A meteorologist forecasted that Friday’s high temperature would be 58°F on Friday the temperature reached 50°F what is the percent error the meteorologists forecast on Friday

Meteorologists 16% error in forecast on Friday.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Temperature Predicted = 58°F

Actual temperature = 50°F

We need to find the percent error.

Solution:

First we will find the Absolute error.

Now Absolute error is equal to Modulus of difference between Actual temperature and Temperature Predicted.

So we can say that;

Absolute error =

So we can say that;

Error = 8°F

Now to calculate Percentile of error we will divide to Absolute error with Actual temperature and then multiply by 100.

framing in equation form we get;

Percentile of error =

Hence meteorologists 16% error in forecast on Friday.

step-by-step explanation:

hans did not square the 40-unit side; he merely multiplied it by 2.   incorrect.
