Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

1. 1080°

2. 36°

3. 27 diagonals

4. 140°

5. 7 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The sum S of the interior angles of a polygon is given by;

S = (n-2) x 180°

Where;

n = number of sides of the polygon.

Therefore, to get the sum of the interior angles of a polygon having 8 sides, we substitute n = 8 into equation (i) as follows;

S = (8 - 2) x 180°

S = 6 x 180°

S = 1080°

Therefore, the sum of the interior angles of a polygon having 8 sides is 1080°

2. The sum of interior angles of a polygon is given by;

S = (n - 2) x 180°

For a polygon which is a regular decagon where the number of sides n = 10, the sum is;

S = (10 - 2) x 180°

S = 8 x 180°

S = 1440°

Since the decagon is regular, then each of its interior angles is given by;

1440° / 10

=> 144°

Now, since we know that the sum of the interior angle and exterior angle will give 180°, then;

The exterior angle of a regular decagon is;

180° - 144° = 36°

Therefore, the exterior angle of a regular decagon is 36°

3. The number of diagonals N of a polygon with n sides is given by;

N = [tex]\frac{1}{2} n(n-3)[/tex]

So, for a nonagon which has 9 sides (i.e n = 9), the number of diagonals is;

N = [tex]\frac{1}{2}*9(9-3)[/tex]

N = [tex]\frac{1}{2}*9(6)[/tex]

N = 9(3)

N = 27

Therefore, a nonagon has 27 diagonals.

4. The sum of interior angles of a polygon is given by;

S = (n - 2) x 180°

For a polygon which is a nonagon where the number of sides n = 9, the sum is;

S = (9 - 2) x 180°

S = 7 x 180°

S = 1260°

Since the nonagon is regular, then each of its interior angles is given by;

1260° / 9

=> 140°

Therefore, the measure of each angle (interior angle) of a regular nonagon is 140°

5. The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is given by;

S = (n - 2) x 180°

So if the sum is 900, then to get the number of sides of the polygon, we substitute S = 900 into the equation;

900° = (n - 2) x 180°

Divide through by 180°

5 = (n - 2)

Solve for n;

n = 5 + 2

n = 7

Therefore, the regular polygon has 7 sides.

Answers

Answer:

61 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

He drove 732 miles in 12 hours. How many miles would he drive if it was 1 hour? (per hour) If we subtract 732 by 12, the answer would be miles per hour. 732/12=61 Therefor, his speed is 61 miles per hour.

Multiply the rational expressions 2x^2 - 4x - 6 x^2 - 4 ——————- • ——————— x + 2 2x^2 + 2x

Answers

Answer:

C =(x-3)(x-2)/x

or

x²-5x+6/x

Step-by-step explanation:

2x^2 - 4x - 6/x + 2 * x^2 - 4/2x^2 + 2x

Factorizing the given factors

1) 2x^2 - 4x - 6

= 2x^2 - 6x+2x - 6

= 2x(x-3) +2(x-3)

= (x-3)(2x+2)

2) x^2 - 4

= (x+2) (x-2)

3) 2x^2 + 2x

= 2x( x+1)

Putting the factors

(x-3)(2x+2)/x + 2   *  (x+2) (x-2)/2x( x+1)

= (x-3)(2x+2) (x-2)/2x( x+1)

= 2(x-3)(x+1) (x-2)/2x( x+1)

=(x-3)(x-2)/x

Now multiply

(x-3)(x-2) =x²-5x+6

Then the answer becomes  x²-5x+6/x

The system of equations above has solution (x,y). What is the value of x?

Answers

Answer:

x = 5.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve by substitution by substituting 2x as y into the first equation:

1/2(2x + y) = 21/2

1/2(2x + 2x) = 21/2

Simplify and solve for x:

1/2(4x) = 21/2

2x = 21/2

x = 21/4

x = 5.25

So, x = 5.25

Answer:

x = 5.25

step- by - step explanation

1/2 × ( 2x + y ) = 21/2 .............( 1 )

y = 2x ......................( 2 )

substitute the value of y in ( 1 )

1/2 ( 2x + 2 x ) = 21/2

simplify

1/2 ( 2 x + 2 x ) = 21/2

combine like terms

1/2 ( 4x ) = 22/2

Divide the numbers

1/2 ( 4 x ) = 10.5

divide 4 x by 2

4 x / 2 = 10.5

2 x = 10.5

divide each side by 2

2x/2 = 10.5 / 2

x = 5.25

Answer:

  A) r = d/t

  B) 221,760 ft/h

  C) 42 mi/h

  D) miles; the number is more comprehensible

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Given d = rt

Divide by the coefficient of r to solve for r.

  r = d/t

__

B) Fill in the given numbers to find the rate in ft/h.

  r = (665,280 ft)/(3 h) = 221.760 ft/h

__

C) Multiply by the conversion factor (1 mi)/(5280 ft) to convert to miles.

  (221,760 ft/h)(1 mi)/(5280 ft) = 42 mi/h

__

D) For this scenario, miles per hour is a better unit for speed. Many people have seen that speed registered on a speedometer, so have some sense of what it means. Often numbers outside the range of 1 to 1000 are beyond ready comprehension.

which number line models the expression -1 1/4 - (-1/2)

Answers

Answer:

option on c or under the first answer

C option number line models the expression -1 1/4 - (-1/2)

What is number line?

A number line can be defined as a straight line with numbers placed at equal intervals or segments along its length.

The numbers on the number line increase as one moves from left to right and decrease on moving from right to left.

According to question the given expression is  -1 1/4 - (-1/2)

On solving  -1 1/4 = -5/4 or -1.25

and we can write (-1/2) as -0.5

so the expression is simplified to -1.25 - (-0.5) = -0.75

Thus the correct option is "C"

Area of square base (side^2)

4^2 = 16 cm^2

Area of ONE triangular face (1/2 x b x h):

1/2 x 4 x 5 = 10 cm^2

Multiply that by 4 because we have 4 triangular faces: 10 cm^2 x 4 = 40 cm^2

9, 13, 9, 21, 18

Arrange the data values in ascending order.

9, 9, 13, 18, 21

Here, the maximum value is 21 and the minimum value is 9.

We know that,

[tex]\text{Range}=\text{Maximum value}-\text{Minimum value}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Range}=21-9[/tex]

[tex]\text{Range}=12[/tex]

The range of the data set is 12. Therefore, the difference between the shortest and longest fish is 12 inches.
