Given:
Number of tomatoes Sheldon picks = 
kg
Rotten tomatoes = 1.5 kg
To find:
How many kilograms of tomatoes were not rotten?
Solution:
Number of tomatoes Sheldon picks = kg
= 
kg
= 
kg
= 
kg
= 
kg
Rotten tomatoes = 1.5 kg
Remaining tomatoes which are not rotten is
Required tomatoes = Tomatoes Sheldon picks - Rotten tomatoes
= 
= 
kg
Therefore, the tomatoes which were not rotten is 2.9 kg.
Let x be the length of each side of the nonagon. We then split up the nonagon into 9 congruent, isosceles triangles, each with base = x and height = 12. Then the area of each triangle is 1/2 • x • 12 = 6x, so the total area of the nonagon will be 9 • 6x = 54x.
To find x, we can use some facts from geometry and trigonometry.
• In any polygon, the sum of the measures of the exterior angles is 360°. So each of these exterior angles will measure 360°/9 = 40°.
• Exterior angles are supplementary to the interior angles. So each interior angle will measure 180° - 40° = 140°.
• Each of the 9 triangles are isosceles with base angles measuring half the interior angles of the nonagon, 140°/2 = 70°.
• Cut the triangle in half along the labeled inradius of the nonagon, which has length 12. In the resulting right triangle, we have
tan(70°) = 12 / (x/2)
and solving for x gives
tan(70°) = 24/x
x = 24/tan(70°)
x = 24 cot(70°) ≈ 8.7
Then the total area of the nonagon is
54x = 54 • 24 cot(70°) ≈ 471.7
I'll just help quickly with a couple of expressions that are equivalent.
3(m+5+9m)
If you solve it out, you get 3m+15+27m.
Simply the expression to get 30m+15.
You can regroup to make another expression 5(6m+3) which is also equal.
I don't know all of them but I can tell you that B and E are answers that you should check.
