The greatest common factor is 18
2.5x1.30=3.25
4x4.50=18
2x3.75=7.5
3.25+18+7.5=$28.75 total price
2.5+4+2=8.5lb. total weight
28.75/8.5= 3.38 dollars per pound.
Short Answer: y = 36°
Remark
What an interesting question!! The first thing you have to do is find out what the interior angle of a regular pentagon is. After you have done that, you can calculate y.
Method.
The exterior angles of a regular figure add up to 360°.
Step One
Find out the size of the exterior angles of a regular pentagon.
There are 5 such angles. They add up to 360°
5x = 360 Divide by 5
x = 360 / 5
x = 72°
Step Two
Find out the value of the interior angles of a pentagon.
Method
The interior and exterior angles add up to 180°
Exterior Angle + Interior Angle = 180°
Exterior angle = 72 degrees
72° + Interior Angle = 180° Subtract 72 from both sides.
Interior Angle = 180° - 72°
Interior Angle = 108°
Step Three
Solve for y.
There are 3 tiles each with an angle of 108° that are placed together. So y + 3 interior angles = 360°
y + 3*interior angles = 360°
y + 3*108 = 360
y + 324 = 360 Subtract 324 from both sides.
y = 360 - 324
y = 36°

Rewrite the decimal number as a fraction with 1 in the denominator
0.225=0.22510.225=0.2251
Multiplying by 1 to eliminate 3 decimal places, we multiply top and bottom by 103 = 1000
0.2251×10001000=2251000
