Answer:

The answer is any multiple of 36.

Step-by-step explanation:

A decagon has 10 sides, and it has 10 exterior angles of 36° as can be seen in the picture.

Therefore, by rotating the decagon about its center by multiples of 36° will carry a regular decagon onto itself.

Any multiple of 36 could be: 36, 72, 108, 144, 180, 216, 252, 288, etc...

A decagon has 10 sides so every 36 degrees, you would encounter another side.
So, the answer is a 36 degree rotation.

A fruit punch recipe requires 2 quarts pf orange juice to be mixed for every 5 quarts of apple juice. Max has 9 quarts of orange

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

22.5 quarts

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us find the ratio of orange juice to apple juice. The punch requires 2 quarts of orange juice mixed with 5 quarts of apple juice.

The ratio of orange juice to apple juice is therefore:

2 : 5 or 2/5

Max has 9 quarts of orange juice. By comparing with the ratio, this implies that:

2 / 5 = 9 / x

x = (9 * 5) / 2 = 22.5 quarts

He will need 22.5 quarts of apple juice.

Use the definition of the logarithmic function to find x. log4 0.25=x x=?

GREYUIT [131]

The answer is -1.

$log_4(0.25) =log_4( \frac{1}{4})= log_4(4^{-1} ) \\ \\ 
log(x^{a} ) = a*log(x) \\ \\ 
log_4(4^{-1} )= -1 *log_4(4) \\ \\ 
log_y(x) = \frac{log(x)}{log(y)} \\ \\ 
-1 *log_4(4) = -1* \frac{log(4)}{log(4)} = -1$
