Answer:
M = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
-17 + 62 = -5 (3M - 3) Distribute -5 into the parentheses and combine like terms
45 = -15M + 15 Subtract 15 from both sides
30 = -15M Divide 15 from both sides
M = -2

<h3><u>The value of x, the first number, is equal to 3.</u></h3><h3><u>The value of y, the second number, is equal to 7.</u></h3>
x + 3y = 24
5x + 3y = 36
We can subtract both equations from each-other to cancel out a variable.
After doing so, we're left with:
-4x = -12
Multiply each term by -1
4x = 12
Divide both sides by 4.
x = 3
Now that we have a value for x, we can solve for y.
Plug this value into the first equation.
3 + 3y = 24
Subtract 3 from both sides.
3y = 21
Divide both sides by 3.
y = 7
A regular dodecagon is a polygon with 12 equal sides.
Length of each side = 108/12 = 9 cm.
Length of the apothem = (9/2)/tan 15 = 9/2tan 15 = 16.79 cm
Area of each triangle = 9/2(16.79) = 75.57 cm^2
Therefore, area of the dodecagon = 12(75.57) = 906.9 cm^2
