Answer :

The Correct Option is B) Hexagon

Step-by-step explanation :

Let number of sides in a polygon be n

The triangles are created by drawing the diagonals from one vertex to all the others.

Since there is no overlapping of the triangles so no diagonal will be drawn back to itself, and the diagonals to each adjacent vertex would lie on top of the adjacent sides, therefore number of diagonals from a single vertex is three less the the number of sides, or n - 3 and the number of triangles is one more than that, so n - 2.

⇒ Number of triangles = number of sides in polygon - 2

⇒ Number of triangles = n - 2

⇒ n = 4 + 2

⇒ n = 6

And the polygon containing 6 sides is called Hexagon

Hence, the correct Option is B) Hexagon

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

<h3>2min/customer</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

If 8 customers entered a store over the course of 16 minutes, then;

8 customers = 16 minutes.

The rate at which the customers are entering is expressed as;

Rate = Time (in minutes)/amount of customers;

Given

Time = 16 minutes

Amount of customers = 8 customers

Rate = 16min/8customers

Rate = 2min/customer

Hence the rate at which the customers entering the store in minutes per customer is 2min/customer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

x1= 3

y1=3

x2=6
