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

NeX [460]

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Point X = (3, 2)

Point Y = (3, - 8)

Distance of point X to Y:

Distance = √(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2

X1 = 3 ; y1 = 2 ; x2 = 3 ; y2 = - 8

Distance = √(3 - 3)^2 + (-8 - 2)

Distance = √(0)^2 + (-10)^2

Distance = √0 + 100

Distance = √100

Distance = 10

Most evenings after dinner Duarte spends 30 minutes playing chess with his dad.
olasank [31]
T= total played
e= # evenings played
m= # minutes played

Total equals number of evenings played multiplied by number of minutes plated per evening.

EQUATION:
t=e * m

EQUATION (if 30 minutes per evening):
t=30e

Example:
3 nights, 30 minutes played

t= 3 * 30
t=90 minutes total played

Hope this helps!  :)
