You measure a piece of rope and find its length to be 12 m. find the percent error of this measurement. round to the nearest hundredth. 4.17% 0.42% 0.17% 1%

Hence, the percent error is:

4.17%

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that:

We measure a piece of rope and find its length to be 12 m.

As we know that the error of measure is 0.5 of the actual length i.e. the length of a rope may vary by 0.5

i.e. the length of a rope may be between 12-0.5 to 12+0.5

i.e. between 11.5 m to 12.5 m.

Hence, the percent error is calculated as:

Hence, the percent error is:

4.17%

for every hour i deducted .5 inches from the length of the candle

part b

it is a function because for every x value there is only one y value

part   c

for every x value there is only one y value
