From calculations, we can say that the given tiles will not fit together perfectly.

<h3>How to find the sum of interior angles of a Polygon?</h3>

If the tiles join perfectly at a point, sum of all angles around the joining point should be 360°.

Expression for the measure of the interior angle of a polygon,

Interior angle of a polygon = [(n - 2) * 180]/n

Interior angle of a pentagon = [(5 - 2) * 180]/5 = 108°

Interior angle of a hexagon = [(6 - 2) * 180]/6 = 120°

Interior angle of an octagon = [(8 - 2) * 180]/8 = 135°

To prove that the given tiles fit together perfectly → Sum of all the angles around the common point should be 360°

Sum of all interior angles = 108° + 120° + 135° = 363°

Therefore, given tiles will not fit together perfectly.

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

The 110 degree angle is oppoiste to the angle across it.

Using PLT-C the other angle on the bottom of it should be 70 degrees.

since the 70 degrees is on a straight angle the angle beside it should 110

14(8)-2 = 110

Dave won a hot dog eating contest by eating 18 hot dogs in 10 minutes. He ate two more than twice the amount of the runner-up. W
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The correct anser is option

B. 2x + 2 = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of hot dogs eaten by the runner up be represented by x

If Dave ate 2 more than twice x, this means that the number eaten by him = 2x + 2

Since the total number of hot dogs eaten by Dave is 18

Therefore, the equation will be

2x + 2 = 18

So the number of hot dogs eaten by the runner-up is determined by solving for x

2x= 18-2

2× = 16

x = 16/2

x = 8

The runner up are 8

While Dave are

2×8 + 2 = 18.

1: a 24 ounce box of cornflakes cost $4.59?
mestny [16]
The unit rate for the 1st one is: $0.19 / ounce

The unit rate for the 2nd one is: $0.16 / ounce

The 36 ounce box would be the better buy because it is less per ounce than the 24 ounce box
