Question refer to the following information.Performance Banner Company...

If the height of the logo is to match the height of the banner, it must have a height of 4 feet. Let x be the corresponding length of the logo.
Since the logo has a height-to-length ratio of 5 : 8: 5/8 = 4/x
Cross multiply: 5x = 32
Divide by 5: x = 6.4
Since the banner is 20 feet long, there are 20 - 6.4 = 13.6 feet in total for the side margins. If the logo is centered, then each margin is half this length, 13.6 + 2 = 6.8 feet.

Question refer to the following information.Performance Banner Company creates promotional banners that include company logos. The Zypz Running Shoe Company would like a 4-foot high and 20-foot long rectangular banner that includes its logo, which has a height-to-length ratio of 5 : 8.Performance Banner Company charges its customers $1.20 per square foot for the banner material, $2.50 per square foot of any printed logo, and $32 in fixed costs per banner. The Zypz Running Shoe Company is considering two options for the banner: one with a single logo, and another with two logos. If these logos are all to be the same size as described in Part 1, what percent of the banner costs would the company save by choosing the single-logo option instead of the two-logo option? (Ignore the % symbol when entering into the grid. For example, enter 27% as 27.) Correct answer is '25'. Can you explain this answer?

For other questions, you will consider how the passage might be edited to correct errors in sentence structure, usage, or punctuation. A passage or a question may be accompanied by one or more graphics (such as a table or graph) that you will consider as you make revising and editing decisions.Some questions will direct you to an underlined portion of a passage. Other questions will direct you to a location in a passage or ask you to think about the passage as a whole.After reading each passage, choose the answer to each question that most effectively improves the quality of writing in the passage or that makes the passage conform to the conventions of standard written English. Many questions include a"NO CHANGE" option. Choose that option if you think the best choice is to leave the relevant portion of the passage as it is.Question based on the following passage and supplementary material.Rethinking Crowdfunding in the ArtsCrowdfunding is a popular way to raise money using the Internet. The process sounds simple: an artist, entrepreneur, or other innovator takes his or her ideas straight to the public via a crowdfunding website. The innovator creates a video about the project and offers, in exchange for donations, a series of “perks,” from acknowledgment on a social media site to a small piece of art. Many crowdfunding programs are all-or-nothing; in other words, the innovator must garner 100 percent funding for the project or the money is refunded to the donors. At (1) it’s best, the system can give creators direct access to millions of potential backers.The home page of one leading crowdfunding site features a project to manufacture pinhole cameras on a 3-D printer. (2) The idea is obviously very attractive. An obscure method of photography may be made available to many with little expense. Within weeks, the project was 621 percent funded. In contrast, on the same page, a small Brooklyn performance venue is attempting to raise money for its current season. The venue features works of performance art showcased in a storefront window.Those who have seen the space consider it vital.(3) However, that group may not be large enough; with just fourteen days to go in the fund-raising period, the campaign is only 46 percent funded.Artists such as these Brooklyn performers find that crowdfunding exacerbates problems that already exist.(4) Work, that is easily understood and appreciated, is supported, while more complex work goes unnoticed.(5) Time that could be used creating art is spent devising clever perks to draw the attention of potential contributors. (6) In addition, audiences may contain many “free (7) riders,” they did not make contributions.Ironically, the success of crowdfunding may weaken overall funding for the arts if people begin to feel that paying for the art (8) loved by them is someone else’s responsibility.1. One innovative playwright has woven the deficiencies of the system into her crowdfunding model.2. Though the price for her tickets was higher than that of tickets for comparable shows, it was still affordable to most theatergoers—and reflected the real cost of the performance.3. She presented the total cost for producing her play on a crowdfunding site.4. Then she divided the total cost by the number of people she expected to attend the performance.5. The result of the calculation was the minimum donor price, and only donors who paid at least the minimum ticket price were allowed to attend the performance.6. By subverting the presumption that money used for her project is an altruistic donation, the playwright showed that (9) our work has monetary value to those who enjoy it. (10)Question (11) asks about the graphic.Q.At this point, the writer is considering adding the following sentence.Crowdfunding tends to attract contributors from a wide variety of professional fields.Should the writer make this addition here?

The most familiar biomolecular code is of course DNA, (1)serving as the chemical compound for the blueprint of life.

The science of genomics is developing better, cheaper, and faster ways to decode our DNA, and doctors are becoming more (5) apropos at using this information to create “personalized medicine.” Other researchers are learning how to turn the most rudimentary human cells, “stem cells,” into specialized tissues (6) for helping to repair damaged human organs. And oncologists—cancer specialists—are now coming to understand how the human immune system can be decoded to provide a crucial weapon against the most dangerous tumors.7 In particular, the success of these new biological technologies (8) depends on our ability in translating vast quantities of chemical information into digital form. Specialized software and hardware (9) is needed to be developed to turn biochemical data into information that doctors and researchers can use to streamline research and make patients lives better. Fortunately, the progress has so far been good. Since the Human Genome Project was completed in 2003, the National Human Genome Research Institute has monitored the cost of decoding a single human-sized genome. A famous law in computer science, known as “Moores Law,” says that the cost of processing a given quantity of information should decline by 50% every two years or so. In fact, with “second generation” sequencing techniques developed in 2008, (10) far more people have been able to take advantage of genome decoding.This integration of medicine and information technology is perhaps todays most promising scientific development. Using these new resources, perhaps (11) treatments and even cures for the most intractable diseases can be discovered by researchers.Q. Which of the following would not be an acceptable replacement for the underlined phrase?
