There are 3 methods to solve this. elimination substitution and graphing but i am going to use the elimination method.
x+2y=17
<u> x-y =2
</u> 0+3y =15 ( subtracted down to eliminate the x)( x-x=0, 2y-(-y)=3y, and 17-2=15)
3y=15 (divide both sides by 3 to solve for y)
y=5
<u>substitute the y=5 in any of the above equations and solve for x
ie... ( </u>meaning where you find y in the equation, u replace it with a 5)
it will be easier to solve for x in (x-y=2) so i will use that one.
x-(5)=2 ( add 5 on both sides to solve for x)
x=7
RT = 8 , RS = 3 AND ST = 5.4
RV = 4 , RU = 1.5 AND UV = 2.7
∴ RT/RV = 8/4 = 2
AND RS/RU = 3/1.5 = 2
AND ST/UV = 5.4/2.7 = 2
∴Δ RTS IS SIMILAR TO ΔRVU
SO, the best statement is:
Each pair of sides corresponds with a common ratio of 2.
Certain events have a 100% probability of occurring, and impossible events have a 0% chance of occurring.
Theoretical probability is based on a mathematical estimate, whereas experimental probability is a probability determined based off of an experiment.
interior angle of a regular 18-gon.
It is easier to calculate the exterior angle of a regular polygon of n-sides (n-gon) by the relation
exterior angle = 360/n
For a 18-gon, n=18, so exterior angle = 360/18=20 °
The value of each interior angle is therefore the supplement, or
Interior angle = 180-20=160 degrees.
Naming of a 9-gon
A polygon with 9 vertices is called a nonagon (in English) or enneagon (French ennéagone, but the English version is sometimes used)
You had a good start with the correct answer.
Exterior angle of a 15-gon
The exterior angle of a 15-gon can be calculated using the relation given in the first paragraph, namely
Exterior angle = 360/15=24 degrees
