Given a regular pentagon,

Two sides of the pentagon are produced to form angle x.

Therefore, x is an interior angle

              

We know that the Sum of exterior angles of a pentagon = 360°

In a regular pentagon, all angles are equal,

Therefore, each exterior angle of a regular pentagon = 360/5 = 72 degrees

 

We also know that an exterior angle and its corresponding interior angle are supplements.

Therefore, each interior angle of a regular pentagon = 180 – 72 = 108 degrees

 

Therefore, x = 108 degrees

It is known that 10% of the calculators shipped from a particular factory are defective. What is the probability that exactly th
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:0.0081  or 0.81%

Step-by-step explanation:

The required probability is P(3,5,0.1)= C5 3 * p^3*q^2, where

C5 3=  5!/3/2=4*5/2=10

p is the probability that one randomly selected calculator is defective= 10%=0.1

q is the probability that one randomly selected calculator is non-defective.

q=1-p=1-0.1=0.9

So P(3,5,0.1)= 10*0.1^3*0.9^2=0.01*0.81=0.0081

C) P, Q, and R are prime numbers such that<br> 3 * P + 7 * Q + 15 * R = 102.<br> What is Q?
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

Q = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

3 * P + 7 * Q + 15 * R = 102

7Q = 102 - 3P - 15R

Q = (102 - 3P - 15R)/7

Try P = 2; R = 3

Q = 51/7 not an integer

Try P = 2; R = 5

Q = 21/7 = 3

Solution: P = 2; Q = 3; R = 5

Answer: Q = 3

Rewrite the equation 2x + 4y + 2 = 3y + 5 in general form. 
Anika [276]

General form of any equation is of the form AX+BY+C=0

Here A,B,C are three real numbers

THe given equation is

2x +4y+2=3y+5

To make right side equal to 0 we subtract 3y and 5 both sides

2x+4y+2-3y-5=0

Simplifying like terms

2x+y-3=0

Option B is the right answer
