Question

PLEASE HELP! I WILL GIVE 50 POINTS!!! A radar gun measured the speed of a baseball at 92 miles per hour. If the baseball was actually going 90.3 miles per hour, what was the percent error in this measurement?

Answer 1

1.883% error

`| (actual - guess)/(actual) | \\ | (90.3 - 92)/(90.3) | = (1.7)/(90.3) = .0188 = .0188 * 100\% = 1.88\%`

A radar gun measured the speed of a baseball at 103 miles per hour. If the baseball was actually going 102.8 miles per hour.
