the assumption being that the endpoints are two continuous points in the pentagon, Check picture below.

\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ (\stackrel{x_1}{-1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{4})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{3})\qquad \qquad d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2} \\\\\\ d=\sqrt{[2-(-1)]^2+[3-4]^2}\implies d=\sqrt{(2+1)^2+(3-4)^2} \\\\\\ d=\sqrt{9+1}\implies d=\sqrt{10}~\hfill \stackrel{\stackrel{~\hfill \stackrel{\textit{5 sides}}{}}{\textit{perimeter of the pentagon}}}{5\sqrt{10}}

At a concert 2/5 of the people were men, there were 3 times as many women as children. If there were 45 more men than children,
Bogdan [553]

This involves creating some equations.

First, these are what the letters I used stand for:

c = children

w = women

m = men

x = total population

Then, we must make an equation for each statement.

2/5x = m (2/5 of the people are men)

3c = w (there are 3 times as many women than children)

45+c = m (there are 45 more men than children)

Now, let's start plugging in our numbers:

x = all the men, women, and children

2/5(m+w+c) = m

2/5 (45+c +3c + c) = m     [Now simplify]

2/5 (45 + 5x) = m       [Now Distribute]

2/5(45) + (2/5)(5x) = m

2c + 18 = m    [Above we stated that there were the same amount as men as c +45]

2c + 18 = 45 +c     [Now set equal to c]

2c (-c) +18 = 45 +c (-c)

c+18 (-18) = 45 (-18)

c = 27

Now that we know that there was 27 children, we can plug 27 in for c in the other equations.

MEN = 27 + 45

WOMEN = 3(27)

CHILDREN = 27

Now add those three answers to find your total!

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

For this question, simply plug in -2 for x:

g(-2)=2(-2)^2-4(-2)-4\\g(-2)=2(4)+8-4\\g(-2)=8+8-4\\g(-2)=12

Hope this helps!!

2. In a given country, records show that of the registered voters, 45% are Democrats, 35% are Republicans, and 20% are independe
Kitty [74]

Answer:

P(R) = 0.14

P(I) = 0.16

P(D) = 0.315

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Democrat = D

Republican = R

Independent = I

If 45% are Democrats, 35% are Republicans, and 20% are independents, then

Total registered voters = 100

 In an election, 70% of the Democrats, 40% of the Republicans, and 80% of the independents voted in favor of a parks and recreation bond proposal. That is,

D = 0.7 × 45 = 31.5

R = 0.4 × 35 = 14

I = 0.8 × 20 = 16

 If a registered voter chosen at random is found to have voted in favor of the bond, what is the probability that the voter is

a Republican:

P(R) = 14 /100 = 0.14

an Independent

P(I) = 16/100 = 0.16

a Democrat

P(D) = 31.5/100 = 0.315
