Answer: \frac{3}{10} of the mural is sky blue.


Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the full portion of mural.

Since, \frac{4}{5} of mural is painted in shades of blue.

Therefore, the blue portion=\frac{4}{5}x

Also, Three eighths of the blue area is sky blue.

Therefore, the portion of the mural is sky blue=\frac{3}{8}\times\frac{4}{5}x

The portion of the mural is sky blue=\frac{12}{40}x

Simplify, by dividing numerator and denominator by 4, we get

The portion of the mural is sky blue=\frac{3}{10}x

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 3x + 1 and g(x) = x^2 - 6

(f + g) (x)

(3x + 1) + (x^2 - 6)

3x + 1 + x^2 - 6

3x - 5 - x^2

A large furniture company claims that 65% of all individuals who buy chairs from its stores choose wood chairs, 20% choose plast
Nataly [62]

Answer:

In the sample, 61% chose wooden chairs (4% less than that claimed by the company), 24.2% chose plastic chairs (4.2% more than that claimed by the company), and 14.8 % chose metal chairs (0.2% less than what the company claimed). Therefore, given that these are differences of less than 5%, we can affirm that these samples are consistent with what the company said.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a large furniture company claims that 65% of all individuals who buy chairs from its stores choose wood chairs, 20% choose plastic chairs, and 15% choose metal chairs, and to investigate this claim researchers collected data from a random sample of the companys customers, whose results were 305 wood, 121 plastic, and 74 metal, to determine if the data from the sample consistent with the companys claim the following calculations should be performed:

305 + 121 + 74 = 500

500 = 100

305 = X

305 x 100/500 = X

30,500 / 500 = X

61 = X

500 = 100

121 = X

121 x 100/500 = X

12,100 / 500 = X

24.2 = X

100 - 61 - 24.2 = X

39 - 24.2 = X

14.8 = X

Therefore, in the sample, 61% chose wooden chairs (4% less than that claimed by the company), 24.2% chose plastic chairs (4.2% more than that claimed by the company), and 14.8 % chose metal chairs (0.2% less than what the company claimed). Therefore, given that these are differences of less than 5%, we can affirm that these are samples that are consistent with what the company said.
