It is 14 because if you have -1/2x + 1 = -x + 8 you would combine the multiplied terms into a single fraction then subtract the one from both sides simplify till you get -x/2 = -x + 7 then you will add like terms so the x’s then you multiply all terms by two like 2(-x/2)= 2•7 then you can get 14.

To find the measure of an interior angle of any regular polygon, we use the formula:
180 * (n-2) / n,
where n is the number of sides in the regular polygon.
Therefore, if there are 15 sides in the regular polygon, your answer would be
180 * (15-2) / 15,
or when simplified,
180 * 13 / 15
2340 / 15
156 degrees.
Thus, the measure of an interior angle of a regular polygon with 15 sides is 156 degrees.
Answer:
A. 5x^2 − 2x − 24 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
height = 5b-2
b =x
We can rewrite the height as
h = 5x-2
We know the formula for area of a triangle
A = 1/2 bh
A =1/2 x * (5x-2)
Distributing the x
A= 1/2 (5x^2 - 2x)
We know A =12
12 = 1/2 (5x^2 - 2x)
Multiply each side by 2
12*2 = 2*1/2 (5x^2 - 2x)
24 = 5x^2 - 2x
Subtract 24 from each side
24-24 = 5x^2 - 2x-24
0 = 5x^2 - 2x-24
