x=12

x/16-1-4=1/2

multiply by both sides

x-4=8

move constant to the right side of and change its sign

x=8+4

add the numbers

x=12

kolezko [41]

Answer:

x = -11

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The perimeter of the base of the birdhouse is 36 units

Step-by-step explanation:

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

Chase is building a birdhouse in the shape of a regular polygon. He knows that the measure of the interior angle is twice the measure of the exterior angle and the length of a diagonal that passes through the center is 12. What is the perimeter of the base of the birdhouse?

step 1

Find the measure of the interior angle

Let

x ---> the measure of the interior angle

y ---> the measure of the exterior angle

Remember that

the sum of the interior and exterior angle in any polygon is equal to 180 degrees

so

x+y=180^o ----> equation A

we have that

the measure of the interior angle is twice the measure of the exterior angle

so

x=2y ----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

2y+y=180

y=60^o

so

x=120^o

That means-----> The figure is a regular hexagon

step 2

Remember that

The length of the diagonal that passes through the center of the hexagon is equal to two times the length of the regular hexagon

Let

b ----> the length side of the hexagon

so

b=12/2=6\ units

The perimeter of the hexagon is given by the formula

P=6b

substitute

P=6(6)=36\ units

You want to have $25,000 for a down payment on a house 6 years from now. if you can earn 6.5 percent, compounded annually, on yo
STatiana [176]
Use compound interest formula:
Future value, F 
25000=P(1+i)^n
where
P=present value to be found
i=annual interest rate = 0.065
n=number of years = 6
so
25000=P(1.065)^6
=>
P=(25000/1.065^6)=$17133.353
