A cyclist estimates that he will bike 80 miles this week. He actually bikes 75.5 miles. What is the percent error of the cyclist's estimate? Round the percent to the nearest hundredth if necessary.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The percent error of the cyclist's estimate is 5.63%

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentages

The cyclist estimates he will bike 80 miles this week, but he really bikes 75.5 miles.

The error of his estimate in miles can be calculated as the difference between his estimate and the real outcome:

Error = 80 miles - 75.5 miles = 4.5 miles

To calculate the error as a percent, we divide that quantity by the original estimate and multiply by 100%:

Error% = 4.5 / 80 * 100 = 5.625%

Rounding to the nearest hundredth:

The percent error of the cyclist's estimate is 5.63%

Answer:

x = 6

∠2 = 75

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given triangle two sides are equal and so it is an isosceles triangle. So, the angles opposite to equal sides are equal

11x + 9 + 11x + 9 + 30 = 180   {Angle sum property of triangle}

      11x + 11x + 9 +9 +30 = 180

                     22x + 48   = 180

                            22x    = 180 - 48

                               22x = 132

                                   x = 132/22

                                  x = 6

∠2 = 11*6 + 9 = 66 +9 = 75

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey! Pretty stranger :D

AsnwEr:

Number of girls in class = 15

GivEn:

The ratio of no. of boys to no. of girls in a class is 4:5.Number of boys in class = 12

To find:

Number of girls in class?

Solution:

☯ Let number of girls be x.

Given that,

The ratio of no. of boys to no. of girls in a class is 4:5.

Therefore,

→ 12/x = 4/5

→ x = 12 × 5/4

→ x = 60/4

→ x = 15

∴ Hence, number of girls in a class is 15.

Olivia filled 4 baskets of apples. Her friend filled up one additional basket of apples. if all of the baskets sold for a total of $160, how much money did each basket of apples cost?

Answers

Answer:

$32

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the question says that all the apples were sold for a total of $160, this means that you have to add the additional basket of the friend's to Olivia's. Since Olivia has 4 baskets of apples and her friend has 1, 4+1=5. Since you're trying to find the unit price for 1 basket, you take the total of $160 and divide it by 5 to find how much each basket of apples costed. Since 160/5 is 32, $32 is your answer.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (x, y, z) = (2, 1, -5)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are numerous equation solvers available on the web. The attached result is from one of them.

__

You may find it easier to solve these by hand if you eliminate fractions.

2x -y +z = -2x +3y -z = 10x +0y +2z = -8

The first step is to look to see what you have, then formulate a strategy for getting a solution. Because the equations containing y have opposite coefficients, one of which is -1, we choose to use those to eliminate y. Immediately, we will have two equations in x and z.

If  you multiply the first equation by 3 and add that to the second, then you will eliminate y. The third equation already has y eliminated, so you will then have two equations in x and z.

  3(2x -y +z) +(x +3y -z) = 3(-2) +(10)

  6x -3y +3z +x +3y -z = -6 +10

  7x +2z = 4 . . . . [eq4]

Subtracting the third equation from this eliminates z, so you have ...

  (7x +2z) -(x +2z) = (4) -(-8)

  6x = 12

  x = 2

Substituting into the third equation gives ...

  2 +2z = -8

  2z = -10

  z = -5

Then using the first equation, you have ...

  y = 2x +z +2 = 2(2) +(-5) +2 = 1

(x, y, z) = (2, 1, -5)

How do you solve this?
Look at attached file please...I'm really confused!

Answers

Answer:

X=18, Y=6

Step by Step Explanation:

This is a little long winded.. Let's solve for Y first.

First looking at the problem, you can note a few things. First of all, there is an Isosceles triangle, and there is an equilateral triangle. Where they connect, there is a 90° angle.

Now, all equilateral triangles have the same angle measurement. 60°. Now, if you look where the right angle is, it is showing a 60° angle, a total of 90°, and an unknown area. So simply subtract. 90-60=30. Divide that by 5, and you have your answer of 6.

Now let's solve X. X is very simple. On an isosceles triangle, the two top sides are the same length. And one of the top sides is the same size as the equilateral triangle. And on equilateral triangles, all sides are the same.

So the 11 transfers over to the X side. So let's make a small equation. 11=X-7. To make it even, let's add 7 to both sides. 11+7=X+7-7. Simplify to get 18=X, which is your answer.

X=18 y=6

180 - 102 = 78 degrees

then we just have to do 180 - 78 bc we have a straight line and straight lines are always 180 degrees

180 - 78 = 102 degrees
