Answer: The converse is "If a polygon has 5 sides, then it is a regular pentagon" and it is FALSE.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to state the converse of the following conditional statement and to determine whether it is true or false :

"If a polygon is a regular pentagon, then it has 5 sides".

We know that

the converse of a conditional statement "p ⇒ q" is given by "q ⇒ p".

Therefore, the CONVERSE of given conditional statement is

"If a polygon has 5 sides, then it is a regular pentagon".

The converse is not true, because if a polygon has 5 sides, then it is a pentagon, not necessarily a regular pentagon.

Thus, the converse is "If a polygon has 5 sides, then it is a regular pentagon" and it is FALSE.

If a polygon has 5 sides, then it is a regular pentagon
False: regular pentagon = equiangular. There are pentagons that have 5 sides that are not equiangular

Answer:

11%

14%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find a numbers percentage of another number you simply divide the smaller number by the bigger number then move the decimal point to the right 2 places.

Percentage of workers who prefer chicken soup who are part-time: 35÷500 = 0.07 move the decimal 2 to the right to get 7%.

Percentage of full-time workers who prefer mushroom soup: 55÷500 = 0.11 move the decimal 2 to the right to get 11%.

Percentage of workers who prefer lintel soup who are full-time: 25÷500 = 0.05 move the decimal 2 to the right to get 5%.

Percentage of part-time workers who prefer tomato soup: 70÷500 = 0.14 move the decimal 2 to the right to get 14%.

Hope this helps! :)
