If the acceptable percent error is 2.5%, then the amount it can be over or under 16 oz is 0.4oz.
16 + 0.4
16 - 0.4
16.4 is the greatest, 15.6 is the least
3x2(4x<span> – 3) + 1(4</span>x<span> – 3) </span>
You add 6+21=27 and then add 27+4 which equals 31
When we say an amount increased by some percentage, we usually mean that percentage is added to the original amount. In symbols, if there were V visitors in 2003, then in 2005 there were
V + 200%×V = 3V
visitors. And in 2007 (after 2 more years), there were
3(3V) = 9V
visitors. This represents an increase of
(9V -V)/V × 100% = 800%
The number of daily visitors in 2007 was 800% more than in 2003.
