What does the customary system measure?
U.S. customary is a system of units that measures the same things that the SI (Systeme International) system of units measure. U.S. Customary is different though, in the way it is derived. The SI system is based on 6 basic concepts, Mass (kg), Time (s), Length (m), Temperature (K), Luminous Intensity(lm), and Electric Current (A). Because mass does not change, SI is considered an absolute system. U.S. customary is based on the pound, which is a unit of force, similar to the Newton in SI units. Because force can change depending on various conditions, U.S. Customary is considered a derived system of measurements. For example, the U.S. Customary unit for mass is the slug. A slug is defined as the amount of mass that can be accelerated at 1ft/s2 by 1 lb. of force. A Newton on the other hand is defined in terms of kilograms, meters, and seconds. This is why if you weigh 150 lb., your mass is only 4.66 slugs or 68.0 kg, and therefore, 667.08 Newtons.
What do you measure you measure an object's temperature?
"What do you measure (when) you measure..." ? When you measure an object's temperature, you are measuring the amount of heat the object emits (gives off). There is no such thing as cold, only the absence of heat.

What is type of percent that compares the inaccuracy of an estimate to the actual amount?

What is the best unit to measure the amount that would fill a big aquarium gallons or kilograms or cups?
Gallons.
Which measure best describes the amount of water in a home aquarium?
The volume of water in liters or gallons is the best measure to describe the amount of water in a home aquarium. This measurement helps determine correct dosages for treatments, stocking levels for fish, and equipment needs such as filters and heaters.
What is the best metric unit to measure the amount of water in the pool?
Litres for a domestic aquarium, kilolitres for a large [public] aquarium.

What is the customary amount to tip an airport shuttle driver?

What is the customary amount to tip at a full-service gas station?
The customary amount to tip at a full-service gas station is typically around 1 to 2 per car.
Which SI units would you use to measure the amount of salt water in an aquarium the mass of a rock and density of a rock?
If you are trying to measure concentration of salt in water you would be measuring molarity which is moles / liter. Moles are equal to grams of salt / the MW of salt (and if you mean NaCl then the MW is 58.44 g/mol). Density is a ratio of mass to volume (mass / volume or kg/m^3)
Is it customary to tip a gas attendant, and if so, what is the appropriate amount to tip"?
It is not customary to tip a gas attendant in the United States. However, if you choose to tip, a common amount is 1 to 2.
