Answer:  c. 50

Step-by-step explanation:

1. By definition, when you add the exterior angles of a regular polygon, you obtain 360 degrees and the number of sides of that polygon can be calculated by dividing 360 degrees by the measure of the exterior angle of it.

2. As you know, the number of sides cannot be fractions, therefore, if you make the folllowing division:

360°/50°=36/5

You obtain a fraction.

3. Then, an exterior angle of a regular polygon cannot have the measure is 50°.

Answer:

Option c 50 cannot be the measure of exterior angle.

Step-by-step explanation:

SInce sum of the exterior  angles  of a polygon is 360

therefore only the angle which can evenly divides 360 can be the measure of exterior angle.

since 360÷90 = 4

         360 ÷120 =3

         360÷40 = 9

        360 ÷30 = 12

        360÷50 = 7.2

All the values except 50 divides evenly 360

therefore 50 cannot be the measure of exterior angle

4. Solve the following system of equations for x.
Ber [7]

We are given the system of equations -:

\large{ \begin{cases} 2x + 3y =  - 14 \\ y = 6x + 22 \end{cases}}

Since the second equation is y-isolated equation. It can be substituted as y = 6x+22 in the first equation.

\large{2x + 3(6x + 22) =  - 14}

Expand 3 in the expression so we can combine like terms and isolate x-variable.

\large{2x + 18x + 66 =  - 14}

Then combine like terms.

\large{20x + 66 =  - 14}

Get rid of 66 from the left side by subtracting both sides by itself.

\large{20x + 66 - 66 =  - 14 - 66} \\  \large{20x =  - 80}

To finally isolate the variable, divide both sides by 20 so we can leave x only on the left side.

\large{ \frac{20x}{20}  =  \frac{ - 80}{20} }

Simplify to the simplest form.

\large{x =  - 4}

Normally, we have to find the y-value too but since we only find x-value. The answer is x = -4.

Answer

  • x = -4

I hope this helps! If you have any questions or doubts regarding my answer, explanation or system of equations, feel free to ask!
