Correct question is;
The medical thermometer commonly used in homes can be read +/-0.1 °F, whereas those in the doctor's office may be accurate to +/- 0.1 C in degrees Celsius, express the percent error expected from each of these thermometers in measuring a person's body temperature of 38.9 °C
Answer:
A) percent error in homes = 0.144 %
B) percent error in doctors office = 0.257 %
Step-by-step explanation:
A) Temperature is 38.9° C
Converting to Fahrenheit using the formula; (°C × 9/5) + 32
So;
(38.9°C × 9/5) + 32 = 102.02 °F
Since thermometer in homes can be read to +/-0.1 °F, then
Expected values = 102.02 +/- 0.1 = 102.12 °F or 101.92 °F
Since we want to find the error from °C, let's convert to °C.
We will use 101.92 °F.
Thus; 102.12 °F = (101.92 - 32) × 5/9 = 38.844 °C
Thus percent error = (38.9 - 38.844)/38.9) × 100% = 0.144 %
B) Temperature is 38.9 °C
Since thermometer in Doctors office can be +/- 0.1 °C, then;
Expected values = 38.9 +/- 0.1 = 38.8 °C or 39 °C.
We will use 38.8°C
Thus;
percent error = (38.9 - 38.8)/38.9) × 100% = 0.257 %
Mr. Sloan is purchasing 2.3 pounds of trail mix that costs $6.25 per pound. How much change will Mrs. Sloan receive if she gives the cashier $20. do it on rational numbers
Answer:
5.55
Step-by-step explanation:
The cost of the 3.4 pounds of trail mix is:
STEP 1:
multiply number of pounds purchased by price per pound
= 3.4 pounds * $4.25 per pound
= $14.45 total cost
STEP 2:
subtract total cost of purchase (step 1) from amount she gave cashier ($20.00)
= $20.00 - $14.45
= $5.55 amount received back from cashier

• Answer:
x = 2
• Step-by-step explanation:
AB = AC/2 = 16/2 = 8
AB = 2x + 4
8 = 2x + 4
2x = 8 - 4
2x = 4
x = 4 : 2
x = 2
Mitchell works at the local movie theater. He currently has $395 in his
savings account and he plans to deposit $30 in his account every week.
Define the variable and write an algebraic expression to show how much
money Mitchell will have in his account after any number of weeks.
Answer: 395+30x
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Mitchell has $395 now.
He saved $30 each week.
Let x be a variable that represents the number of weeks.
Since, Total amount = Current money + (Money save each week ) (Number of weeks)
Then, Total amount = (395 ) + (30)(x)
= 395+30x
Hence, the required algebraic expression= 395+30x

Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(- 6)(- 2x - 4y) , substitute x = 1, y = 3 into the expression
= (- 6)(- 2(1) - 4(3) )
= (- 6)(- 2 - 12)
= (- 6)(- 14)
= - 6 × - 14

Can u guys PLEASE answer this question ASAP. A fat cat that was initially 12 kg reduces its weight by 10% each month. How long does it take for the cat to be at least 6 kg lighter than its original weight? Give your answer as a whole number of months.
Answer:
It takes at least 7 months for the cat to be at least 6 kg lighter than the original weight.
Step-by-step explanation:
Use exponential decay formula:
A = P (1-r)t
A = amount decreased to
P = original amount
r = rate of decrease
t = time
6 ≥ 12 (1-0.10)t divide both sides by 12
0.5 ≥ (0.9)t take log of both sides
log (0.5) ≥ log (0.9)t power rule of logs lets the exponent t drop to front of log to become a factor
log (0.5) ≥ t log(0.9) divide both sides by log(0.9) which is negative so reverse the inequality sign
log (0.5) / log (0.9) ≤ t use calculator
6.57 ≤ t
It takes at least 7 months for the cat to be at least 6 kg lighter that original weight.
check:
12 (0.9)7≈ 5.73
12 (0.9)6 ≈ 6.37
suppose that Y varies directly with X andY equals 12 when X equals -2 what is X when Y equals -6
Answer:
[tex]x=1[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
A direct variation equation has the following format:
[tex]y=kx[/tex]
Where k is a constant.
We know that y is 12 when x is -2. Thus, substitute:
[tex]12=-2k[/tex]
Divide both sides by -2:
[tex]k=-6[/tex]
So, our direct variation equations is:
[tex]y=-6x[/tex]
To find what x is when y equals -6, substitute in -6 for y:
[tex]-6=-6x[/tex]
Divide both sides by -6:
[tex]x=1[/tex]
So, our answer is 1 :)
use this information for items 1-3. Aaron has $65 to rent a bike in the city . It costs $15 per hour to rent a bike. The additional fee for a helmet is $3 for the entire ride
Answer:
You will ride for 4 hrs 8minStep-by-step explanation:
What we are expected to solve for that the problem did not expressly state is most likely the number of hours that you could ride for an amount of $65.
firstly we need to model the inequality (equation) for this scenario.
the constant fee= $3 additional fee for helmet
[tex]3+15n\leq 65\\\\[/tex]
We can now solve for n since the above inequality satisfies the condition presented in the problem statement.
[tex]3+15n\leq 65\\\\15n\leq65-3\\\\ 15n\leq 62[/tex]
Divide both sides by 15 to find n
[tex]n\leq 62/15\\\\n\leq 4hrs -8min[/tex]
Solve for x: -1 < x + 3 < 5

solve 1/2(16x-8)=2(x+16)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3x+4=31
subtract 4 on both sides That gives you
3x=27
now divide 27 by 3
that gives you X=9
———————————————-
3(2x+1)
you distribute 3 into the parentheses
so 3 x 2x is 6x 3x1 is 3
so its 6x+3
————————————————
1/2(16x-8)=2(x+16)
first you distribute 1/2 into the parentheses on the left side and distribute 2 into the parentheses on the right
which gives you 8x-4=2x+32
then you combine like terms 8x+2x is 10x and -4+32 is 28
so you answer to this one is 10x+28
Solve for t.
Speed (Velocity)
V = d/t
Answer:
t = d/V
Step-by-step explanation:
V = d/t
Multiply each side by t
Vt = d/t *t
Vt = d
Divide each side by V
Vt/V = d/V
t = d/V
Solve for t 4/3 = t/7
Answer:
t=28/3

Answer:
a) (-2, -1)
b) (-3, 0) and (-1, 0)
Step-by-step explanation:
The turning point is the same as the vertex of the graph.
The vertex would be (-2, -1).
The zeros of the equation would be where the graph crosses the x-axis when y = 0.
The roots would be (-3, 0) and (-1, 0).
ax+b=c for x how do I solve this can someone help explain it to me.
Answer:
x= c - b / A
please look at the step by step explanation to better understand :)
Step-by-step explanation:
subtract b from the left side and right side
so you are left with Ax = c - b
divide what number c - b is by A
and you are left with x= c - b / A

write a step by step proof. the givens are c is the midpoint of segment AB, and point c measures 10cm. prove AC=5cm plz help will mark brainliest
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
GIRL! You should add diagrams to these types of questions. It would really help
That 10cm does not mean point C is 10cm. It means the line AB is 10 cm in total.
And since point C is the midpoint, which means that point C cuts the line AB in half, that makes AC = 5cm

Ms. Ciervo is making cupcakes. She has 9 2/3 teaspoons of vanilla. Each cupcake needs to have -1/3 teaspoon of vanilla. How many cupcakes can she make?
Answer:
The number cupcakes Ms. Ciervo can make using the [tex]9 \frac{2}{3}[/tex] teaspoons of vanilla is 29.
Step-by-step explanation:
The information provided is:
Ms. Ciervo has [tex]9 \frac{2}{3}[/tex] teaspoons of vanilla. Each cupcake needs to have [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] teaspoon of vanilla.Compute the number cupcakes Ms. Ciervo can make using the [tex]9 \frac{2}{3}[/tex] teaspoons of vanilla as follows:
Amount of vanilla required for one cupcake = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] teaspoons
Total amount of vanilla available [tex]9 \frac{2}{3}[/tex] teaspoons.
[tex]\text{number of cupcakes}=\frac{\text{total amount}}{\text{amount required for 1 cupcake}}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{9\frac{2}{3}}{\frac{1}{3}}\\\\=\frac{29}{3}\div\frac{1}{3}\\\\=\frac{29}{3}\times \frac{3}{1}\\\\=29[/tex]
Thus, the number cupcakes Ms. Ciervo can make using the [tex]9 \frac{2}{3}[/tex] teaspoons of vanilla is 29.

Aliyah wants to estimate the value of the quotient of 5.68 x 10- and 8.54 x 10 Which statement about the value is true?
The value will be greater than 1 because (-3)+(-9) is a positive number. A number in scientific notation with a
positive exponent has a value greater than 1.
The value will be greater than 1 because (-3)-(-9) - 6. A number in scientific notation with a positive exponent is
greater than 1.
The value will be less than 1 because 5.88 - 8.54 is less than 1. The negative exponents will make it even smaller.
The number will be less than 1 because 5.68 x 10- is a very small number and division always makes the size of a
number smaller.
Answer:
B-The value will be greater than 1 because (negative 3) minus (negative 9) = 6. A number in scientific notation with a positive exponent is greater than 1.
