A n-faced regular polyhedron consists of 2n edges and (2n-4) vertices. Find n .

1 answer:

3 0

We could use Euler's polyhedron formula:

$F=n\qquad\qquad\text{(Faces)}\\\\E=2n\qquad\qquad\text{(Edges)}\\\\V=2n-4\qquad\qquad\text{(Vertices)}\\\\\\V-E+F=2\\\\2n-4-2n+n=2\\\\-4+n=2\qquad|+4\\\\\boxed{n=6}$

A woman who is 5 feet 5 inches tall is standing near the Space Needle in Seattle, Washington. She casts a 13-inch shadow at the

geniusboy [140]

Converting to inches we have
$\\ \frac{65}{13} = \frac{x}{121 \times 12} \: or \\ \frac{65}{13} = \frac{x}{1452} \: so \\ (65)(1452) = 13x \: so \\ x = \frac{(65)(1452)}{13} = 7260 \: inches \\ = \frac{7260}{12} = 65feet \\ as \: the \: height \: of \: the \: space \: needle$

Solve the equation using the distributive property and properties ofequally 1/2 (x+6)=18 what is the value of X

Natali [406]

x = 30

The distributive property says that we need to multiply what's in the brackets by 1/2 (so 1/2*x and 1/2*6) to get the equation 1/2x + 3 = 18.

Then we need to subtract our constant, 3, from boths sides to get 1/2x = 15.

Multiply both sides by two to isolate x and you get x = 30.

Hope this helps! :)
