Answer:

\frac{n(n-3)}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Polygon Diagonals are a pattern that follows a specific rule which can be used through a specific formula. Remember that Math focuses on patterns to create equations that help to study them, and this case is not an exception.

The equation for polygon diagonals is

\frac{n(n-3)}{2}

Where n refers to the number of sides of the polygon.

You see, a diagonal is defined as the union between two non-consecutive vertices. For a convex n-sided polygon, there are going to be n vertices, and we can draw n-3 from each vertex, then we multiply this by n, because that's the total number of sides.

In the end, we divide by 2, because with the method described, we will have double number of diagonals.

At Whole foods they mix two kinds of nuts: peanuts which cost $2.50 per kilogram and walnuts which cost $4.50 per kilogram how m
Allushta [10]

Answer: 37 kilograms of walnuts should be mixed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of kilograms of peanuts needed to make the mixture.

Let y represent the number of kilograms of walnut needed to make the mixture.

The mixture to be made is 100 kg. It means that

x + y = 100

The worth of the mixture is $3.24 per kilogram. It means that the total worth of the mixture is

3.24 × 100 = $324

peanuts cost $2.50 per kilogram and walnuts cost $4.50 per kilogram. It means that

2.5x + 4.5y = 324- - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 100 - y into equation 1, it becomes

2.5(100 - y) + 4.5y = 324

250 - 2.5y + 4.5y = 324

- 2.5y + 4.5y = 324 - 250

2y = 74

y = 74/2 = 37

x = 100 - y = 100 - 37

x = 63

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

graph like this:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, in 5 seconds, we know that he drinks 25 mL of slushy. We know this because 1 second is 5 mL, so 5 seconds is 25 mL. So, your graph should be going from the 5 second to 25 mL mark, then the 10 second and 50 mL mark, then the 15 mL and 75 mL mark, and so on.
