Answer:  

13.1%

Step-by-step explanation:  

The company estimated that there would be 500 a ps during the football season

The actually sold 575

Therefore the percent error can be calculated as follows

= 575-500/575 × 100

= 75/575 × 100

= 0.1304×100

= 13.1%

Hence the percent error is 13.1%

The speedometer in Henry's car is broken. The function y = |x - 8| represents the difference y between the car's actual speed x
Alekssandra [29.7K]

The interpretation of the function is that the difference y between the car's actual speed x and the displayed speed is 8

<h3>How to describe the translation. </h3>

The function is given as:

y = |x - 8|

The above function is an absolute function.

And the parent function of an absolute function is

y = |x|

When a function is translated right by h units, the new function is y = |x - h|

This means that the translation is a translation to the right by 8 units

See attachment for the graph the function.

<h3>Interpret the function and the translation in terms of the context of the situation.</h3>

The function is given as:

y = |x - 8|

This represents the difference y between the car's actual speed x and the displayed speed.

So, the interpretation of the function is that the difference y between the car's actual speed x and the displayed speed is 8

The graph below shows the relationship between pounds of dog food and total cost, in dollars, for the dog food. A coordinate gra
n200080 [17]

We know that x-axis represents weight of dog food in pounds

AND y-axis represents Total cost in dollars

AND a line connects (0,0) and (10,5)

Based on the information we can plot a graph that can be seen in the attached image. The line represents y = \frac{x}{2}

Now, let's look at each of the statements to see which is true and which is false:

A) Point (0, 0) shows the cost is $0 for 0 pound of dog food.

(0,0) indicates that the cost for 0 pound dog food is $0. Hence, this statement is true.

B) Point (1, 0.5) shows the cost is $1.00 for 0.5 pound of dog food.

(1,0.5) indicates that the cost for 1 pound dog food is $0.5. Hence, this statement is false.

C) Point (2, 1) shows that 2 pounds of dog food cost $1.

(2,1) indicates that the cost for 2 pounds dog food is $1. Hence, this statement is true.

D) Point (4, 2) shows the cost is $4 for 2 pounds of dog food.

(4,2) indicates that the cost for 4 pounds dog food is $2. Hence, this is false.

E) Point (10, 5) shows that 10 pounds of dog food costs $5

(10,5) indicates the cost for 10 pounds dog food is $5. Hence, this is true.

The dot plots below show the test scores of some mathematics students and some science students: Two dot plots are shown one bel
frez [133]

Answer:

Science students

When you find the average both plots using median, mean, or interquartile range, you will find that the score for the science students will always be greater than the score of the mathematics students. This is because none of the mathematics students scored higher than the science students, so the mean will always be greater.

MATHEMATICS :

Plot interval = 30 to 50

MEAN :

(34*2) + (40*2) + (32*1) + (33*1) + (35*1) + (37*1) + (39*1) = 324

Sample size, n = (2 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1) = 9

Mean = 324 / 9 = 36

BOTTOM :

SCIENCE :

MEAN : (43*2)+(46*2)+(49*2)+(41*1)+(42*1)+(47*1) =

406

SAMPLE SIZE = (2 + 2 + 2 + 1 +1 +1) = 9

406 / 9 = 45.111

Step-by-step explanation: hope this helps
