Aulo uses an instrument called a densitometer to check that he has the correct ink colour. For this print job the acceptable range for the reading on the densitometer is 1.8 ± 10%.

What is the acceptable range for the densitometer reading?

The range is from 1.62 to 1.98.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to solve for the percentage of the particular value if the range of the answer should be +/- 10% of the particular value.

The value given is 1.8, we thus want to find 10% of that: 1.8 * 10/100 = 0.18

Then, add this value to the original value of 1.8: 1.8+0.18 = 1.98

Furthermore, subtract .18 from from the original value of 1.8: 1.8-0.18 = 1.62

The range will be between these two numbers, so the range is from 1.62 to 1.98.

$450 is the answer.

step-by-step explanation:

30% of 450 = 135

450-135=315
