The percent error is calculated by taking the absolute difference between the expected value and the actual value, dividing it by the expected value, and then multiplying by 100%.
The expected value is $30 and the actual value is $19.75.
The absolute difference is |30 - 19.75| = $10.25.
So the percent error is (10.25/30) * 100% = 34.17%.
Rounded to the nearest whole number, the percent error is 34%. Answer: \boxed{34}.
