A car is traveling down a highway at a constant speed, described by the equation d=60t, where d represents the distance, in miles, that the car travels at this speed in t hours. What is the constant of proportionality?
You get lost and stop at a gas station to ask for directions. The attendant tells you that your destination is "about 1 mile down the road". You drive to your destination, but you notice that, according to your trip odometer, you have driven 1.9 miles. What was the % error in the attendant's distance estimate?
( Note: We will temporarily ignore the sign for error calculations.
The correct answer for each calculation is an integerbetween 0 and 100, inclusive.
Do NOT enter the percent sign (%) or a minus sign (-). )
