Carry out the calculations each person is performing and give the correct uncertainty. a) A truck operator estimates the distance from a land fill site to a job site to be 9.4 km . He adds 0.5 km for travel inside the job site and 0.3 km at the land fill site. What are the combined distances and uncertainties?

\( 2 + ( - \frac { 11 } { 3 } ) ; \quad - \frac { 1 } { 4 } - ( - \frac { 5 } { 6 } ) - 3 \)

A seamstress is using an old cloth measuring tape marked with units to \( 1 / 8 \) of an inch, but the problem is that the old measuring tape has stretched and always gives a slightly larger measurement. The tape is used to measure the length of a dress pattern and then the same tape is used to measure the width of the same pattern. A length of \( 6 \frac{7}{8} \) inches is measured. a) What can you say about the degree of accuracy of the measurement? b) What can you say about the degree of precision of the measurement?
