Jordan estimated that his paper airplane would fly 42 feet. It actually traveled 50 feet. What was the percent error?

Respuesta :

[tex] \huge \mathcal{ Answer࿐}[/tex]

  • Error (e) = 50 - 42 = 8 feet

  • assumed value (a) = 42 feet

[tex] \boxed{ \mathrm{ \% \: error = \dfrac{error}{assumed \: value} \times 100}}[/tex]

  • [tex] \mathrm{ \% \: error =\dfrac{8}{42}} \times 100[/tex]

  • [tex] \mathrm{ \% \: error = \dfrac{800}{42} }[/tex]

  • [tex]\mathrm{ \% \: error = 19.04 \%}[/tex]
