You can calculate polygon area with only apothem OR side length.
apothem only
area = apothem^2 * 6 * tan (180/6)
area = 10.4^2 * 6 * 0.57735
area = 108.16 *

<span>
3.4641
</span>
</span>
</span>
area =
<span>
<span>
<span>
374.677056
</span>
</span>
</span>
square yards
side length only
area = 6 * 12^2 * / 4*tan(30)
area = 864 / 4 * 0.57735
area = 864 /

area =

374.1231488698

square yards
If apothem and side length were given with more precision, the answers would be closer.

Answer: y=8x-3
explanation:
y=mx+b
m= slope
b= y intercept
m=8 b=-3
y=8x-3
You just have to divide the amount spent by the number of golf balls.
$9.54 divided by 18 balls = $0.53 per golf ball
