Question

A delivery driver estimates his truck uses an average

of 22.5 gal of fuel per day. This estimate is within 4%

of the actual fuel the driver records each day for one

month

Answer 1

Answer:

18.5 - - - - NO

24.3 ____ NO

21.6 __ YES

26.5 ___No

23.3 ___ YES

Step-by-step explanation:

Estimate = 22.5 gallons

Error margin = 4%

Hence ;

4% of 22.5 = 0.9

Actual usage :

(22.5 - 0.9) = 21.6

(22.5 + 0.9) = 23.4

Actual usage is within (21.6 ; 23.4)

Hence,

18.5 - - - - NO

24.3 ____ NO

21.6 __ YES

26.5 ___No

23.3 ___ YES
