The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is 9x². If x is 3 greater than the number of side of the polygon, how many sides does the polygon have?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

17

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a very neat problem -- for teachers.

Let the number of sides = y

The sum of the interior angles is 180*(y - 2)

We are told that this sum equals 9x^2

So far the equation is

(y - 2)*180 = 9x^2                   Divide both sides by 9

(y - 2)*20 = x^2                       Remove the brackets on the left.

20*y - 40 = x^2

We need another fact. We get that from the statement that x is three greater than the number of sides (y). Therefore y = x - 3

20*(x - 3) - 40 = x^2

20x - 60 - 40 = x^2       Combine like terms on the left

20x - 100 = x^2             Bring the left side to the right side.

0 = x^2 - 20x + 100      You have a quadratic.

a = 1

b = - 20

c = 100

When you solve the quadratic equation, you get

x = 20

Therefore the number of sides is 17.

If the computer costs $2150 and Melissa puts
$150 away each month, how long will it take her
to save enough money to buy the computer?

Answers

Answer:

14 months and 1/3 of a month

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find how many months it will take by dividing the cost by the amount she puts away each month:

2150/150 = 14.33

So, it will take her 14 and 1/3 of a month

14 months and 1/3 months

assume the graph of a function of the form y=asin(k(x+b)) is given below. which of the following are possible values for a, k, and b?

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, here we have the equation of the sine wave as;

y = asin(k(x + b))

By definition a represents the amplitude

k represents the frequency

b represents the horizontal shift or phase shift

Now let’s take a look at the graph.

By definition, the amplitude is the distance from crest to trough. It is the maximum displacement

From this particular graph, amplitude is 4

K is the frequency and this is 1/period

The period ;

Firstly we find the distance between two nodes here and that is 1/2 from the graph (3/4 to 1/4)

F = 1/T = 1/1/2 = 1/0.5 = 2

b is pi/4 ( phase is positive as it is increasing rightwards)

So the correct option here is C

Answer: it is

a=4, k=2, and b= pi/4

A piece of aluminum with a mass of 100.0 g has a temperature of 20.0°C. It absorbs 1100 J of heat energy. What is the final temperature of the metal?

Answers

Answer:

31.81°C

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula for calculating heat energy H = mcΔT

m = mass of the aluminum (in g/kg)

c = specific heat capacity of aluminum

ΔT = change in temperature = T - Ti (in °C)

T is the final temperature

Ti is the initial temperature

Given m = 100.0g,  c = 0.931096J/g °C, Ti = 20°C, H = 1100J T = ?

Substituting the given values into the formula;

1100 = 100*0.931096 (T - 20)

1100 = 93.1096T - 1862.192

93.1096 T = 1100+1862.192

93.1096 T  = 2962.192

T = 2962.192/93.1096

T = 31.81°C

The final temperature of the metal is 31.81°C

Answer:

31.81c

Step-by-step explanation:

1100 = 100*0.931096 (T - 20)

1100 = 93.1096T - 1862.192

93.1096 T = 1100+1862.192

93.1096 T  = 2962.192

T = 2962.192/93.1096

T = 31.81°C

The population, P (t), of an Ontario city is modeled by the function p(t) = 14t^2 + 650t + 32,000. If t = 0 corresponds to the year 2,000. When was the population 25,000?

Answers

Answer:

The population of the city was 25,000 in 1970 and 1983.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the year at which the population was 25,000 we need to make p(t) equal to that number and solve for t as shown below.

[tex]25000 = 14*t^2 + 650*t + 32000\\14*t^2 + 650*t + 7000 = 0\\t^2 + 46.43*t + 500 = 0\\t_{1,2} = \frac{-46.43 \pm \sqrt{(46.43)^2 - 4*1*500}}{2}\\t_{1,2} = \frac{-46.43 \pm \sqrt{155.75}}{2}\\t_{1,2} = \frac{-46.43 \pm 12.48}{2}\\t_1 = \frac{-33.95}{2} = -16.98\\t_2 = \frac{-58.91}{2} =- 29.5[/tex]

Since t = 0 corresponds to the year 2000, then t1 = 1983 and t2 = 1970.

how do u find rate of change on a graph

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is the vertical change divided by the horizontal change between two points on a line. We can find the slope of a line on a graph by counting off the rise and the run between two points. If a line rises 4 units for every 1 unit that it runs, the slope is 4 divided by 1, or 4.

Answer:

Calculate the rise over the run/the change in y over the change in x

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the rate of change on a graph from a slope, you need to look at how many units up and how many units to the right. Find a solid point on the graph for both the x and y directions. Count how many units go up and how many go right. Divide how many units go up by how many go to the right and that is the rate of change on the graph.

To steam rice, Paul uses m cups of water for every p
cups of rice. In terms of m and p, how many cups of
water are needed to steam p + 2 cups of rice?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{(p + 2)m}{p}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

m cups of water = p cups of rice

Required

Cups of water required for p + 2 cups of rice

The question shows a direct proportion between cups of rice and cups of water.

So, the first step is to get the proportionality constant (k)

This is calculated using the following expression;

[tex]m = k * p[/tex]

Where k represents cups of water and p represents cups of rice

Make k the subject of formula

[tex]k = \frac{m}{p}[/tex]

Let x represents cups of water when cups of rice becomes p + 2;

k becomes:

[tex]k = \frac{x}{p + 2}[/tex]

Equate both expressions of k; to give

[tex]\frac{m}{p} = \frac{x}{p + 2}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by p + 2

[tex](p + 2) * \frac{m}{p} =(p + 2) * \frac{x}{p + 2}[/tex]

[tex](p + 2) * \frac{m}{p} =x[/tex]

[tex]x = (p + 2) * \frac{m}{p}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{(p + 2)m}{p}[/tex]

Hence, the expression that represents the cups of water needed is [tex]\frac{(p + 2)m}{p}[/tex]

Subtracting Rational Numbers Simplify –3 – 1.

Answers

Answer:

-4

Explanation:

when subtracting a positive integer from a negative, the answer becomes smaller. If the question were to ask -3-(-1) negative 3 minus negative 1, the subtraction sign becomes a addition sign, and you add 1 to -3.

Answer: -4

Step-by-step explanation: To subtract the integers -1 - 1, I would first change the minus sign to plus a negative.

So we have -1 + -1.

Now let's use a number line to find our answer.

Starting at 0, -3 moves us 3 units to the left, then from there,

-1 moves us 1 more unit to the left and we end up at -4.

So -3 + -1 is -4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Well standard form is [tex]Ax+By=C[/tex].

And we have x = 2 meaning that x is 2 so the standard is [tex]A2+By=C[/tex].

So basically if we know that x is 2 and x is in the standard for equation we can just plug it in.

So [tex]Ax+By=C[/tex]

x -> 2

So answer is [tex]A2+By=C[/tex]

2A+By=C is the standard form of X=2

What is Equation?

Two or more expressions with an Equal sign is called as Equation.

The standard form of a linear equation is Ax+By=C.

A times of x plus B times of y equal to C

A, B, and C are constants,

x and y are variables.

Standard form lets us quickly find the x- and y- intercepts.

By given x value is 2.

So,

1/3x + 12 + 12 = x

1/3x + 24 = x

x + 72 = 3x

x-3x = -72

x = 72/2 = 36

Total no. of biscuits baked were 12+12+12 = 36

Which of the following is the sum of the slopes of the line 3x+y=1 and a line perpendicular to this line? A 0 B 13 C −83 D −6

Answers

Answer:

-8/3

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope of the line

3x+y = 1

Solve for y

y = -3x+1

This is in slope intercept form

y = mx+b where m is the slope

The slope is -3

The slopes of perpendicular lines multiply to -1

m* -3 = -1

m = 1/3

The line perpendicular has a slope of 1 / (3) = 1/3

The sum is -3 + 1/3

-9/2 + 1/3 = -8/3
