First calculate the total

8 bags x 3.5 cups=28 cups total

28 cups/ 12 hikers = 2.33

Each hiker will receive 2 and 1/3 cups of trail mix

What is the sum of the angle measures in a 22-gon?<br><br> 360°<br> 2,200°<br> 3,600°<br> 3,960°

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Option 3rd is correct

the sum of the interior angles measures in a 22-gon is, 3600°

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of the interior angles of a polygon of n -sides is given by:

$\tetx{Sum} = (n-2) \times 180^{\circ}$ ....[1]

As per the statement:

Given that:

n = 22-gon

Substitute in [1] we have;

$\text{Sum} = (22-2) \times 180^{\circ}$

⇒ $\text{Sum} = 20 \times 180^{\circ}$

⇒ $\text{Sum} =3600^{\circ}$

Therefore, the sum of the interior angles measures in a 22-gon is, 3600°

Consider the equation y = -2x + 5. Create a table of five ordered pairs that satisfy the equation. What is the y-intercept of th

Tatiana [17]

Answer: option d.

Step-by-step explanation:

To create a table of five ordered pairs that satisfy the equation, you need to give values to the variable "x" and substitute these into the function to find the corresponding value of "y":

For $x=-2$

$y = -2(-2) + 5=9$

For $x=-1$

$y = -2(-1) + 5=7$

For $x=0$

$y = -2(0) + 5=5$

For $x=1$

$y = -2(1) + 5=3$

For $x=2$

$y = -2(2) + 5=1$

Then, you can make the table:

<em><u>x</u></em><u> </u><u>-2 -1 0 1 2</u>

<em><u>y </u></em><u> </u><u>9 7 5 3 1</u>

To find the x-intercept, substitute $y=0$ into the function and solve for "x". Then:

$0 = -2x + 5\\\\x=\frac{-5}{-2}\\\\x=\frac{5}2}$

This is: ( $\frac{5}{2}$ , 0)

To find the y-intercept, substitute $x=0$ into the function and solve for "y". Then:

$y= -2(0) + 5\\\\y=5$

This is: (0,5)

You work as a sales clerk at a fashion boutique. The store is having a 20 percent off everything sale. Additionally, your manage

lubasha [3.4K]

Your answer is D.

The jeans are 40% off (because you add 20% more).

And the original cost of the jeans is $30.

You could have done:

30 · 0.40 = 12 (Find 40% of $30, then subtract 30 by 40% of 30 to get the new sale price]

30 - 12 = 18

1 - 0.40 = 0.60 (You subtract 1 by 0.40 to get 0.60, which is the % of the original price that you have to pay)

30 · 0.60 = 18
