A student decides it is possible to estimate the capacity of a test tube by treating it as a
rectangle and neglecting it's "roundness". On this basis, the student finds the capacity of the
test tube to be 100.5 ml. In fact, the real capacity of the test tube is 100.0 ml. What percent
error has resulted from the student's assumption?

Answers

Answer 1

The percent error that has resulted from the student's assumption is 0.5%.

The percent error is used to calculate the percentage error between an experimental measured value and a theoretical actual value.

Percentage error formula = |E-T|/|T| x 100

where E is the experimental value and T is the theoretical value.

Given, the experimental measured value (E) = 100.5 ml and theoretical actual value (T) = 100.0 ml

By using the Percentage error formula, simply put the value of the capacity of the test tube which was found by the student as an experimental measured value and real capacity of the test tube as a theoretical actual value, we get

=|(100.5−100.0)||100.0| × 100

=0.5/100×100

=0.005×100

=0.5%

=0.5% error

∴ 0.5% error has resulted from the student's assumption.

1. For a fundraiser, the ratio of tickets you sold to tickets your friend sold was 11:5.
Does that mean you sold 11 raffle tickets and your friend sold 5 raffle tickets? Explain your
reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

No, for various value of x the number of tickets sold by me and my friend for the fundraiser can vary but will always remain in the ratio of 11:5.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that for a fundraiser, the ratio of tickets you sold to tickets your friend sold was 11:5.

Let us look at the ratio of tickets sold by both the persons.

Now, according to the condition given and the ratio mentioned in the question;

The number of tickets sold by me for the fundraiser be = 11x

and

The number of tickets sold by my friend for the fundraiser be = 5x

It is observed that total number of tickets sold by me and my friend are;

=> 11x + 5x

So, it is inferred that the number of tickets sold by me and my friend are not 11 and 5 respectively and can vary upon the value of x.

For instance, if the value of x = 2 than;

=> 11x + 5x

=> 11 × 2 + 5 × 2

=> 22 + 10

=> 32 tickets

Therefore,

No, for various value of x the number of tickets sold by me and my friend for the fundraiser can vary but will always remain in the ratio of 11:5.

Based on the alternate exterior angles theorem, the equation is: 15x - 3 = 14x + 2

The value of x = 5.

What is the Alternate Exterior Angles Theorem?

The angles, (15x - 3) and (14x + 2) are alternate exterior angles. Based on the alternate exterior angles theorem/postulate, they are congruent to each other.

Thus, the equation to create in solving for the value of x would be:

15x - 3 = 14x + 2

Subtract 14x from both sides of the equation

15x - 3 - 14x = 14x + 2 - 14x [subtraction property of equality]

x - 3 = 2

Add 3 to both sides

x - 3 + 3 = 2 + 3 [addition property of equality]

x = 5

In summary, based on the alternate exterior angles theorem, the equation is: 15x - 3 = 14x + 2

The value of x = 5.

Answers

Answer: Total temperature = -6.66ºF

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data,

First temperature = 1.3ºF

Second temperature = -2.8ºF

Fest = 10.000

So,

We can write,

                      1.3º x + (-2.8º) x = 10.000

                          x (1.3º - 2.8º) = 10.000

                            x (-1.5º) = 10.000

                               x = 10.000/-1.5º

                               x = -6.66ºF

Therefore,

Find the other endpoint for the midsegment of the given trapezoid.

Answers

Applying the midpoint formula, the endpoints for the midsegment are (-0.5, 0.5) and (-5/2, -7/2).

What is a Midsegment of a Trapezoid?

The midsegment of a trapezoid is the line segment that intersects the two legs of the trapezoid at their midpoints.

Hence, to find the endpoint for the midsegment of the other leg of the trapezoid, apply the midpoint formula, M[(x2 + x1)/2, (y2 + y1)/2].

Find the midpoint between A(-2, -5) and B(-3, -2):

A(-2, -5) = (x1, y1)

B(-3, -2) = (x2, y2)

Plug in the values

M[(-3 + (-2))/2, (-2 + (-5))/2]

M(-5/2, -7/2)

Therefore, using the midpoint formula, the endpoints for the midsegment are (-0.5, 0.5) and (-5/2, -7/2).

Answers

Using scientific notation, the total kilowatt-hours of electricity used during these two years is:

(6.03 x 10^9) + (4.3 x 10^11) = (0.0603 x 10^11) + (4.3 x 10^11) = 4.3603 x 10^11

What is scientific notation?

A number in scientific notation is given by:

[tex]a \times 10^b[/tex]

With the base being [tex]a \in [1, 10)[/tex].

For two numbers in scientific notation to be added or subtracted, they need to have the same exponent.

Thus, the first amount has to have an exponent of 10^11, meaning that the exponent has to be added by 2 = equivalent to addition by 100, and to compensate the base has to be divided by 100, hence:

(6.03 x 10^9) + (4.3 x 10^11) = (0.0603 x 10^11) + (4.3 x 10^11) = 4.3603 x 10^11

What is the point slope equation of a line that goes through
(-2,-7) and is parallel to y=14x-3?
If y and x vary directly and y=1.4when x=3.2, what is x when y=2.6? Round to two decimal places.

Answers

1. The slope-intercept equation of the line is: y = x - 3.

2. The equation of the line in standard form is: -1/5x + y = 5

3. The equation in point-slope form is: y + 7 = 14(x + 2)

4. The value of x ≈ 5.94

How to Find the Slope?

Slope (m) = y2 - y1/x2 - x1.

There are three ways too write the equation of a line, they include:

As slope-intercept form, y = mx + bAs point-slope form, y - b = m(x - a)As standard form, Ax + By = C.

1. find the slope (m) of the line that passes through (8, 5) and (7, 4):

Slope (m) = (5 - 4)/(8 - 7)

Slope (m) = 1/1

Slope (m) = 1

Substitute m = 1 and (a, b) = (8, 5) into y - b = m(x - a):

y - 5 = 1(x - 8)

y - 5 = x - 8

y = x - 8 + 5

y = x - 3

The slope-intercept equation is: y = x - 3.

2. The slope of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals, therefore, the slope of the line perpendicular to the line that has a slope of -5 would be, m = 1/5.

Substitute m = 1/5 and (a, b) = (-15, 2) into y - b = m(x - a):

y - 2 = 1/5(x - (-15))

y - 2 = 1/5(x + 15)

y - 2 = 1/5x + 3

y = 1/5x + 3 + 2

y = 1/5x + 5

-1/5x + y = 5 [standard form]

3. Parallel lines have the same slope. The slope of y = 14x - 3 is 14. The line that is parallel to y = 14x -3 would also be, m = 14.

Substitute m = 14 and (a, b) = (-2, -7) into y - b = m(x - a):

y - (-7) = 14(x - (-2))

y + 7 = 14(x + 2) [point-slope equation]

4. y = kx

1.4 = k3.2

1.4/3.2 = k

The equation would be: y = 1.4/3.2x

Substitute y = 2.6 to find x:

2.6 = 1.4/3.2x

(2.6)(3.2) = 1.4x

8.32 = 1.4x

8.32/1.4 = x

The same honey is sold in two different size jars.
Large Jar 540g for £4.10
Small Jar 360g for £2.81
By considering the amount of honey per penny, work out which jar is the best value for money. Working must be shown.

Answers

From unitary method calculations, we have found that the large jar is the best value for money because a penny buys more honey.

What is the unitary method?

The unitary method is a method for solving a problem by the first value of a single unit and then finding the value by multiplying the single value.

We need to determine which has the best value for money using the quantity a pound can purchase.  

So, first for the large jar.

£4.10 will be purchase 540g of honey then,

£1.00 will be purchase xg

Then cross multiplying for x will be;

x = 1.00 (540g )/4.10

x = 131.7g

 

Hence for the large jar a penny will buy 131.7g of honey.

Now second for the small jar

£2.81 will be purchase 360g of honey then,

£1.00 will purchase xg

Now cross multiplying

x = 1.00 (360g )/ 2.81

x = 128.1g  

Hence for the small jar a penny will buy 128.1g of honey.
