Soooooooooooooo N=18

jekas [21]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

n = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for angle sum of a polygon is S = 180 (n - 2), where S is the sum and n is the sides.

We are given that the sum is 2880, and are trying to find n.

Simply sub in S = 2880,

2880 = 180 (n - 2)

Divide by 180 to get (n - 2) by themselves on the right side,

16 = n - 2

Now add 2 to the other side to get n by itself

18 = n

n = 18

Hope this helped!! Please feel free to ask me if there's anything you don't understand from this working

Hector has 3/4 hour to spend his homework. He wants to spend 1/3 of this time on math homework, 10 minutes of his time on readin
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

20 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that

1\ h=60\ mi

we know that

Hector has 3/4 hour to spend his homework

Convert to minutes

\frac{3}{4}(60)=45\ min

so

1) He wants to spend 1/3 of this time on math homework

To find out the time on math homework, multiply 45 minutes by 1/3

45(\frac{1}{3})=15\ min

2) He wants to spend 10 minutes of his time on reading homework

3) He wants to spend the remaining time on science homework

The time spend on math homework plus the time spend reading homework, plus the time spend on his science homework must be equal to 45 minutes

Let

x ----> the time spend on his science homework

15+10+x=45

Solve for x

25+x=45\\x=45-25\\x=20\ min

The planets in our solar system do not travel in circular paths. Rather, their orbits are elliptical. The Sun is located at a fo
qwelly [4]

1. The distance between the perihelion and the aphelion is 116 million miles

2. The distance from the center of Mercury’s elliptical orbit and the Sun is 12 million miles

3. The equation of the elliptical orbit of Mercury is \frac{x^{2}}{3364}}+\frac{y^{2}}{3220}=1

4. The eccentricity of the ellipse is 0.207 to the nearest thousandth

5. The value of the eccentricity tell you that the shape of the ellipse is near to the shape of the circle

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise the equation of the ellipse is

\frac{x^{2}}{a^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{b^{2}}=1 , where the major axis is parallel to the x-axis

  • The length of the major axis is 2a
  • The coordinates of the vertices are (± a , 0)
  • The coordinates of the foci are (± c , 0) , where c² = a² - b²

∵ The Sun is located at a focus of the ellipse

∴ The sun located ate c

∵ The perihelion is the point in a planet’s orbit that is closest to the

   Sun ( it is the endpoint of the major axis that is closest to the Sun )

∴ The perihelion is located at the vertex (a , 0)

∵ The closest Mercury comes to the Sun is about 46 million miles

∴ The distance between a and c is 46 million miles

∵ The aphelion is the point in the planet’s orbit that is furthest from

   the Sun ( it is the endpoint of the major axis that is furthest from

   the Sun )

∴ The aphelion is located at the vertex (-a , 0)

∵ The farthest Mercury travels from the Sun is about 70 million miles

∴ The distance from -a to c is 70 million miles

∴ The distance between the perihelion and the aphelion =

   70 + 46 = 116 million miles

1. The distance between the perihelion and the aphelion is 116 million miles

∵ The distance between the perihelion and the aphelion is the

  length of the major axis of the ellipse

∵ The length of the major axis is 2 a

∴ 2 a = 116

- Divide both sides by 2

∴ a = 58

∴ The distance from the center of Mercury’s elliptical orbit to the

   closest end point to the sun is 58 million miles

∵ The distance between the sun and the closest endpoint is

   46 million miles

∴ The distance from the center of Mercury’s elliptical orbit and

   the Sun = 58 - 46 = 12 million miles

2. The distance from the center of Mercury’s elliptical orbit and the Sun is 12 million miles

∵ The major axis runs horizontally

∴ The equation is \frac{x^{2}}{a^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{b^{2}}=1

∵ a = 58

∵ c is the distance from the center to the focus of the ellipse

∴ c = 12

∵ c² = a² - b²

∴ (12)² = (58)² - b²

- Add b² to both sides

∴ (12)² + b² = (58)²

- Subtract (12)² from both sides

∴ b² = (58)² - (12)² = 3220

- Substitute these values in the equation

∴ \frac{x^{2}}{3364}}+\frac{y^{2}}{3220}=1

3. The equation of the elliptical orbit of Mercury is \frac{x^{2}}{3364}}+\frac{y^{2}}{3220}=1

The eccentricity (e) of an ellipse is the ratio of the distance from the

center to the foci (c) and the distance from the center to the

vertices (a) ⇒ e=\frac{c}{a}

∵ c = 12

∵ a = 58

∴ e=\frac{12}{58} = 0.207

4. The eccentricity of the ellipse is 0.207 to the nearest thousandth

If the eccentricity is zero, it is not squashed at all and so remains a circle.

If it is 1, it is completely squashed and looks like a line

∵ The eccentricity of the ellipse is 0.207

∵ This number is closed to zero than 1

∴ The shape of the ellipse is near to the shape of the circle

5. The value of the eccentricity tell you that the shape of the ellipse is near to the shape of the circle

Find the slope of the line 8x – 4y = 8\ (hint: find 2 points; then use the slope formula)
Vera_Pavlovna [14]
8x - 4y = 8

-4y = -8x + 8

y = -8x/-4 + 8/-4

y = 2x - 2,  comparing to y = mx + c, slope m = 2

Slope = 2.
