What is the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a pentagon?

1 answer:

5 0

Hi,

The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a polygon with x sides is equal to (x-2) times 180 degrees. A pentagon has got 5 sides, so the sum of the measures of its interior angles is 180(5-2) = 180(3) = 540 degrees.

I hope this helps. If I was not clear enough or if you’d like further explanation please let me know. Also, English is not my first language, so I’m sorry for any mistakes.

Answer:

$200\ families$

Step-by-step explanation:

Already, we are given 12% of our sample size as 24.

To find the sample size, we equate to find 100%.

Let sample size be denoted by $t$

$If\ 12\%=24\\100\%=t\\t=\frac{100\%\times24}{12\%}\\=200$

Hence, the sample has 200 families.

Marcus states that the polynomial expression 3x3 – 4x2y + y2 + 2 is in standard form. Ariel states that it should be y2 – 4x2y +

The degree of a polynomial is the highest power of its terms.
The power of a term is the sum of the powers of all the variables in a term.
A polynomial is written starting with the greatest power in standard form.
In the first case, the power of the first term is 3, the power of the second is 3 (2 from x + 1 from y) but the power of x has decreased so it is the second term, and then so on.
In the second case, the power is starting form 2 and then increasing to 3. This is incorrect.
Therefore, Marcus' suggestion is correct.
