Which expression represents the number of sides in the polygon for the nth member of the pattern?

1 answer:

5 0

Given a triangle (3 sides), a hexagon (6 sides) and a nonagon (9 sides).

The sides increases by 3 and the equation that represents the pattern is 3n.

Therefore, the <span>expression that represents the number of sides in the polygon for the nth member of the pattern is 3n.</span>

In a packet of stickers there are 15 small stars, 7 big stars, 9 small rockets, and 6 big rockets. Kevin is going to choose one

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

31/37

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 15 + 7 + 9 + 6 = 37 total stickers. Of those, 15 + 9 = 24 are small and 15 + 7 = 22 are stars. However, there are 15 small stars so 24 - 15 = 9 of them are only small and 22 - 15 = 7 are only stars. This means that there are 15 + 9 + 7 = 31 stickers that are small or stars, therefore the probability is 31/37.

Solve the system of equations using substitution and Elimination

juin [17]

<h2>Greetings!</h2>

Answer:

y = $\frac{-18}{7}$ and x = $\frac{50}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve simultaneous equations, you need to have the number in front of both x's or y's the same. (signs doesn't matter)

To get -x to -10x we simply need to multiply the first equation by 10:

-x * 10 = -10x

-9y * 10 = -90y

16 * 10 = 160

-10x - 90y = 160

Now we can add the two equations:

-10x + 10x = 0

-90y + 20y = -70y

160 + 20 = 180

-70y = 180

70y = -180

7y = -18

y = $\frac{-18}{7}$

Now plug $\frac{-18}{7}$ into the second equation:

10x + 20( $\frac{-18}{7}$ ) = 20

10x - $\frac{360}{7}$ = 20

Move the $\frac{360}{7}$ over to the other side, making it a positive:

10x = 20 + $\frac{360}{7}$

10x = $\frac{500}{7}$

Divide both sides by 10:

x = $\frac{50}{7}$

So y = $\frac{-18}{7}$ and x = $\frac{50}{7}$

HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELPPPPPPPPPPPPPP

Rasek [7]

Answer:
slope = -9/2

Explanation:
The form of the slope-intercept equation is:
y = mx + c
where:
m is the slope
c is the y-intercept

The given is:
y = -9/2 x

Comparing the given with the general form, we will find that:
m is the slope = -9/2
c is the y-intercept = 0

Hope this helps :)
y = -9/2

Find the value of x<br> 6x + 12<br> 3x - 3

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

19°

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Concept</u><u> </u><u>Used </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

The measure of a straight line is 180°. So the sum of angles on a straight line is 180° .

Using this ,

$\bf\implies 6x + 12 + 3x - 3 = 180\\\\\bf\implies 9x + 9 = 180\\\\\bf\implies 9x = 180-9 \\\\\bf\implies x =\dfrac{171}{9} \\\\\bf\implies\boxed{\red{\bf x = 19 }}$

<h3>Hence the value of x is 19°</h3>
