What is the equation for accuracy?
%error = (Actual value- Measured value) / actual value *100
How close a measured quantity is to the actual or known value?
Accuracy
What does a negative percentage error means?
A percentage error is 100*(measurement - true value)/true valueThe percentage error is negative if the measured (or calculated) value is smaller that the true value.
What is the absolute error for 56 - 0.70?
55.3
Positive and negative angles?
In the Cartesian plane, an angle is measured in the anti-clockwise direction from the x-axis. A negative angle is measured in the clockwise direction from the x-axis. However, an angle is effectively the same if you add or subtract 360 degrees. So, if you are faced with a negative angle just keep adding 360 degrees until you have a positive value.
What is the equation for accuracy?
%error = (Actual value- Measured value) / actual value *100
Define percentage error?
an error is the difference between a predicted value and the actual value. % errors tell you how close or how far you came to the actual answer is the form of a percentage. Mathematically: [(accepted value-measured value) / accepted lValue] * 100% note: if your answer is negative it means you were, for example, 15% short of the actual answer
Why inductance value is negative?
Inductance is not negative. It is measured in henrys, and that is a positive value. Inductive reactance, however, is measured in ohms, and is commonly shown as negative to indicate that the current lags the voltage.

What is the absolute value always measured in?
Non-negative real numbers.
What does it mean if you get a negative number when you calculate for percent error?
Depending on whether you subtract actual value from expected value or other way around, a positive or negative percent error, will tell you on which side of the expected value that your actual value is. For example, suppose your expected value is 24, and your actual value is 24.3 then if you do the following calculation to figure percent error:[percent error] = (actual value - expected value)/(actual value) - 1 --> then convert to percent.So you have (24.3 - 24)/24 -1 = .0125 --> 1.25%, which tells me the actual is higher than the expected. If instead, you subtracted the actual from the expected, then you would get a negative 1.25%, but your actual is still greater than the expected. My preference is to subtract the expected from the actual. That way a positive error tells you the actual is greater than expected, and a negative percent error tells you that the actual is less than the expected.
Is how close a unit is to the actual value of what is being measured?
ask Oprah! hahahahar
What does a negative percentage error means?
A percentage error is 100*(measurement - true value)/true valueThe percentage error is negative if the measured (or calculated) value is smaller that the true value.
What level of closeness between a measured quantity and the actual or standard value?
It's the similarity I think.
How closely a measured value matches the actual value is precision?
You think probable to the accuracy (in the English terminology); and this value is determined exparimentally in each case.
How are negative integers measured?
Typically, negative numbers could be "measured" by the difference between the number and another number. The magnitude of a negative number is the distance from zero. Essentially, remove the minus sign, and you have the magnitude (also called absolute value) of the number.
What is a Systematic?
Systematic error is the difference between the actual value of what is being measured and the value you found. The results of systematic error are precise but not accurate.
