The sum of the measures of the angles of a polygon is given by (<em>n</em> - 2)(180), where <em>n</em> is the number of sides.  In this case we would have (9-2)(180)=7(180)=1260.  This is the <u>sum</u> of the angles.  Since it is a regular nonagon, that means that all sides are congruent and all angles are congruent.  Therefore we find the measure of each individual angle by dividing the sum, 1260, by the number of sides, 9.  1260/9=140.  <em>x</em> forms a linear pair with one of the interior angles; that means that the interior angle, 140, added to <em>x</em> would give us 180.  Therefore we find <em>x</em> by subtracting 180-140. <em>x</em> = 40.

Solve the equation by completing the square. Show your work.<br> v^2-8v-59=-2
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

answer is {-4.42, 12.54}


Step-by-step explanation:

v^2 - 8v - 59 = -2

v^2 - 8v = 57

(v - 4)^2 - 16 = 57

(v - 4)^2 = 73

Taking square roots:-

v - 4  = +/- √73

v = √73 + 4 or - √73 + 4

v = -4.54 , 12.54

Maya is making dream catchers with her family. Each dream catcher takes 1.53 feet of string. She has 6 people in her family. How much string does Maya need total?

1.53*6=9.18

You know where to put the decimal because you count how many places in the decimal is for the two numbers being multiplied (the only decimal in the two numbers being multiplied is in the number 1.53 and that’s is two places in) and then go that many places in on the product (918 two places in from then right would be 9.18)
