Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

This sounds like there should be choices. I will make a couple of suggestions.

Suggestions

1. You can't factor this by using the factors of 2 (like +/- 2 or +/- 1.  

2. You must use the quadratic equation.

3. You don't get rational numbers.

4. You do get real numbers.

5. To confirm the equation, you can graph it.

6. You could complete the square which is rather the long way of doing it.

Here is the graph solution

Answer:

D. 1800°

Step-by-step explanation:

The given polygon has 12 sides.

The formula for finding the sum of the interior angles of an n-sided polygon is given as, ( n − 2 ) × 180.

Where n is the number of sides of the polygon.

Thus, the sum of the interior angles of the 12 sided polygon given above is:

(12 - 2) × 180

= 10 × 180 = 1800°

<em>Sum of the measures of the interior angles of the 12-sided polygon is D. 1800°</em>

What is the equation of a line with a slope of -2 that passes through the point (6, 8)?
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

2x + y = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

gradient = -2

x = 6, y = 8

y - 8 = -2(x - 6)

y - 8 = -2x + 12

2x + y = 12 + 8

2x + y = 20

Kelsey can buy 2 pounds of apples for 7$. Write an equation to represent the cost, c, for a, pounds of apples.
zmey [24]

\huge\boxed{c=3.5a}

First, we need to find how much a single pound of apples costs.

Do this by dividing.

\frac{\$7}{2\ \text{lbs.}}\div\frac{2}{2}=\frac{\$(7\div 2)}{(2\div 2)\ \text{lbs.}} = \frac{\boxed{\$3.50}}{1\ \text{lb.}}

Now, write an equation.

\large\boxed{c=3.5a}

This represents that the cost equals 3.5 times the number of apples.
