26% of all the employees attend night school

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

  • Within a computer service company, 20 percent of the male employees and 30 percent of the female employees attend night school
  • 40 percent of all employees are male

We need to find what percent of all the employees attend night school

Assume that the number of all employees is x

∵ The company has x employees

∵ 40 percent of all employees are male

- Find 40% of x

∵ 40% × x = \frac{40}{100} × x = 0.4 x

∴ The number of the male employees is 0.4 x

- Subtract 0.4 x from x to find the number of the female employees

∵ The number of female employees = x - 0.4 x = 0.6 x

∴ The number of the female employees is 0.6 x

∵ 20 percent of the male employees attend night school

- Multiply 20% by 0.4 x to find the number of male employees

   who attend night school

∴ The number of male who attend night school = 20% × 0.4 x

∴ The number of male who attend night school = \frac{20}{100} × 0.4 x

∴ The number of male who attend night school = 0.08 x

∵ 30 percent of the female employees attend night school

- Multiply 30% by 0.6 x to find the number of female employees

   who attend night school

∴ The number of female who attend night school = 30% × 0.6 x

∴ The number of male who attend night school = \frac{30}{100} × 0.6 x

∴ The number of male who attend night school = 0.18 x

Add the number of male and female who attend night school

∵ 0.08 x + 0.18 x = 0.26 x

∴ The number of male and female who attend night school is 0.26 x

- Find the percentage of 0.26 x of x

∵ \frac{0.26x}{x} × 100% = 26%

∴ 26% of all the employees attend night school

26% of all the employees attend night school

Answer:

  g(x) = (1/6)(x +7)^2 -8

Step-by-step explanation:

The transformation ...

  g(x) = a·f(x -h) +k

represents vertical scaling by a factor of 'a', right shift by h units, and up shift by k units. You want the function g(x) for f(x) = x^2, a = 1/6, h = -7, and k = -8. Those transformations give you ...

  g(x) = (1/6)(x +7)^2 -8
