The table above shows a summary of 1,200 responses to a survey question. Based on the table, how many of those surveyed get most of their medical information from either a doctor or the Internet?

  1. 865
  2. 887
  3. 912
  4. 926

The correct answer is: 912


    63% of 1200 responses get their medical information from the doctor. 13% of 1200 responses get their medical information from internet. The total number of people that get their medical information from either a doctor (or) the internet.
    equals 63 over 100 cross times 1200 plus 13 over 100 cross times 1200
    = (0.63 x 1200) + (0.13 x 1200)
    = (0.63 + 0.13) 1200
    = (0.76) 1200
    = 912

    When designing a stairway, an architect can use the riser-tread formula 2h + d =  25, where h is the riser height, in inches, and d is the tread depth, in inches. For any given stairway, the riser heights are the same and the tread depths are the same for all steps in that stairway.
    The number of steps in a stairway is the number of its risers. For example, there are 5 steps in the stairway in the figure above. The total rise of a stairway is the sum of the riser heights as shown in the figure.
    Some building codes require that, for indoor stairways, the tread depth must be at least 9 inches and the riser height must be at least 5 inches. According to the riser-tread formula, which of the following inequalities represents the set of all possible values for the riser height that meets this code requirement?
