X + y = 13
x - y = 5
x = (13 - y)
(13-y) - y = 5
13 - 2y = 5
-2y = -8
y = 4
x - 4 = 5
x = 9
x=9, y = 4
Answer: the polygon has 20 sides.
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for determining the sum of the measure of the interior angles in a regular polygon is expressed as (n - 2) × 180.
if the sum of the measures of the interior angles is 3960
degrees. This means that
(n - 2) × 180 = 3960
Expanding the brackets by applying the distributive property, it becomes
180n - 360 = 3960
180n = 3960 - 360
180n = 3600
Dividing both sides by 180, it becomes
n = 3600/180
n = 20
97 is the answer to your question
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
7(p-6)=8p-34
Distribute 7 into the parentheses on the Left Hand Side of the equation
7p-42=8p-34
get p together, so minus 7p on both sides
7p-7p-42=8p-7p-34
7p and -7p cancel out on L.H.S
-42=p-34
isolate p by adding 34 to both sides
-42+34=p-34+34
-34 and postitive 34 cancel out on the R.H.S
p=-8
Hope this helps! :)
2x - 3y = 7 and -3x + y = 7..multiply Equation 2 by THREE and add to Equation 1
-9x + 3y = 21...........................watch the y's disappear
-7x........ = 28
x = -4
substitute -4 instead of x in either of the ORIGINAL equations
2x - 3y = 7
2(-4) - 3y = 7
-8 -3y = 7..........add 8 to both sides
-3y = 15
y = -5
im not sure
