The minimum and maximum possible measurements.
Answer to Problem 22PPE
The maximum length of the onion cell is 0.45 mm and the minimum length of the onion cell is 0.35 mm.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The length of an onion cell is 0.4 mm to the nearest tenth of a millimeter.
Calculation:
As the length of an onion cell is measured to the nearest tenth of a millimeter, the greatest possible error is half a tenth of a millimeter, i.e.
Minimum possible length of the onion cell = Measured length − Possible Error
Maximum possible length of the onion cell = Measured length + Possible Error
The maximum length of the onion cell is 0.45 mm and the minimum length of the onion cell is 0.35 mm.
