Answer with explanation:

It is given that, a scale reports a 15-pound weight as weighing 12.375 pounds.

The problem arose because , the staff or the working person,or some ignorant person who must be unaware of this machine has either by mistake or just to irk the person whose thing is getting weighed, must have changed the scale, due to that there is error in measurement of weight of that object or thing.

So,the option which demonstrates the statement correctly is:

Option A:

The Scale is both accurate and precise.

we know that

angle y and angle (5y-18) are supplementary angles
then
y°+(5y-18)°=180°------> 6y=180+18------> y=198/6-----> y=33°
and
angle x and angle y are also supplementary angles
then
x+y=180--------> x=180-y-----> x=180-33-----> x=147°

the answer is
x=147°
y=33°

A hovercraft takes off from a platform. Its height (in meters), xxx seconds after takeoff, is modeled by: h(x)=-2x^2+20x+48h(x)=

Ad libitum [116K]

the maximum height is the y-value of the vertex.

h(x) = -2x² + 20x + 48

$x = \frac{-b}{2a} = \frac{-20}{2(-2)} = \frac{-20}{-4} = 5$

h(5) = -2(5)² + 20(5) + 48

= -50 + 100 + 48

= 50 + 48

= 98

Answer: 98 meters
