Time to paint the living room. The room measures 20 feet wide by 30 feet long by 12

chubhunter [2.5K]

The cost to paint the walls and the ceiling is $855

First, we need to find the area that will be painted.

The area of two of the walls is:

A = 20ft*12ft = 240ft²

The area of the other two walls:

A' = 30ft*12ft = 360ft²

The area of the ceiling is:

A'' = 20ft*30ft = 600ft²

We also need to subtract the areas of the two doors and the 4 windows.

Each door is 7ft by 3ft, so the area of each door is:

a = 7ft*3ft = 21ft²

Each window is 4ft by 3ft:

a' = 4ft*3ft = 12ft²

Then the total area that will be painted is:

area = 2A + 2A' + A - 2a - 4a'

area = 2*( 240ft²) + 2*(360ft²) + 600ft² - 2*(21ft²) - 4*(12ft²)

area = 1,710 ft²

We know that we need two coats of paint to cover that area, and the cost per square foot of paint is $0.25, then the total cost is:

C = $0.25*2*(1,710) = $855

The cost to paint the walls and the ceiling is $855

National polls are often conducted by asking the opinions of a few thousand adults nationwide and using them to infer the opinio

Valentin [98]

Answer:

Sample: few thousand adults

Population: all the adults

Step-by-step explanation:

A sample is a subset of the population, selected randomly.

In this case:

The sample consist of the few thousand adults selected to determine the opinions about the National polls.

The population consist of all the adults belonging to the said nation.

Consider an example about the new President election.

To determine which of the two candidates (say <em>A</em> and <em>B</em>) has a higher probability of winning the President election, the election society took a random sample of voters and asked who they think will be a better president.

The sample selected will be large enough, probably 10% of the population of all voters.

From this study it can be estimated which candidate has the higher chance of winning.

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

6% of the changes were from incorrect to incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the percentages must be 100%.

We have these following percentages

65% of the changes were from incorrect answers to correct

29% were from correct to incorrect

P% were from incorrect to incorrect

$65 + 29 + P = 100$

$P = 100 - 94$

$P = 6$

6% of the changes were from incorrect to incorrect
