Answer:

He owned Cat for 5 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Owned dog for 9 years.

           Dog owned year is one year less than twice as long as he owned a cat.

Lets assume the years that cat has been owned be "x".

Now, finding the number years that Cat hes been owned.

As given, Dog owned year is one year less than twice as long as he owned a cat.

∴ using equation to find the Cat´s owned years.

⇒ 2x-1= 9

adding 1 on both side.

⇒ 2x= 10

dividing both side by 2

⇒x= \frac{10}{2}

∴x= 5\ years

Hence, Cat has been owned for 5 years.

Find the number of diagonals of a regular polygon whose interior angle measures 144 degrees?
djverab [1.8K]
Diagonals are = n - 2

Interior = 144

Exterior angle = 180 - 144 = 36

Formula for exterior of  a regular polygon given the number of sides:

= 360/n

36 = 360/n

n = 360/36 = 10

n = 10

Number of diagonals = n - 2 = 10 - 2 = 8

8 diagonals.
