The polygon is a 14gon / it has 14 sides
The product of any number and its reciprocal is ' 1 '.
Call the number ' Q '.
Whatever the number is, its reciprocal is 1/Q .
Their product is
( Q ) x ( 1/Q ) = ( Q/Q ) = 1
Use elimination method - I am eliminaing the y-variable.
1(5x + 8y = 16) → 5x + 8y = 16
4(6x - 2y = 54) → 24x - 8y = 216
Add equations: 29x = 232
Divide by 29: x = 8
Answer: x = 8
