Part A

60% of 6=3.6 lbs of fish for the eagle
25% of 105=26.25 lbs of fish for the bear

3.6+26.25=29.85 lbs of fish combined

Part B

25% of 115= 28.75 lbs

Percent increase= (new-old)/old x 100%

(28.75-26.25)/26.25 x 100% = 9.52

9.52% increase

Janice needs to re-shingle the roof of her house. One bundle of shingles costs $35.99 and covers 2.25 m2.
larisa [96]
To calculate the number of shingles, we first calculate for the total area of the roof of Janice's house. From the figure, we can calculate the area of the two shapes: pyramid and a rectangular prism.

A(pyramid) = lw+l√[(w/2)²+h²]+w√[(l/2)²+h²]
A = 208 m²
A(prism) = 2(wl+hl+hw)
A = 293 m²

Total area = 501 m²

Number of shingles she needs = 501 m² / 2.25 m² =<span> 223</span><span>

melisa1 [442]

Precision is a measure of how close a value is to the ideal value. In this case, we calculate the difference to know what is the closest to 4 g:

4.05 – 4 = 0.05

3.98 – 4 = -0.02

4.021 – 4 = 0.021

 

We can see that the value of 3.98g has the lowest difference and is therefore the closest to 4g. Hence the most precise is:

<span>3.98 g</span>
