The error percentage is 4.13%.

Given

Annie estimates that the height of a bookcase is 78.25 in.

The actual height is 75.50 in.

<h3>To find </h3>

The error percentage.

<h3>How to find the error percentage?</h3>

We know the formula for the error percentage.

\rm \% Error = \dfrac{Measured \ value- Actual\ value}{Actual\ value} * 100\\\\ \% Error = \dfrac{78.25 - 75.50}{78.75}*100\\\\ \% Error = \dfrac{3.25}{78.75}*100\\\\ \% Error = 0.0413*100\\\\ \% Error = 4.13 \%

The error percentage is 4.13%.

Nate is exponentially gaining Twitter followers! His current amount of followers is 146. His followers are increasing at a 24% r
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

(a) Growth

(b)\ y = 146(1.24)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

a= 146 -- current

r = 24\% --- rate

Solving (a): Growth or decay

The question says his followers increases each day by 24%.

Increment means growth.

<em />

<em>Hence, it is a growth problem</em>

Solving (b): Equation to represent the scenario.

Since the rate represents growth, the equation is:

y = a(1 + r)^x

Substitute: a= 146 and r = 24\%

y = 146 * (1 + 24\%)^x

y = 146 * (1 + 0.24)^x

y = 146 * (1.24)^x

y = 146(1.24)^x
