Okay, so we've got a scale that's not really working properly.
00:03
It always shows 1 .8 pounds heavier than their actual weight.
00:10
But that's consistent.
00:12
It's always making that same error.
00:16
Okay, and then it weighs to the nearest 0 .2 pounds.
00:20
So plus or minus 0 .2 pounds.
00:23
All right, so we want to go through here and identify what types of error we've got here.
00:28
So for question number one, is this a random or a systematic error? it's actually a systematic error because you're getting the same error every time.
00:36
Random errors might mean that you're a little bit heavier, sometimes a little bit lighter.
00:40
Other times, systematic is the same every time.
00:44
So this is going to be a systematic error...
