Mathematics
1 answer:
SSSSS [86.1K]3 years ago
8 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw lines from one vertex to the other vertices, splitting the polygon into triangles.  If the polygon has n sides, there will be n−2 triangles.  Each triangle's angles add up to 180°.  So the sum of all the interior angles is:

S = (n−2) 180°

Answer:

C 44.59

Step-by-step explanation:

The first two shirts are full price

2*49.96 = 99.92

The third shirt is 50% off.  That means it is 50% of the original price

.5*49.96 = 24.98

The total cost before tax is

99.92+24.98 =124.90

tax = cost * tax rate

tax = 124.90*.071

tax=8.87

Add this to the cost

final cost = 124.90+8.87

                =133.77

We want to find the mean cost (average cost)

Take the total cost and divide by the number of shirts

133.77/3 =44.59
