The weight of a beaker is measured to be 78 grams, but the actual weight of the beaker is 82 grams. What is the approximate percent error in the measurement? A) 4% B) 5% C) 6% D) 7%

Answers

Answer 1

The approximate percentage error on the weight of the beaker is 5%

What is percentage error?

Percent error is the difference between estimated value and the actual value in comparison to the actual value and is expressed as a percentage. In other words, the percent error is the relative error multiplied by 100.

Error = Actual value - estimated value =

Actual value = 82g, Estimated value = 78g

Error = 82 - 78 which is 4

percent error = error/estimated x 100%

percent error = 4/78 x 100 which is 5%

In conclusion the percent error is 5%

1) WET SURPRISE A water balloon is launched off of a patio. The path of the water
balloon can be modeled by h(t) = -6t2 + 13t + 5, where h(t) is the balloon's height in feet and t is the time in seconds after the balloon is launched.
a. How long will it take for the balloon to splat on the ground?

Answers

The function of the water balloon is an illustration of a quadratic function.

The balloon will splat on the ground after 2.5 seconds

The function is given as:

[tex]h(t) = -6t^2 + 13t + 5[/tex]

When the balloon splats on the ground, the value of h(t) is 0.

So, we have:

[tex]-6t^2 + 13t + 5 = 0[/tex]

Expand the expression

[tex]-6t^2 + 15t- 2t + 5 = 0[/tex]

Factorize the above expression

[tex]-3t(2t - 5)- 1(2t - 5 )= 0[/tex]

Factor out 2t - 5 in the 2t - 5

[tex](-3t - 1)(2t - 5 )= 0[/tex]

Split the equation into 2

[tex]-3t - 1 = 0\ or\ 2t - 5= 0[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]-3t = 1\ or\ 2t = 5[/tex]

Solve for t

[tex]t = -\frac 13\ or\ t = \frac 52[/tex]

The value of t cannot be less than 0 i.e. negative.

So, we have

[tex]t = \frac 52[/tex]

Divide 5 by 2

[tex]t = 2.5[/tex]

Hence, the balloon will splat on the ground after 2.5 seconds

Amy is traveling across the USA by train over the summer. She is keeping track of all of the stops on her trip. She has just completed stop 8 and the map shows she is 20% complete. How many total stops are on her trip?

Answers

Answer: 40

Step-by-step explanation: if 8 stops complete 20% of the map 100% is 5 times that so 8x5 is 40 so 40 stops in total

The total number of stops in her trip is 40.

What is Algebra?

A branch of mathematics known as algebra deals with symbols and the mathematical operations performed on them.

Variables are the name given to these symbols because they lack set values.

In order to determine the values, these symbols are also subjected to various addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division arithmetic operations.

Given:

Amy has just completed stop 8 and the map shows she is 20% complete.

let the total number of stops be x

So, 20% of x = 8

20/100x= 8

1/5x = 8

x= 40

Hence, the total number of stops in her trip is 40.

The oblique prism below has an isosceles right triangle base.

An oblique right triangular prism is shown. The triangular bases have 2 sides with a length of x. The length of they hypotenuse is unknown. The distance from the 2 triangular bases is (x + 3). The vertical height of the prism is (x + 2).

What expression represents the volume of the prism, in cubic units?

One-halfx3 + x2
One-halfx3 + Three-halves x2
x3 + x2
x3 + 3x2

Answers

The volume of the prism, in cubic units is 1/2x³ + x²

The volume of the oblique prism is given as:

V = Base area * Height

Given the following

Height = x + 2Base area = area of the triangle

Base area = 1/2 (x*x)

Base area = 1/2 x²

Get the volume of the prism;

Volume of the prism = 1/2(x²)(x+2)

Volume of the prism = 1/2(x³+2x²)

Volume of the prism = 1/2x³ + 1/2(2x²)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

boundary line

When graphing, it can be useful to have the equation in slope-intercept form. You can get that by solving for y.

  4y ≤ -5x -4 . . . . subtract 5x from both sides

  y = -5/4x -1 . . . . divide both sides by 4

This tells you the slope is -5/4, and the boundary line crosses the y-axis at y = -1. The slope is the ratio of rise to run, so -5/4 tells you the line will go down 5 units for each 4 unit to the right. That is, points (4, -6) and (-4, 4) will be on the line.

line type and shading

The "or equal to" part of the inequality symbol (≤) tells you that the boundary line will be solid, not dashed.

The "less than" part of the symbol tells you that the values of x and y are less than those on the boundary line, so shading will be to the lower-left. The graph is shown in the attachment.

_____

Additional comment

You can determine the location of the shading by looking at any variable term that has a positive coefficient, and its relation to the inequality symbol. Here, that could be either of ...

5x ... ≤ ...4y ... ≤ ...

These tell you that x- and y-values in the solution set are less than those on the line, so shading will be left of (x<) or below (y<) the line. (In rare cases where all of the variable coefficients are negative, you can multiply the equation by -1 and reverse the inequality before you make this analysis.)

A patient is told to avoid caffeine for 8 to 12 hours before a blood test scheduled for 6 a.m. The blood test is reliable for up to 50 milligrams of caffeine in the bloodstream. The patient’s body metabolizes caffeine at a rate of 13% per hour.
a. At 10 p.m., the patient drinks a cup of coffee containing 150 milligrams of caffeine. Will the patient be ready for the blood test by 6 a.m.? Explain.
b. How many milligrams of caffeine could the patient have ingested at 7 p.m. and been ready for the blood test at 6 a.m.?

Answers

Using exponential functions, it is found that:

a) Since the amount of caffeine will be less than 50 mg, the patient will be ready for the blood test by 6 a.m.

b) The patient could have ingest 231 milligrams of caffeine.

A decaying exponential function is modeled by:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1 - r)^t[/tex]

In which:

A(0) is the initial value.r is the decay rate, as a decimal.

In this problem:

Caffeine metabolize at a rate of 13% per hour, hence [tex]r = 0.13[/tex].

Then:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1 - r)^t[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1 - 0.13)^t[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(0.87)^t[/tex]

Item a:

The coffee cup contains 150 milligrams of caffeine, hence [tex]A(0) = 150[/tex].

At 6 a.m., it is 8 hours after drinking the coffee, hence we have to find A(8).

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(0.87)^t[/tex]

[tex]A(8) = 150(0.87)^8[/tex]

[tex]A(8) = 49.2[/tex]

Since the amount of caffeine will be less than 50 mg, the patient will be ready for the blood test by 6 a.m.

Item b:

This A(0), considering A(11) = 50, hence:

[tex]50 = A(0)(0.87)^{11}[/tex]

[tex]A(0) = \frac{50}{(0.87)^{11}}[/tex]

[tex]A(0) = 231[/tex]

The patient could have ingest 231 milligrams of caffeine.

Answers

The sum in terms of p of four consecutive even integers with p been the smallest is 4(p + 3)

Even numbers are numbers that can be divided into two equal groups and they can be easily divisible by 2 without any remainder.

p is the smallest of the four consecutive even integers. This means p come first and it is the first term of the numbers.

Therefore, the 4 consecutive even integers is represented as follows;

p, p + 2, p + 4, p + 6

So the sum is equal to:

sum = p + p + 2 + p + 4 + p + 6

sum = 4p + 12
