Answer:

15.9 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

the information we have is:

Perimeter: P=95.4cm

Number of sides of the polygon: n=6

since each side has equal length, we can use the following equation to find the measure of one side of the polygon, the equation for perimeter:

P=nl

where n is the number of sides and l is the length of each side.

So we clear for l and we get:

l=\frac{P}{n}

and subtituting the known values:

l=\frac{95.4cm}{6}\\ l=15.9cm

each side is 15.6 centimeters long

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+10)x=3x^2

x^2+10x=3x^2

10x=2x^2

5x=x^2

x=5

Plugging in 5 into either of the initial equations yields the answer.

You meet with the financial aid office to discuss your costs for attending MGA next semester. Tuition is $113.67 per credit hour
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

$1615.05

Step-by-step explanation:

First the cost. We know that tuition per credit hour is 113.67 and there is a flat fee of 660. This can be represented by 113.67h + 660, where h is equal to the number of credit hours.

Next, the amount paid. There are two constants of 350 and 400 already there. We can represent the remaining amount that needs to be paid by another variable, x.

Now, the cost needs to be equal to the amount you pay. We can replace h with 15 for 15 hours and solve for x.

113.67h + 660 = 350 + 400 + x

113.67(15) + 660 = 350 + 400 + x

1705.05 + 660 = 750 + x

2365.05 = 750 + x

1615.05 = x

A copy machine makes 24 copies per minute. how many copies does it make in 5 minutes and 30 seconds
enot [183]
In 1 minute the copy machine copies = 24
That means
In 60 seconds the copy machine copies = 24
First we need to convert 5 minutes and 30 seconds to seconds
Then
5 minutes and 30 seconds = (5 * 60) + 30
                                           = 300 + 30
                                           = 330 seconds
So
In 330 seconds the copy machine will copy = (24/60) * 330
                                                                     = 4 * 33
                                                                     = 132
So in 5 minutes and 30 seconds the copy machine will copy 132 copies.
