Answer:

6 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of one interior angle of a regular polygon is two times the measure of one of its exterior angles. How many sides does this polygon have?

Let us represent:

Sum of Exterior angle as x

Sum of Interior angle as y

Note that:

The sum of the exterior angles of a polygon = 180 - The sum of the interior angles

Hence,

The sum of the exterior angles of a polygon + The sum of the interior angles = 180

x + y = 180

The measure of one interior angle of a regular polygon is two times the measure of one of its exterior angles.

2x = y

Substituting

x + 2x = 180°

3x = 180°

x = 180/3

x = 60°

Solving for y

2x = y

2 × 60° = y

120° = y

Hence,

Sum of Exterior angle as x = 60°

Sum of Interior angle as y = 120°

The number of sides of a polygon is

360°÷ Sum of Exterior angles

= 360° ÷ 60

= 6 sides

Divide £12 between mick and sharon in the ratio 2:4
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:mick share is £4 while Sharon share is £8

Step-by-step explanation:

Money to be shared=£12

Mick : sharon=2:4

Sum of ratio=2+4=6

Mick share=2/6 x 12

Mick share=(2x12)/6

Mick share=24/6

Mick share=4

Sharon share=4/6 x 12

Sharon share=(4x12)/6

Sharon share=48/6

Sharon share=48/6

Sharon share=8

Answer:

The answer is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain the inverse of a relation you simply interchange the x and y coordinates of each pair.

Here:

(3,1) becomes (1,3)

(3,1) becomes ((1,3)

(7, -7) becomes (-7,7) and

(12, -15) becomes (-15, 12)

What is the equation of the line containing the points (3,1), (9,3) and (27,9)
aleksley [76]

Answer:

y = (1/3)x

Step-by-step explanation:

If this is truly a line, then we can find its equation using any two of the three given points.  If we go from (3, 1) to (27, 9), x increases by 24 and y increases by 8.  Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise / run = 8 / 24, or m = 1/3.

Using the point (3, 1) and the slope m = 1/3, the slope-intercept form y = mx + b becomes 1 = (1/3)(3) + b.  Thus, b = 0, and the line is y = (1/3)x.
