Simplifying
120 + -28a = 78

Solving
120 + -28a = 78

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-120' to each side of the equation.
120 + -120 + -28a = 78 + -120

Combine like terms: 120 + -120 = 0
0 + -28a = 78 + -120
-28a = 78 + -120

Combine like terms: 78 + -120 = -42
-28a = -42

Divide each side by '-28'.
a = 1.5

Simplifying
a = 1.5

120 - 28a = 78
28a = 120-78
28a = 42
a =  \frac{42}{28}  \\ a =  \frac{3}{2}

What is the name of the regular polygon that measures 140゚
andrezito [222]

Answer:

The regular polygon is a nonagon

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The correct question is</em></u>

What is the name of the regular polygon that each interior angle measures 140゚?

we know that

The formula to find the sum of the interior angles in a regular polygon is equal to

n(a)=(n-2)180\°

where

n is the number of sides of the regular polygon

a is the measure of each interior angle of the regular polygon

we have

a=140\°

substitute in the formula and solve for n

n(140\°)=(n-2)180\°

140n=180n-360

180n-140n=360

40n=360

n=9\ sides

so

The regular polygon has 9 sides

therefore

The regular polygon is a nonagon
