1. First, you must apply the formula for calculate the sum of the interior angles of a regular polygon, which is shown below:


 (n-2) × 180°


 "n" is the number of sides of the polygon (n=5).


 2. Then, the sum of the interior angles of the pentagon, is:


 (5-2)x180°=540°


 3. The problem says that the measure of each of the other interior angles is equal to the sum of the measures of the two acute angles and now you know that the sum of all the angles is 540°, then, you have:


 α+α+2α+2α+2α=540°

 8α=540°

 α=540°/8

 α=67.5°


 4. Finally, the larger angle is:


 2α=2(67.5°)=135°


 5. Therefore, the answer is: 135°

A botanist predicts that the height of a certain tree will increase by 2% every year. If the height of the tree is now 50 feet,
Neporo4naja [7]
To answer this kinda question, we gotta tackle it year by year. 
By the end of the first year, the tree would grow by 2% = 102% of its original height.
Year 1: 102% x 50 = 51 feet
Year 2: 103% x 51 = 52.02 feet

Hope I helped!! xx

I have a question about polynomial division it is in the picture
Cloud [144]

To answer this question, we have to do the long division process for polynomials. We can do the operation as follows:

To do this division process, we have:

1. Divide the first term of the dividend by the first element of the divisor. They are:

\frac{-4x^3}{4x^2}=-x

2. Now, we have to multiply this result by the divisor, and the result will change its sign since we have to subtract that result from the dividend as follows:

-x\cdot(4x^2_{}-4x-4)=-4x^3+4x^2+4x

And since we to subtract this result from the dividend, we end up with:

-(-4x^3+4x^2+4x)=4x^3-4x^2-4x

3. Then we have the following algebraic addition:

\frac{\begin{cases}-4x^3+24x^2-15x-15 \\ 4x^3-4x^2-4x\end{cases}}{20x^2-19x-15}

4. Again, we need to divide the first term of the dividend by the first term of the divisor as follows:

\frac{20x^2}{4x^2}=5

5. And we have to multiply 5 by the divisor, and the result will be subtracted from the dividend:

5\cdot(4x^2-4x-4)=20x^2-20x-20

Since we have to subtract this from the dividend, we have:

-(20x^2-20x-20)=-20x^2+20x+20

6. And we have to add this algebraically to the dividend we got in the previous step:

\frac{\begin{cases}20x^2-19x-15 \\ -20x^2+20x+20\end{cases}}{x+5}

And this is the remainder of the division, x + 5.

As we can see from the division process, we got as:

1. The quotient: -x + 5

q=-x+5

2. The remainder: x + 5.

R=x+5

Since we have that the dividend = divisor * quotient + remainder.

Therefore, the result for this division is:

-4x^3+24x^2-15x-15=(4x^2-4x-4)\cdot(-x+5)+(x+5)

Find the intercepts.<br> . (-1,5) and (-3,-5)
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

x-intercept: (-2, 0), y-intercept: (0, 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find the equation of this line. The formula to find the slope is:(y1-y2)/(x1-x2). Substituting the real numbers for this formula, (5-(-5))=10, (-1-(-3)=2. 10/2=5.

This means that the slope of this line is 5.

To find the complete equation for this line, we just need to plug in the x-value and add whatever needs to be added to attain the y-value. (You can plug in any x-value/y-value available.)

5=5(-1)+?

-5+<u>10</u>=5.

The complete equation for this line is y=5x+10.

From here, the y-intercept is easy, because the number after the coefficient and variable (5 and x) are before the y-intercept (in standard form). The <em><u>y-intercept is (0, 10)</u></em> because if you plug in 0 for the x-value, you will get 10 as your y-value.

On the other hand, if you plug in 0 for your y-value and solve it out, you will get the x-intercept.

0=5x+10

-10=5x

x=-2

So the <em><u>x-intercept is (-2, 0)</u></em>.
