Answer:
10 sides (decagon)
Step-by-step explanation:
You find the perimeter by adding up all the sides of a shape.
side + side + side + side... = perimeter
You know that <em>each</em> side is 4/5 centimeters. You also know that the perimeter is 8 centimeters.
<u>You can set up an equation like this:</u>
4/5 * number of sides = 8
<em>or you can write it in a simpler form as:</em>
4/5x=8
<u>Now solve it like a normal equation:</u>
5 * (4/5x) = (8) * 5
(4x) / 4=(40) / 4
x = 10
So, you know the shape has 10 sides that are 4/5 centimeters each.
For this case we have the following conversion of units:
Thus, applying the conversion of units we have:
Then, the distance traveled for 5 seconds is given by:

Answer:
he has completed 52 meters of the 80-meter race
Answer:
y = (3/5)x+26/5 or 5y = 3x+26
Step-by-step explanation:
Applying,
The equation of a line in two point form
(y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁) = (y-y₁)/(x-x₁)............... Equation 1
From the question,
Given: y₂ = 7, y₁ = 4, x₂ = 3, x₁ = -2
Substitute these values into equation 1
(7-4)/[3-(-2)] = (y-4)/(x+2)
3/5 = (y-4)/(x+2)
5(y-4) = 3(x+2)
5y-20 = 3x+6
5y = 3x+6+20
5y = 3x+26
y = (3/5)x+26/5
Hence the equation of the line is y = (3/5)x+26/5 or 5y = 3x+26
You multiply the $5687.50 by 0.8 to get the total of $4550.
So Hua raised $4550 out of the $5687.50.
