General Idea:

The measure of one of the central angles of a regular Polygon ( $\theta$ ) can be used using the below formula:

$\theta= \frac{360^{\circ}}{n} \\\\Where: \\\; n\; is\; number\; of\; sides\; of\; regular\; polygon$

Applying the concept:

The measure of one of the central angles of a regular octagon.

The octagon have 8 sides, using the above formula we get...

$\theta= \frac{360}{n} \\\\\theta = \frac{360}{8} = 45^{\circ}$

Conclusion:

The correct option is A) 45 degrees

zaharov [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the order of operations to solve the equation

7×8+1×40

multiplication before addition, so we do this first:

7×8=56

We change the equation to this:

56+1×40

Then we multiply:

1×40=40

We change the equation to this:

56+40

Then we add to solve:

56+40=96

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

1.3125

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that our random variable $X$ follows a Poisson distribution $P(X=k)=\frac{\lambda^k e^-^p}{k!} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ p=\lambda$

Evaluate the formula at $k=2,3:$

$P(X=2)=0.5\lambda^2e^{-\lambda}\\\\P(X=3)=\frac{1}{6}\lambda^2e^{-\lambda}$

#since

$4P(X=2)=P(X=3);\\\\0.5\lambda^2e^{-\lambda}=4\times\frac{1}{6}\lambda^3e^{-\lambda}\\\\0.5\lambda^2=\frac{2}{3}\lambda^3\\\\0.75=\lambda$

The mean and variance of the Poisson distributed random variable is equal to $\lambda$ :

$\mu=\lambda=0.75\\\sigma ^2=\lambda=0.75$

#By property variance:

$\sigma ^2=V(X)=E(X^2)-(E(X))^2=E(X^2)\\\\E(X^2)=\sigma^2+\mu^2=0.75+0.75^2=1.3125$

The expectation is 1.3125

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the angles be 4x , 5x

4x + 5x = 180 { supplementary}

9x = 180

x = 180/9

x = 20

Larger angle= 5x = 5* 20 = 100
