The proper air pressure for Caitlin bicycle tire is 30 pounds psi the percent erroe in Catlin current tire is 15% what are the possible current tires pressure for Catlin tirez
The percent error formula is:
Percent Error = |(measured value - true value) / true value| * 100%
Given that the correct tire pressure is 30 psi and the percent error is 15%, we can rearrange the formula to solve for the measured value (current tire pressure):
15% = |(measured value - 30) / 30| * 100%
0.15 = |measured value - 30| / 30
0.15 * 30 = |measured value - 30|
4.5 = |measured value - 30|
measured value - 30 = 4.5 or measured value - 30 = -4.5
measured value = 34.5 or 25.5
Therefore, the possible current tire pressures for Caitlin's bicycle tire are 34.5 psi or 25.5 psi.
