Asource of variation that is inherent in a system and predictable is typically known as:

The right answer is common error.

A common error (or random error) is when, from one measure to another, the value obtained may be overvalued or underestimated in relation to the real value.

An example of a random error is the measurement of time with a timer. The error comes from the reaction time of the experimenter at start-up and at the end of the timer. Since this reaction time is not always the same, the measured value can be overestimated or underestimated. It is understandable that a repetition of the measures can alleviate the random error.

americans began to notice growing differences between the northern and southern sections of the country. there were more people living in cities in the north, which made it more urban. more people lived on farms in the south, which made it more rural. while many people were farmers in the northern states, there were now other ways to make a living, such as working in mechanical cotton gins factories manufacturing cloth, tools and other goods. people in the north supported high tariffs on goods imported from europe because the extra cost encouraged people to “buy american” instead. in the southern states, planters did not like tariffs because they sold most of their production to europe and bought their tools from there as well. southerners believed the protective tariff was something that only northern factory owners keep their profits high. so the southern politicians came up with an idea. they would opt out. they would simply ignore the protective tariff. it was ‘null and void’ in south carolina. the state would not collect the taxes on goods imported into south carolina, no matter what the president said they had to do. this decision led to the nullification crisis.
