.5 1/5 0.35 12/25 4/5 from least to greatest
Anika [276]
One way is to make them all decimals or all fractions:

.5   .2  .35  .48  .80  are the numbers above changed to decimals.
I will make them the same length (two digit past the decimal point) to compare
.50   .20  .35  .48 and .80

Now it is easy to put them in order

.2  .35  .48   .5  and .80

Let's put them into all fractions

5/10   1/5   35/100   12/25 and 4/5

Instead of finding a common denominator let's try this:
Think of them as test scores - the person who got 1 out 5 did the worst
Next came the person who got only 35 out of 100 - they only did better than the one above (1/5)
12/25 is almost 1/2 but a little below half the questions right
5/10 is exactly half the questions right (so it is bigger than 12/25 by a little).
4/5 is the best score (and the only one who passed).
So 1/5, 35/100, 12/25, .5 and 4/5 are in order least to greatest and match the answer above in bold.

After ordering the data set, what is the next step in drawing a box plot that shows the distribution of the amounts spent? 1. Ma
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

2. Find the five boundary values

Step-by-step explanation:

When drawing a dot, the steps are;

i) The data set (the list of numbers to be presented in the dot plot) are arranged in increasing order from left to right, with thee lowest value on the left and the highest value located at the right of the list

ii) The five boundary values are listed as follows;

The Minimum and Maximum Values

1) The minimum value is the lowest number in the list, which is the first number from the left

2) The maximum value is the final number on the right of the list

3) The Median, Q₂

The median number is the number which divides the data arranged in increasing number, into two equal parts

The First Quartile and Third Quartile

The numbers are divided from the median, such that the Lower half is to the left of the Median, and the Upper half is to the right of median

4) The First Quartile, Q₁ = The median of the Lower half

5) The Third Quartile, Q₂ = The median of the Upper half

iii) The box plot is then drawn with the five boundary values found above

Find the value of x (URGENT/GIVING BRAINLIEST)
natta225 [31]

Answer:

B)10

Step-by-step explanation:

Because this is a right angle(indicated by the red box) the total measure should be 90°.

And based on that we say 5X +40=90

Subtract 40 from both sides to get 5x=50

And then divide both sides by 5 to get x=10

The mechanics at Giuseppe’s Auto House specialize in changing fuel injection units and transmissions. Last week, they changed 5
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

The solution is  (2,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> the number of hours to change a fuel injection unit

y-----> the number of hours to change a transmission

we know that

5x+10y=70 -----> equation A

8x+8y=64 -----> equation B

Solve the system of equations by graphing

Remember that the solution of the system of equations is the intersection point both graphs

The solution is the point (2,6)

see the attached figure
