The complete question in the attached figure
we know that
2 liters may be 1.5 to 1.9 rounded up to 2
or 2.1 to 2.4 rounded down to 2
the biggest percent error would be between 2 and 1.5, which is a volume error of 0.5 liters
2 - 1.5 = 0.5 liters
percent error = (absolute error / quantity) * 100
percent error = [0.5/2] * 100% = 0.25 * 100% = 25%
the answer is the option C) 25%
She'll have 17 with a remainder, just divide 139 by 8.
Find the equations of the lines...
First find the slope...(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)=m
m=(6-1)/(8-5)=5/3 and it passes through (5,1) so
y=mx+b becomes:
y=5x/3+b and using (5,1)
1=5(5)/3+b
1=25/3+b
3/3-25/3=b
b=-22/3 so
y1=(5x-22)/3
.... now y2...
m=(8-3)/(-1--4)=5/3 (note it has the same slope as y1...
y=5x/3+b and using the point (-1,8)
8=5(-1)/3+b
8=-5/3+b
24/3+5/3=b
b=29/3, now note that the y-intercept is different...
y2=(5x+29)/3
Since these lines have the same slope but different y-intercepts, they are parallel to each other. (and will never intersect.)
Answer:
(A)The northern lighthouse is 8.2 miles closer than the southern lighthouse.
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangle attached represents the given problem.
First, let us determine the distance of the Boat from each of the lighthouse.
In Triangle ABC,
∠A+∠B+∠C=180 degrees
21+∠B+16=180
∠B=180-37=143 degrees.
Using Law of Sines

Similarly

Difference in Distance =35.73-27.48=8.25 miles
Therefore, the northern lighthouse is 8.2 miles closer than the southern lighthouse.
I am a number greater than 40,000 and less than 60,000:
40,000 < n < 60,000
This means that:
n = 10,000n₁ + 1,000n₂ + 100n₃ + 11n₄
And also:
4 ≤ n₁ < 6
0 ≤ n₂ ≤ 9
0 ≤ n₃ ≤ 9
0 ≤ n₄ ≤ 9
My ten thousands digit is 1 less than 3 times the sum of my ones digit and tens digit:
n₁ = 3*2n₄ - 1
n₁ = 6n₄ - 1
This means that:
n = 10,000*(6n₄-1) + 1,000n₂ + 100n₃ + 11n₄
n = 60,000n₄ - 10,000 + 1,000n₂ + 100n₃ + 11n₄
n = 60,011n₄ - 10,000 + 1,000n₂ + 100n₃
<span>My thousands digit is half my hundreds digit, and the sum of those two digits is 9:
n</span>₂ = 1/2 * n₃
<span>
n</span>₂ + n₃ = 9
<span>
Therefore:
n</span>₂ = 9 - n₃
<span>
Therefore:
9 - n</span>₃ = 1/2 * n₃
<span>
9 = 1/2 * n</span>₃ + n₃
<span>
9 = 1.5 * n</span>₃
<span>
Therefore:
n</span>₃ = 6
<span>
If n</span>₃=6, n₂=3.
<span>
This means that:
</span>n = 60,011n₄ - 10,000 + 1,000*3 + 100*6
n = 60,011n₄ - 10,000 + 3,000 + 600
n = 60,011n₄ - 6,400
Therefore:
0<n₄<2, so n₄=1.
If n₄=1:
n = 60,011 - 6,400
n = 53,611
Answer:
53,611
