Answer:

x = 33

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of the interior angles of a 5-sided polygon = 540°

Therefore all the interior angles of the given polygon would all be equal to 540°.

Thus:

(4x - 25)° + (3x + 25)° + (2x - 3)° + (4x)° + (3x + 15)° = 540°

Solve for x

4x - 25 + 3x + 25 + 2x - 3 + 4x + 3x + 15 = 540

Combine like terms

4x + 3x + 2x + 4x + 3x - 25 + 25 - 3 + 15 = 540

16x + 12 = 540

16x = 540 - 12

16x = 528

Divide both sides by 16

x = 33

The end points of a diameter of a circle are (-6,2) and (10,-2). What are the coordinates of the center of the circle?

lozanna [386]

Check the picture below.

if we know the endpoints of the circle, then its center must be the midpoint of those two endpoints.

$\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{middle point of 2 points } \\\\ (\stackrel{x_1}{-6}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{2})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{10}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-2}) \qquad \left(\cfrac{ x_2 + x_1}{2}~~~ ,~~~ \cfrac{ y_2 + y_1}{2} \right) \\\\\\ \left( \cfrac{10-6}{2}~~,~~\cfrac{-2+2}{2} \right)\implies \left( \cfrac{4}{2}~~,~~\cfrac{0}{2} \right)\implies (2~~,~~0)$

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point ( − 6 , − 1 ) (−6,−1) and is perpendicular to the line 6 x − y = 7

xenn [34]

Answer:

y = $-\frac{1}{6}$ x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given coordinate:

( − 6 , − 1 )

Equation of the given line is 6x− y = 7

Unknown:

Equation of the line that passes through the point and is perpendicular = ?

Solution:

A perpendicular line will have a slope that is of negative inverse to the one given;

6x - y = 7

-y = -6x + 7

y = 6x - 7

According to y= mx + c

y and x are the coordinates

m is the slope

c is the y-intercept

Therefore, the slope of the line = 6

Perpendicular to this = $-\frac{1}{6}$

The new line will be;

Let find the intercept;

-1 = $-\frac{1}{6}$ x (-6) + c

-1 = 1 + c

c = -2

The new line is;

y = $-\frac{1}{6}$ x - 2

If x and y vary inversely and x = -3 when y = 12, what is the constant of variation?

Rina8888 [55]

k=-36

Step-by-step explanation:

x inversely proportional to y

x=1k/y

where k = constant

x= -3, y= 12, k = ?

-3=k/12

k = -3 × 12

k = -36
