The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is (n-2)*180, n being the number of sides.
a nonagon has nine sides, so the total of interior angles is (9-2)*180=7*180
this is a regular nonagon, so each interior angle has the same degrees:
7*180/9=7*20=140
the exterior angle=180-the interior angle=180-140=40
40 is the correct answer.
The answer that you should get is 5(5x^2- 24x +30)

Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
The Royal Fruit Company produces two types of fruit drinks. The first type is 65% pure fruit juice, and the second type is 90% pure fruit juice. The company is attempting to produce a fruit drink that contains 85% pure fruit juice. How many pints of each of the two existing types of drink must be used to make 80 pints of a mixture that is 85% pure fruit juice?
Answer: Let x be the number of pints of the first fruit juice (i.e 65%) and y be the number of pints of the second fruit juice (i.e 90%).
Since the total number of pints to make the 85% pure fruit juice is 80, it can be represented using the equation:
x + y = 80 . . . 1)
Also, x pints of the first juice = 0.65x, y pints of the second juice = 0.9y and 80 pints of the mixture to be produced = 80(0.85) = 68. Therefore:
0.65x + 0.9y = 68 . . . 2)
We have to solve equation 1 and 2 simultaneously, first multiply equation 1 by 0.65 to get equation 3:
0.65x + 0.65y = 52 . . . 3)
Subtract equation 3 from 2 and solve for y:
0.25y = 16
y = 16/0.25 = 64
y = 64 pints
Put y = 64 in equation 1:
x + 64 = 80
x = 80 - 64 = 16
x = 16 pints
Therefore 16 pints of the 65% pure fruit juice, and 64 pints of the 90% pure fruit juice is required to make 80 pints of 80% fruit juice.
