<em><u>Complete Question:</u></em>

The equation a= 180(n-2)/n represents the angle measures, a, in a regular n-sided polygon. When the equation is solved for n, n is equal to a fraction with a denominator of a – 180. What is the numerator of the fraction?

<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

The numerator of fraction is -360

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

<em><u>The equation represents the angle measures, a, in a regular n-sided polygon is:</u></em>

a = \frac{180(n - 2)}{n}

We have to solve the equation for "n"

Rearrange the equation

a \times n = 180(n - 2)\\\\a \times n = 180n - 360\\\\an - 180 n = -360\\\\Take\ n\ as\ common\ factor\\\\n(a-180) = -360\\\\n = \frac{-360}{a - 180}

Thus the numerator of the fraction is -360

The amount of paint that would be contained in each of the can would be 8.

<h3>How to solve for the amount of paint.</h3>

Using the information in the question we have the following

We have to solve the equation as

(2  1/2)   + 2(4)  + 1(5  1/2)  =

2.5 + 8 + 5.5

= 16

Each of these would have to hold 16/2 = 8 pints.

5y = 135 help me<br> what does y equal?
Natali [406]

Answer:

27

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for y:

5 y = 135

Divide both sides of 5 y = 135 by 5:

(5 y)/5 = 135/5

5/5 = 1:

y = 135/5

The gcd of 135 and 5 is 5, so 135/5 = (5×27)/(5×1) = 5/5×27 = 27:

Answer:  y = 27
