Ahardware store owner is replenishing his stock of base paint for an upcoming home improvement sale. he conducted a survey to determine which paint finish customers prefer on living room walls. the owner asked both homeowners and professional building contractors. the results of the survey are shown in the two-way relative frequency table below. matte satin glossy total homeowners 0.08 0.20 0.24 0.52 contractors 0.04 0.26 0.18 0.48 total 0.12 0.46 0.42 1 approximately what percentage of contractors prefer the glossy finish? a. 34.6% b. 46.1% c. 37.5% d. 42.9%

C.   37.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

From the table, we know that the relative frequency of Contractors that prefer Glossy finish is 0.18, and the frequency of Contractors is 0.48. Therefore, contractors who prefer the glossy finish represent 0.18/0.48 = 0.375 or 0.375*100 = 37.5% of the total people surveyed.

y = 5x + 17

step-by-step explanation:

a perpendicular line will be the opposite reciprocal slope of the given equation.   the slope given is -1/5 so the opposite reciprocal is 5

find b:

7 = 5 (-2) + b

7 = -10 + b

17 = b

write equation

y = 5x + 17

vertical asymptote .

horizontal asymptote .

step-by-step explanation:

given function is .

vertical asymptote is given by setting

denominator =0

when degree of numerator and denominator are same then divide first term of numerator by first term of denominator to get horizontal asymptote.
