Answer:

The value of a is 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to find the total interior angles of the polygon using the formula, sum = (n-2)×180°, where n represents the number of sides :

sum = (n-2)×180°

sum = (5-2)×180°

sum = 540°

Given that the sum of the interior angle is 540° so in order to find the value of a, you have to add up all the angles in terms of a :

3a + 150 + 8a + 6a + 9a = 540

26a + 150 = 540

26a = 390

a = 390 ÷ 26

a = 15

If p(x) = 2x2 – 4x and q(x) = x – 3 what is (p*q)(x)
igomit [66]
<span>The correct answer is 2x</span>²<span>-16x+30.

Explanation<span>:
(p*q)(x) is a composition of the two functions p(x) and q(x); it is the same as p(q(x)). We replace every x in p(x) with our value of q(x), x-3:
instead of 2x</span></span>²<span><span>, we have 2(x-3)</span></span>²<span><span>, and instead of -4x, we have -4(x-3).

This gives us 2(x-3)</span></span>²<span><span>-4(x-3). This is the same as 2(x-3)(x-3)-4(x-3).

Multiplying, we have
2(x*x-3*x-3*x-3(-3))-(4*x-4*3)
=2(x</span></span>²<span><span>-3x-3x+9)-(4x-12)
=2(x</span></span>²<span><span>-6x+9)-4x+12.

Using the distributive property gives us
2*x</span></span>²<span><span>-2*6x+2*9-4x+12
=2x</span></span>²<span><span>-12x+19-4x+12.

Combine like terms, and we have 2x</span></span>²<span><span>-16x+30.</span></span>

Write the equation of a line in - form that contains the point (- 1, - 2) and is perpendicular to the line y = 5x - 10 degrees
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

y+2= -1/5(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

if lines are perpendicular their slopes are negative reciprocal

y=mx+b where m is the slope

y=5x-10 has the slope 5 so a perpendicular line will have slope -1/5

equation point slope form

(y-y1) = m(x-x1) where m is slope, and (x1,y1) any point that belongs to the line

y+2= -1/5(x+1)

A sewing club used 48 feet of fabric to make 8 blankets. At this rate how many blankets can be made from 6 yards of fabric?
Scilla [17]
48f=8b
÷8    ÷8 (divided by 8)
6f=b
it takes 6 feet of fabric to make 1 blanket 
6f=1b                                                             3f=y
36f=6b
12y=6b

it takes 12 yards to make 6 blankets
