Answer:

Percent error is approx. 22%

Step-by-step explanation:

So to do this you need to know the formula for percent error, which is

percent error = l measured - theoretical / theoretical l * 100%

With this just plug in 18 (real) and 14 (measured).

percent error = l 14 - 18 / 18 l * 100%

percent error = l -4 / 18 l *100%

percent error = l -2/9 l *100%

You then do absolute value because the percent error must be positive not negative! So -2/9 becomes 2/9. You then divide 2/9 to get approx. 0.22... and you muliply by 100% to get 22%.

What's the pattern?<br> 1,2,4,8,16.....
Inessa05 [86]
You have to add the last number to itself. So the next number would be 32 because 16 + 16 equals 32. Then you add 32 + 32 so the next number would be 64
1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128

BRAINLIEST, MEDAL, STARS!!! PLEASE HELP MAEEE! TRIANGLE INEQUALITY THEORM! which collection of three side lengths can be used to
mestny [16]
C.  The Triangle Inequality Theorem States that any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the third side. It cannot be A because 35+40= 75, which is not greater than 75. It cannot be B because 40+30= 70, which is not greater than 75. It cannot be D because 35+40= 75, which is not greater than 80. It is C because 40+30= 70, which is greater than 65.
