Answer:

See example below.

Step-by-step explanation:

To scale down by a factor of 1/10, multiply the side length or distance by 1/10.

Example:

If the distance was 5 then 5*1/10 = 5/10 = 1/2 is the scaled down version.

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$a_{n}=a_{1}r^{n-1}\\0=848(0.75)^{n-1}\\or~(0.75)^{n-1}=0\\0.75$

$or~n \rightarrow 1+\infty\\or~n \rightarrow \infty$

Hence lake will never be free of pesticide.

The sum of the measures of the interior angles in a convex polygon is 1,260°. How many sides does the polygon have?

gavmur [86]

The formula for working out the total interior is:

180(n-2) = 1260

So let’s rearrange by dividing both sides by 180 and find what n is:

n-2 = 7

Then let’s add 2 to both sides to find what n is:

n=9

Each interior angle is 1260/9 = 140°.
The sum of the interior angle and its corresponding exterior angle is 180°.

Therefore, the polygon has 9 sides. :)
