Answer: 12 sides
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is 180(n-2), where n is the number of sides
we have that
*-------------------------*--------------------------------*
E F G
EF=2x-12
FG= 3x-15
EG=23
we know that
EF + FG = EG
so
[2x - 12] + [3x - 15] = 23 simplify
5x - 27 = 23 add 27 to both sides
5x = 50 divide both sides by 5
x = 10
EF=2x-12-------> EF=2*10-12-------> EF=8
FG= 3x-15------> FG=3*10-15------> FG=15
therefore
the answer part a) is
the value of x is 10
the answer part b) is
the value of EF is 8
the answer part c) is
the value of FG is 15
5x - 20 = 8x - 65
-20 = 3x - 65
3x = 45
x = 15
#7:
<span>Subtract </span>y<span> from both sides:
</span>-4x=6-y
Divide both sides by -4:
Answer:
x= -6-y/4
#7 part 2:
Add <span>y</span><span> to both sides:
</span>-5x=21+y
Divide both sides by -5:
Answer: x=-21+y/5
hope i helped!
Answer: 9 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the present age of Ashley be x.
Then the present age of Alfonso =x+8
Five years ago,
Ashley's age = x-5
Alfonso's age = x+8-5 = x+3
According to the question,
Hence, the present age of Ashley =9 years
