Answer:

The opposite of integer 4 units away from -6 is 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the opposite of the opposite of a number, say 2, is the number itself.

That is:

Opposite of 2 is -2.

Then the opposite of -2 is:

- (-2) = 2

Now consider a number line.

The number that is 4 units away from -6 is -10.

4 units away implies moving backwards 4 units from -6.

So, the number is -10.

The opposite of -10 will be:

- (-10) = 10

Thus, the opposite of integer 4 units away from -6 is 10.

Answer:

The polygon has 9 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A regular polygon has equal length sides and equal interior angles

step 1

Find the measure of the interior angle

Remember that

The interior angle plus the exterior angle must be equal to 180 degrees (form a linear pair)

Let

x ----> the measure of each interior angle in the regular polygon

$x+40^o=180^o$

solve for x

$x=180^o-40^o=140^o$

step 2

Find the number of sides of the regular polygon

we know that

The measure of each interior angle in a regular polygon is given by the formula

$x=\frac{(n-2)180^o}{n}$

where

n is the number of sides of the polygon

substitute the given values

$140^o=\frac{(n-2)180^o}{n}$

solve for n

$140n=180n-360\\180n-140n=360\\40n=360\\n=9\ sides$

therefore

The polygon has 9 sides

The point ( 3,0) lies on a circle with the center at the origin. What is the area of the circle to the nearest hundreth

Lina20 [59]

1) Find the radius of the circle. You can do that by inspection; no work required.
2) Use the "area of a circle" formula A = pi r^2 to calculate the area.
3) Round off your area calculation to the nearest hundredth.

In a class of 29 students, 19 are female and 14 have an A in the class. There are 8students who are male and do not have an A in

masya89 [10]

SOLUTION

The total number of females =

$19$

if 14 have an A in the class, the number of students without A is:

$29-14=15$

8 male students do not have an A, therefore the number of female students without an A is:

$15-8=7$

The probability that a student does not have an A given that the student is female can be calculated thus:

$\frac{\text{Total number of female students without an A}}{Total\text{ number of female students in the class}}$ $\frac{7}{19}$

What is the are in square feet of the trapezoid

miv72 [106K]

Answer:

A = 94.6ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to be able to find the area of a trapezoid or any quadrilateral shape we need to use the equation:

A= a+b/2h

As we know we have the number base 7.7ft, base 14.3ft, and height of 8.6ft so then we take these numbers :

7.7 + 14.3/2 x 8.6 = 94.6
