you are being asked to find errors through the method of propagation of errors. Each answer needs to be in the proper uncertainty format. calculate the base error values

If f = a - b give the value of f with its error if a = 190 ± 8 and b = 10 ± 7.

A) f = _____________

B) ±____________

Solution

a)

f = [190 +/- 8 ] - [ 10 +/- 7]

b)

+/- = 8 - 7 = 1
