The interior angle measures of a convex pentagon are consecutive multiples of 4. find the measure of each interior angle.

lawyer [7]

Answer:

100°, 104°, 108°, 112°,116°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smallest angle be $4x$ . Since, the interior angles are consecutive, the other angles are $4(x+1)$ , $4(x+2)$ , $4(x+3)$ and $4(x+4)$ .

Sum of interior angles = 540°

$4x+4(x+1)+4(x+2)+4(x+3)+4(x+4)=540$ °

$20x+40=540$ °

$20x=(540-40)$ °

$20x=500$ °

$x=(500/20)$ °

$x=25$

Using the value of x to calculate the angles:

$4x=4*25=100$ °

$4(x+1)=4*26=104$ °

$4(x+2)=4*27=108$ °

$4(x+3)=4*28=112$ °

$4(x+4)=4*29=116$ °

Which two tables represent the same function?

topjm [15]

Answer:

The 1st and the 5th tables represent the same function

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- There are five tables of functions, two of them are equal

- To find the two equal function lets find their equations

- The form of the equation of a line whose endpoints are (x1 , y1) and

(x2 , y2) is $\frac{y-y_{1}}{x-x_{1}}=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

* Lets make the equation of each table

# (x1 , y1) = (4 , 8) and (x2 , y2) = (6 , 7)

∵ x1 = 4 , x2 = 6 and y1 = 8 , y2 = 7

∴ $\frac{y-8}{x-4}=\frac{7-8}{6-4}$

∴ $\frac{y-8}{x-4}=\frac{-1}{2}$

- By using cross multiplication

∴ 2(y - 8) = -1(x - 4) ⇒ simplify

∴ 2y - 16 = -x + 4 ⇒ add x and 16 for two sides

∴ x + 2y = 20 ⇒ (1)

# (x1 , y1) = (4 , 5) and (x2 , y2) = (6 , 4)

∵ x1 = 4 , x2 = 6 and y1 = 5 , y2 = 4

∴ $\frac{y-5}{x-4}=\frac{4-5}{6-4}$

∴ $\frac{y-5}{x-4}=\frac{-1}{2}$

- By using cross multiplication

∴ 2(y - 5) = -1(x - 4) ⇒ simplify

∴ 2y - 10 = -x + 4 ⇒ add x and 10 for two sides

∴ x + 2y = 14 ⇒ (2)

# (x1 , y1) = (2 , 8) and (x2 , y2) = (8 , 5)

∵ x1 = 2 , x2 = 8 and y1 = 8 , y2 = 5

∴ $\frac{y-8}{x-2}=\frac{5-8}{8-2}$

∴ $\frac{y-8}{x-2}=\frac{-3}{6}=====\frac{y-8}{x-2}=\frac{-1}{2}$

- By using cross multiplication

∴ 2(y - 8) = -1(x - 2) ⇒ simplify

∴ 2y - 16 = -x + 2 ⇒ add x and 16 for two sides

∴ x + 2y = 18 ⇒ (3)

# (x1 , y1) = (2 , 10) and (x2 , y2) = (6 , 14)

∵ x1 = 2 , x2 = 6 and y1 = 10 , y2 = 14

∴ $\frac{y-10}{x-2}=\frac{14-10}{6-2}$

∴ $\frac{y-10}{x-2}=\frac{4}{4}======\frac{y-10}{x-2}=1$

- By using cross multiplication

∴ (y - 10) = (x - 2)

∴ y - 10 = x - 2 ⇒ add 2 and subtract y in the two sides

∴ -8 = x - y ⇒ switch the two sides

∴ x - y = -8 ⇒ (4)

# (x1 , y1) = (2 , 9) and (x2 , y2) = (8 , 6)

∵ x1 = 2 , x2 = 8 and y1 = 9 , y2 = 6

∴ $\frac{y-9}{x-2}=\frac{6-9}{8-2}$

∴ $\frac{y-9}{x-2}=\frac{-3}{6}======\frac{y-9}{x-2}=\frac{-1}{2}$

- By using cross multiplication

∴ 2(y - 9) = -1(x - 2) ⇒ simplify

∴ 2y - 18 = -x + 2 ⇒ add x and 18 for two sides

∴ x + 2y = 20 ⇒ (5)

- Equations (1) and (5) are the same

∴ The 1st and the 5th tables represent the same function

in a square garden plot (with an area of 400 sq ft)deer fencing priced at $1.50 per foot is to be installed around the plot. if

mina [271]

We have a square garden of 400 square foot.

The area of a square is:

$A=x^2$

where x: side length.

In this case:

$\begin{gathered} A=400=x^2 \\ x=\sqrt[]{400}=20\text{ ft} \end{gathered}$

The perimeter of the square is the sum of the lengths of the sides of the square. As they are all equal, we can write:

$P=4x=4\cdot20=80\text{ ft}$

The fencing is priced at $1.50 per foot. If we add the 7% sales tax to this price we get:

$C=1.50\cdot(1+0.07)=1.50\cdot1.07=1.605\text{ \$/ft}$

The fencing will be installed in all the perimeter (80 ft).

We can calculate the total cost by multiplying the sales price ($1.605 per foot) and the perimeter (80 ft):

$F=C\cdot P=1.605\frac{\text{\$}}{\text{ft}}\cdot80\text{ ft}=\$128.40$

Answer: the fencing will cost a total of $128.40

I PROMISE BRAINLIST; 5-STARS; THANKS!! IT'S VERY SIMPLE; BELIEVE ME!!!!!

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

2. B

3. C

4. B

5. D

Step-by-step explanation:

2) The sequence is multiplying by -2 each time. This means that it is geometric.

The next two terms would be:

$32*-2=-64\\-64*-2=128\\128*-2=-256$

This means that the answer is B

3) The sequence is being multiplied by $\frac{1}{3}$ each time. This means that it is geometric.

The next 3 terms would be:

$3*\frac{1}{3} =1 \\\\1*\frac{1}{3} =\frac{1}{3} \\\\\frac{1}{3} *\frac{1}{3} =\frac{1}{9}$

I am assuming that the answer is C and that you were unable to type the fractions.

4) We know that the common difference is 1.5, so that is the coefficient of our variable and the starting value is 15. This means that we can write an equation as follows

$f(x)=1.5(x-1)+15$

Now we can find the first 4 terms

$f(1)=15.0\\f(2)=16.5\\f(3)=18.0\\f(4)=19.5$

This would mean that the answer is B

5) We know that this is a geometric series, we know the common ratio, and we know the first term. This means we can write the equation as follows

$f(x)=4.5(10)^{x-1}$

Now we can find the first 4 terms

$f(1)=4.5\\f(2)=45\\f(3)=450\\f(4)=4500$

Unless you meant that the ratio was $\frac{1}{10}$ , the answer is D, none of the above
