Answer:percent error in Joey's measurement to the nearest 10th of a percent =- 4.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Time as recorded by the stopwatch = 4.82 seconds

Real Time it takes for a Frisbee to fly through the air =5.05 seconds

percent error =   Measured value – True Value /True value  x 100.

= 4.82 - 5.05 / 5.05 x 100

=-0.23/5.05

=-0.0455 x 100

=4.5544%

Rounding to nearest 10th of a percent = - 4.6%

Of the 1,000 students in a local college, 420 own brand X mobile phones and 580 own brand Y mobile phones. Of these students, 80
rosijanka [135]
<span>If we were to put this in terms of a venn diagram, we would have 360 owning only brand X, 500 owning only brand Y, and 80 in between, owning both. Therefore, 80 out of the 580 owners of brand Y may have X as well, which we put into fraction form 80/580, and reduce to 4/29.

The answer is the fourth choice 4/29.


I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!

The lines y=3x-1 and y=ax+2 are perpendicular if a=___
mezya [45]

Answer:

a = \frac{-1}{3}.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of line in the form .

y = mx + c

Where m is the slope and c is the y- intercept .

As given

The lines y=3x-1 and y=ax+2 are perpendicular .

Here 3 is slope for equation of line  y=3x-1 and a is slope for equation of line

y=ax+2 .

Now by using properties of the perpendicular lines property .

When two lines are perpendicular than slope of one line is negative reciprocal of the other line .

Thus

a = \frac{-1}{3}

Therefore a = \frac{-1}{3}.

A square has a perimeter of 12x + 52 units. Which expression represents the side length of the square in units?
Xelga [282]

Answer:

Option (3) is correct.

side length of square is (3x + 13 ) units.

Step-by-step explanation:

For a square with side 'a'. Perimeter is defined as the sum of length of side. Since, Square has four sides. Thus Perimeter of square = 4 × side

Given square has perimeter = 12x + 52

Comparing both sides,

4 × side = 12 x +  52

⇒ Side = \frac{12x+52}{4}

⇒ Side = \frac{4(3x+13)}{4}

⇒ Side = 3x + 13

Thus, side length of square is (3x + 13 ) units.

Thus, option (3) is correct.

It takes 8 minutes for Byron to fill the kiddie pool in the backyard using only a handheld hose. When his younger sister is impa
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Let us say that the procedure of completely filling up the pool with water is called “1 job”. Therefore the rates of the equipment in doing the job would be:

<span>Rate of handheld hose = 1 job / 8 minutes                  ---> 1</span>

<span>Rate of lawn sprinkler = r                                             ---> 2</span>

<span>Rate of the two combines = 1 job/ 5 minutes               ---> 3</span>

So we are to find the equation to use, in this case, we simply have to add equations 1 and 2 to get 3:

1 / 8 + r = 1 / 5

Multiplying both sides by 5:

<span>(5 / 8) + 5 r = 1                                                               ---> ANSWER</span>
