Katie has been given a project to make a model car that is 45 centimeters long. The teacher has told her that variations in length of up to 2

centimeters are acceptable.

Match the lengths with the descriptions.

43 centimeters

2 centimeters

45 centimeters

49 centimeters

47 centimeters

absolute error

desirable length

minimum length

maximum length

The absolute error = 2 centimeters.

The desirable length = 45 cm

The minimum length = 43 cm.

The maximum length = 47 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Katie has been given a project to make a model car that is 45 centimeters long. The teacher has told her that variations in the length of up to 2 centimeters are acceptable.

Therefore, the absolute error = 2 centimeters.

The desirable length = 45 cm

The minimum length = (45 - 2) = 43 cm.

The maximum length = (45 + 2) = 47 cm. (Answer)
