Chang is estimating the volume of his bathtub the actual volume of his bathtub is 37 gal chang’s estimate is 31 gal find the absolute error and the percent error of Chang’s estimate if necessary, Round your answers to the nearest tenth

Solution:

Given that,

Actual volume of his bathtub is 37 gal

Estimate is 31 gal

Find the absolute error

Absolute Error = | Measured Value - Actual Value |

Absolute Error = | 31 - 37 |

Absolute Error = 6

Find the percent error

Substituting we get,

Negative sign means percent decrease

Thus percent error is 16.22 %

sum= when you add is how much the whole amount is

distance= when you use angles and it means how far it goes

step-by-step explanation:

answer set (b) 0.5, 3/4 80% is in order from least to greatest.  

step-by-step explanation:

in order to compare rational numbers to each other, it is much easier if they are in the same form.   typically, the best form in which to evaluate rational numbers is in decimals.   in order to convert a percent to a decimal, you would divide the given percentage by 100.   you can also accomplish the conversion by moving the decimal point over two places to the left.   for example, the decimal value of 80% is 80/100, or 0.8.   in order to convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator.   for example, 3/4 is 0.75.   so, for choice (b) 0.5 3/4 (0.75), 80% (0.8) is the only choice in which the numbers are in order from least to greatest.
