Answer:

The base = 8 cm and the altitude = 4 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

b = a + 4  where b = base and a = the altitude.

Area = 1/2 * a * b = 16

Area = 1/2 * a * (a + 4) = 16

1/2 a^2 + 2a = 16

a^2 + 4a - 32 = 0

(a + 8)(a - 4) = 0

a = 4 .

b = 4+4 = 8.

Identify the sum of the interior angle measures of a convex octagon.
dmitriy555 [2]
(n - 2)*180
Therefore, (8 - 2)*180
Which equals to 6(180) or 1080

Hope this helps! :)

Adding and subtracting the given polynomials
Usimov [2.4K]

You have to combine like terms, so the variable (x, y, s, d, c....) and the exponents must be the same in order to combine them.

For example:

x² + x³    Since they don't have the same exponent, you can't combine them

y² + 3y² = 4y²

23x + x = 24x

4. 2s² + 1 + s² - 2s + 1    You can rearrange it if it makes it easier

2s² + s² - 2s + 1 + 1 = 3s² - 2s + 2

5. 5t² - 2t - 1 - (3t² - 5t + 7) Distribute/multiply the - to (3t² - 5t + 7)

5t² - 2t - 1 - 3t² + 5t - 7 = 2t² + 3t - 8

Do the same for #9 and #10, and you should get:

9. 2k² + 5k - 9

10. 6y³ - 7y² - 6y - 12
