The measure of each exterior angle of a regular polygon is 72 degrees. how many sides does the polygon have?

1 answer:

6 0

If the measure of each exterior angle is 72, the measure of each interior angle is then 180-72=108
the sum of the interior angles of a polygon is (n-2)*180, n is the number of sides
(n-2)*180=108*n
180n-360=108n
180n-108n=360
n=5
the polygon has 5 sides.

How much is the number 727731000 in percent form

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

72773100000%

Step-by-step explanation:

"Percent" means "per 100" or "over 100". So, to convert 727731000 to percent we rewrite 727731000 in terms of "per 100" or over 100.

Multiply 727731000 by 100/100. Since 100/100 = 1, we are only multiplying by 1 and not changing the value of our number.

7277310001×100100=72773100000100

72773100000/100 is 72773100000 over 100 and means 72773100000 per 100. 72773100000 "per 100" means 72773100000 "percent" or 72773100000%

Therefore, we have shown that

727731000 = 72773100000%

Simplified Conversion:

Multiply by 100 and add the percent sign %

727731000 × 100 becomes 72773100000%

Shortcut Conversion:

Move the decimal point 2 places to the right and add the percent sign %

727731000 becomes 72773100000%

The error sum of squares is SSE=12.97

The regression sum of squares is SSR=6.430

The total sum of squares is SST=19.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear regression is a way "to modeling the relationship between a scalar response (or dependent variable) and one or more explanatory variables (or independent variables)".

Regression estimates are "used to describe data and to explain the relationship between one dependent variable and one or more independent variables"

The linear model is given by the following equation $Y=mx +b$ , where y is the dependent variable, x the independent variable, m the slope and b the intercept.
