An engineer estimated the weight of a steel beam to be 600 pounds. the actual weight of the beam was 639 pounds. find the absolute error and the percent error of the engineer's estimate. if necessary, round your answers to the nearest tenth.

Absolute error = 39 pounds

Percent error = 6.10%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the actual weight of the beam was 639 pounds while its estimated weight was 600 pounds.

We can find the absolute error by subtracting the original weight from the estimated weight.

Absolute error = 639 - 600 = 39 pounds

Next, we will use the following formula to find the percent error.

Percent error = (Estimated value - actual value / actual value) * 100

Percent error = 639 - 600 / 600 * 100 = 6.10%

square root of 36/6 = 2.449489743

square root of 16/6 = 1.632993162

square root of 6 = 2.449489743

the answer is square root of 16/6 because the square root of 36/6 is the same answer as square root of 6 = 2.449489743

your answer would be 12
