Answer:

144 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the formula (n-2)(180), where n = number of sides, to find the sum of all the interior angles in the decagon. Since a decagon has 10 sides:

(n-2)(180) = ?

(10-2)(180) = ?

(8)(180) = 1440.

Now, to find one interior angle in the decagon, divide 1440 by the number sides in our polygon (10).

1,440/10 = 144

= <u>144 degrees</u>

The glee club has 120 cupcakes to sell. they have decided to arrange the cupcakes in the shape of a rectangle such that the rows

DochEvi [55]

120 cupcakes
Even # rows
Odd # columns

12: 1, 2,3,4,6, 12 (integers?)

I see only one arrangement with odd column & even rows
3 columns, 40 rows
That's mainly because 120 is an even number.

Ajax is 5 and 1 fourth feet tall. His sister is 3 eighths foot shorter than Ajax How tall is Ajax Sister?

user100 [1]

Answer:

$4\frac{3}{4}$ feet tall

Step-by-step explanation:

Ajax is "5 and 1 fourth feet tall", which can be written as the mixed number $5\frac{1}{4}$ .

His sister is "3 eighths foot shorter", so she's 3/8 feet shorter than 5 1/4.

So, this is just a subtraction problem:

$5\frac{1}{4} -\frac{3}{8}$

To solve this, we want to convert 5 1/4 into an improper fraction, which is: $\frac{21}{4}$ . Now, we want to find a common denominator. In this case, that common denominator is 8, so $\frac{21}{4} =\frac{42}{8}$ .

Finally, we subtract 3/8 from 42/8: $\frac{42}{8} -\frac{3}{8} =\frac{39}{8}$ . So, Ajax's sister is 39/8 feet. Converting this into a mixed number, we have: 39/8 = 4 $\frac{6}{8} =4\frac{3}{4}$ .
