The label on a package of bolts says each bottle has a diameter of 0.35 inch to be in the package the percent error of the diameter must be less than 5% one but has a diameter of 0.33 inch should it go in the package why or why not

Respuesta :

The bottle cannot go with the package because the percent error is more than 5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Diameter of bottle on package = approx value = 0.35 inch

Percent error must be less than 5%.

Diameter of one bottle = exact value = 0.33 inch

Percent error = [tex]\frac{|aprrox-exact|}{exact}*100[/tex]

Percent error = [tex]\frac{|0.35-0.33|}{0.33}*100=\frac{0.02}{0.33}*100[/tex]

Percent error = [tex]\frac{2}{0.33}=6.06\%[/tex]

The bottle cannot go with the package because the percent error is more than 5%.
