Deon estimated the length of a room is his house to be 13 ft. The actual length of the room is 11 ft.
Find the absolute error and the percent error of Deon's estimate. If necessary, round your answers to the nearest tenth.
absolute error = [lt

Respuesta :

The absolute error is 2 feet and percent error is 18.18%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Estimated length = 13 feet

Actual length = 11 feet

Absolute error = Estimated length - Actual length

Absolute error = 11 - 13 = -2 feet

Absolute error = 2 feet

Percent error = [tex]\frac{Absolute\ error}{Exact\ value}*100[/tex]

Percent error = [tex]\frac{2}{11}*100[/tex]

Percent error = [tex]\frac{200}{11}=18.18 \%[/tex]

The absolute error is 2 feet and percent error is 18.18%
