-2a-9=6a+15
Move 6a to the other side. Sign changs from +6a to -6a.
-2a-6a-9=6a-6a+15
-2a-6a-9=15
-8a-9=15
Move -9 to the other side. Sign changes from -9 to +9.
-8a-9+9=15+9
-8a=15+9
-8a=24
Divide both sides by -8
-8a/-8=24/-8
a=-3
Answer: a=-3
6.6 Symmetries of Regular
Polygons
A Solidify Understanding Task
A line that reflects a figure onto itself is called a line of symmetry. A figure that can be carried onto
itself by a rotation is said to have rotational symmetry. A diagonal of a polygon is any line
segment that connects non-consecutive vertices of the polygon.
For each of the following regular polygons, describe the rotations and reflections that carry it onto
itself: (be as specific as possible in your descriptions, such as specifying the angle of rotation)
1. An equilateral triangle
2. A square
3. A regular pentagon
4. A regular hexagon
Answer:
2 bags of topsoil.
Step-by-step explanation:
The attached figure shows a flower bed.
One bag of topsoil covers 15 square meters.
We need to find how many bags of topsoil does Tom need to cover his flower bed.
The area of the flower bed is :
Let he has to cover x bags of topsoil. So,
x = Area of flower bed/Area of 1 bag of top soil
x = 30/15
x = 2
Hence, he will need 2 bags of topsoil to cover his flower bed.
