Question

What is the height intercept?(b) What is the slope of the line?185.5 cm/hours(c) What is the height intercept?(d) Assuming Laura started with an empty pool at time = 0 hours, you would expect the height intercept to be zero. Unfortunately due to error in measurements theintercept was not zero. Use the 5% Rule to calculate the height intercept error. What is the the height intercept error?(e) What would you expect the height of the water to be after 14 hours?

Answer 1

C) the height intercept would be 0 given the pool has no water at the beggining.

D) To find the vertical axis intercept error, we will need to use the formula

$Error=\lvert{\frac{vertical\text{ }Axis}{Largest\text{ }Value}}\rvert *100$
