Andy estimated that he would need 73 feet of lumber for a tree house project. He later found that the actual amount of lumber needed was 62 feet. What was the percent error of Andy's estimation?

17.74%

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for percent error is given as:

|Estimated value - Actual value|/Actual value × 100

From the above question:

Estimated value = 73 feet

Actual value = 62 feet

Hence,

Percent error = |73 - 62|/62 × 100

= 11/62 × 100

= 17.741935484%

Approximately , percent error = 17.74%

Therefore, the percent error of Andy's estimation is 17.74%

step-by-step explanation:

12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 7 hours.

4: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 3 hours.

this means that from 4: 00 p.m to 7: 00 p.m. this represents 3/7 of what was lost from 12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m.

after knowing this, after doing 11,600 - 6,800 = 4,800

4,800 represents 3/7 of what was lost for 7 hours.

we then divide 4,800 by 3 which gets 1,600.

because we know that 1,600 represents 1/7 of how much water was lost, we just have to multiply by 7, which gets 11,200.   after adding 11,200 to how much water was left at 7: 00 p.m. which was 6,800. 11,200 + 6,800 = 18,000

this means that the pool originally had 18,000 gallons in the pool.

you can also check your work by doing 18,000 - 4(1600), which becomes           1800 - 6400 which gets you 11,600.

the volume is the product of the area of the base, 3x(3x+4), and the height, 3x-1
