Answer:
93.39
Step-by-step explanation:
So the sum of exterior angles of the convex octagon is: 360 degrees
This means if we add all the equations that represent each angle, we can set it equal to 360 and solve for x

Group like terms

Add like terms

Now let's set the sum of exterior angles to 360

Subtract 2 from both sides

Divide both sides by 23

So by looking at all these, it appears that 6x is the highest value, given that x is positive. The way I estimated, is approximately 15.5, whenever I saw an equation like x+14, I estimated it's about 2x, since 14 is not exactly, but close to 15.5. I did this with each polynomial given. You could also manually check each one
Original equation
6x
Subsitute
6(15.565)

Answer:
33 1/3 lb
Step-by-step explanation:
When the distance between them goes from 8 ft to 12 ft, it is 1.5 times what it was. Then the force will be multiplied by the inverse of the square of this:
(75 lb)×1/(1.5²) = 75/2.25 lb = 33 1/3 lb
At 12 feet apart, the attraction force is 33 1/3 pounds.

Combine like terms to simplify an expression. For example, all terms with the variable x can be combined into one term. All constants can also be combined.
1) -4x - 10x = -14x
2) -r - 10r = -11r
3) -2x + 11 +6x = 4x + 11
4) 11r - 12r = -r
5) -v + 12v = 11v
6) -8x - 11x = -19x
7) 4p + 2p = 6p
8) 5n + 11n = 16n
9) n + 4 - 9 - 5n = -4n - 5
10) 12r + 5 + 3r - 5 = 15r (the 5 and -5 cancel each other out)
11) -5 + 9n + 6 = 9n + 1
