Answer:

  about 8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a regular polygon is ...

  A = 1/2Pa . . . . where P is the perimeter and "a" is the apothem, the distance from the center to a side

Filling in your numbers, we have ...

  20 cm^2 = (1/2)P(5 cm)

Dividing by the coefficient of P, we find ...

  2×(20 cm^2)/(5 cm) = P = 8 cm

The perimeter of the pentagon is about 8 cm.

_____

<em>Comment on the problem</em>

This calculation makes use of the area formula, as apparently intended. A regular pentagon with an apothem of about 5 cm will have an area of about 90.8 cm^2. The given geometry is impossible, as the pentagon is nearly 10 cm across. It cannot have a perimeter of only 8 cm.

Gonzalo is trying to find the unit price On a 6-pack of orange juice on sale for $6.99. His sister says that at that price, each
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Unit prices come from dividing the price, $6.99, by the amount of product, 6,

6.99 ÷ 6 = 1.165

Now, because you cannot have more than two digits in the cents part, you would round that up to $1.17 which is over $1.05 dollars per bottle.

. Calculate the loss on selling 50 shares of stock originally bought at 133/4 and sold at 12.
Aleks04 [339]

is simply the difference of both numbers of course, the price it was sold minus the price it was bought at.


\bf \cfrac{133}{4}-12\implies \cfrac{133}{4}-\cfrac{12}{1}\implies \stackrel{\textit{our LCD will be 4}}{\cfrac{(1)133-(4)12}{4}}\implies \cfrac{133-48}{4}\implies \cfrac{85}{4}

Draw and label a figure for each relationship.<br> Points X and Y lie on CD.
gavmur [86]

A number line was used to draw and label a figure for Points X and Y that lies on CD as shown in the image attached below.

<h3>What is a line segment?</h3>

A line segment can be defined as the part of a line in a geometric figure such as a triangle, circle, quadrilateral, etc., that is bounded by two (2) distinct points and it typically has a fixed length.

<h3>What is a number line?</h3>

A number line can be defined as a type of graph with a graduated straight line which contains numerical values (positive and negative numbers) that are placed at equal intervals along its length.

A number line would be used to draw and label a figure for Points X and Y that lies on CD as shown in the image attached below.
