Answer: 30 degrees

This is the minimum amount of rotation.

Why this value? Well because 360/12 = 30

Consider a triangle with 3 sides. Specifically I mean an equilateral triangle. We can rotate it 120 degrees to have it line up with itself. Now notice that 360/3 = 120.

For a square, we can rotate it 90 degrees and we can say 360/4 = 90

So the general rule is that the minimum angle of rotation is 360/n, where n is the number of sides. This rule only works for regular polygons. Regular polygons have the same side length and the same angle measure (the side and angle measure won't necessarily be equal).

So going back to this 12 sided dodecagon, we have n = 12 and 360/n = 360/12 = 30 as the minimum angle of rotation. Each 30 degree rotation will have the polygon match up perfectly with its old image. The preimage and image will be identical.

What is the common difference of the sequence 8, 4, 0, -4, -16?
soldier1979 [14.2K]

\large \mathfrak{Solution : }

Common difference of an Arithmetic progression can be found out by subtracting the preceding term from that given term.

i.e

  • common \:  \: difference = 4 - 8
  • common \:  \: difference =  - 4

therefore, the common difference of the above Arithmetic progression is -4 .

The asking price for homes on the real estate market in Baltimore has a mean value of​ $286,455 and a standard deviation of​ $11
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

c)

Step-by-step explanation:

The asking price in Baltimore has a mean value of $286,455 and a standard deviation of $11,200; this means that most houses prices fall between $275,255 and $297,655.

Similarly, the mean value in Denver is $188,468 and a standard deviation of $8,230; most houses prices fall between $180,238 and $196,698.

The problem tells us that one home sold in each city where the asking price for each home was $193,000. In the case of Denver this would be expected (values usually fall between 180,000 and 196500 approximately).

However, the house in Baltimore is relatively farther from the mean than the one in Denver because the price is more than one standard deviation away from the mean.

Therefore, the correct answer is C. The house in Baltimore is relatively farther from the mean than the house in Denver.

Write a real-world example for -0.2 < -0.1 Please help!
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

Money

Step-by-step explanation:

This is really dumb, but a person can be in debt by 20 cents and another person by 10 cent; therefore, the person who is in debt by 10 cent obviously has to pay less than the person with the 20-cent in debt. Given these facts, the person in debt with one cent has more money then the person in debt with 20 cents.
