Answer:

i. 9

ii. 14

iii. 405

iv. \frac{n(n-3)}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of diagonals in a polygon of n sides can be determined by:

\frac{n(n-3)}{2}

where n is the number of its sides.

i. For a hexagon which has 6 sides,

number of diagonals = \frac{6(6-3)}{2}

                                   = \frac{18}{2}

                                   = 9

The number of diagonals in a hexagon is 9.

ii. For a heptagon which has 7 sides,

number of diagonals = \frac{7(7-3)}{2}

                                   = \frac{28}{2}

                                   = 14

The number of diagonals in a heptagon is 14.

iii. For a 30-gon;

number of diagonals = \frac{30(30-3)}{2}

                                          = \frac{810}{2}

                                         = 405

The number of diagonals in a 30-gon is 405.

iv. For a n-gon,

number of diagonals = \frac{n(n-3)}{2}

The number of diagonals in a n-gon is \frac{n(n-3)}{2}

Henry was thinking of a number Henry halves it and gets a an answer of 12.4 what was the original number
jeka94
Answer: 24.8
Explanation: If Henry is halving a number, that means he's dividing it by 2, getting two halves. You would get the original number by undoing that division, or multiplying the product by 2.
2 x 12.4 = 24.8

What is the range of this piecewise function
White raven [17]

Answer as a compound inequality: -4 \le y < 2

Answer in interval notation:  [-4, 2)

=============================================

Explanation:

The range is the set of all possible y outputs of a function. When dealing with a graph like this, we just look at the highest and lowest points to determine which y values are possible.

The lowest point occurs when y = -4. We include this value. So far we have y \ge -4 which is the same as -4 \le y

The upper ceiling for the y value is y = 2. We can't actually reach this value because of the open hole at (-3,2). So we say that y < 2

Combine -4 \le y and y < 2 to get the compound inequality -4 \le y < 2

This says y is between -4 and 2, including -4 but excluding 2.

To convert this to interval notation, we write [-4, 2) where the square bracket says to include the endpoint and the curved parenthesis says to exclude the endpoint.
