Answer:

6 Vertices

Step-by-step explanation:

The Euler Formula states that for any polyhedron, if you add together the number of faces(F) and vertices(V), and subtract the number of edges(E), the answer is always two:

F + V - E = 2

8 + V - 12 = 2

∴ V = 2 - 8 + 12 = 6

Hi

Use Euler's formula for this for a 3D figure. F + V = E + 2, where F is the number of faces, V is the number of vertices, E is the number of edges, +2! You have enough info to fill in the formula to find that the number of vertices is 6.

Y varies directly with x. If y=25 when x=5, find y when x =-4<br><br>y =

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

y = -20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y varies directly with x it means changing x will also cause change in y

Mathematically it can be written as:

y∝x

Removing the proportionality symbol

y = kx

Given y=25 when x=5 Putting the values

$25 = k(5)\\k = \frac{25}{5}\\k = 5$

Now

$y = 5x$

We have to find the value of y when x = -4

Putting x=-4

$y = 5(-4)\\y = -20$

Hence,,

y = -20

What is the slope of a line that contains the points (12,17) and (-8,-17)

professor190 [17]

$\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}$
$\frac{ - 17 - 17}{ - 8 - 12} = \frac{ - 34}{ - 20} = \frac{17}{10}$
Alternative forms:
$1 \frac{7}{10} \: or \: 1.7$
Slope: 17/10
Equation : y= 17/10x
