Since the pentagon is regular, the sides are all of equal length. This tells you

... 5x-27 = 2x-6

... 3x = 21 . . . . . . . add 27-2x

... x = 7

The length of a side can be found by subtituting this value into either expression.

... 2·7-6 = 8 . . . . inches

Can you solve: 6/5=n+2/2n-3​
OverLord2011 [107]

solving \frac{6}{5}=\frac{n+2}{2n-3} we get value of n: n=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving the expression:

\frac{6}{5}=\frac{n+2}{2n-3}

Solving:

\frac{6}{5}=\frac{n+2}{2n-3}\\Cross\,\,multiply:\\6(2n-3)=5(n+2)\\Simplifying:\\12n-18=5n+10\\Combining\,\,like\,\,terms:\\12n-5n=10+18\\7n=28\\n=\frac{28}{7}\\n=4

So, solving \frac{6}{5}=\frac{n+2}{2n-3} we get value of n: n=4

Determine whether the three points are collinear.<br> (0, - 10). (-3,- 13), (2,-8)
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

<h2>YES. These points are collinear.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

If three points are collinear, then the slopes are the same.

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

For (0, -10) and (-3, -13):

m=\dfrac{-13-(-10)}{-3-0}=\dfrac{-13+10}{-3}=\dfrac{-3}{-3}=1

For (-3, -13) and (2, -8):

m=\dfrac{-8-(-13)}{2-(-3)}=\dfrac{-8+13}{2+3}=\dfrac{5}{5}=1

We can check the last pair (0, -10) and (2, -8):

m=\dfrac{-8-(-10)}{2-0}=\dfrac{-8+10}{2}=\dfrac{2}{2}=1

Write this number in standard form. 300+80+0.9+0.06+0.001
Lina20 [59]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

First, let's add the hundreds and the tens.

300+80=380

We see that there is nothing in the ones place, so we keep our ones place 0 and we move onto adding the tenths.

380+0.9=380.9

We add the hundredths.

380.9+0.06=380.96

And finally, we add the thousandths.

380.96+0.001=380.961

Therefore, this number in standard form is 380.961.

Have a wonderful day! :D
