Answer:
The percent error is 99%
Step-by-step explanation
Estimated weight of cat = 10 pounds
Actual weight of cat = 1375 pounds
We need to find the percent of error.
The formula used is: [tex]Percent\:Error=\frac{|Estimated\:value-Actual\:Value|}{Actual\:Value}\times 100[/tex]
Putting values and finding percent of error.
[tex]Percent\:Error=\frac{|Estimated\:value-Actual\:Value|}{Actual\:Value}\times 100\\Percent\:Error=\frac{|10-1375|}{1375}\times 100 \\Percent\:Error=\frac{|-1365|}{1375}\times 100 \\Percent\:Error=\frac{1365}{1375}\times 100\\Percent\:Error=0.99\times 100 \\Percet\:Error=99\%[/tex]
So, the percent error is 99%
