Answer:

it would be difficult (or at least somewhat confusing) to try to diagram out this question with a drawing on a number line....

the concept here is that the -5, and -2 are NOT "subtracting" but "opposites"

so on a number line you can start at "-5" and draw an arrow to 5 and do the same for "-2"

then show the multiplication as a series of additions (5 2's added together)

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the length of MN

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

value of x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

∠L = ∠n

So,

ML = MN

So,

3x = x + 10

2x = 10

x = 5

value of x = 5

(7)(8)(9) Geometry Check Ans 7) s = 15 8) y = 64 x = 99 9) 96

Katyanochek1 [597]

Problem 7: Correct
Problem 8: Correct
Problem 9: Correct

The steps are below if you are curious

===========================================================================================

Problem 7

S = 180*(n-2)
2340 = 180*(n-2)
2340/180 = n-2
13 = n-2
n-2 = 13
n = 13+2
n = 15

I'm using n in place of lowercase s, but the idea is the same. If anything, it is better to use n for the number of sides since S already stands for the sum of the interior angles. I'm not sure why your teacher decided to swap things like that.

===========================================================================================

Problem 8

First find y
y+116 = 180
y+116-116 = 180-116
y = 64

which is then used to find x. The quadrilateral angles add up to 180*(n-2) = 180*(4-2) = 360 degrees
Add up the 4 angles, set the sum equal to 360, solve for x

x+y+125+72 = 360
x+64+125+72 = 360 ... substitution (plug in y = 64)
x+261 = 360
x+261-261 = 360-261
x = 99

===========================================================================================

Problem 9

With any polygon, the sum of the exterior angles is always 360 degrees

The first two exterior angles add to 264. The missing exterior angle is x
x+264 = 360
x+264-264 = 360-264
x = 96

Which two equations are true?(2×10−4)+(1.5×10−4)=3.5×10−4(3×10−5)+(2.2×10−5)=6.6×10−10 (6.3×10−1)−(2.1×10−1)=3×10−1(5.4×103)−(2.

tiny-mole [99]

let me edit your question as:

Which two equations are true?

Eq1:

(2×10−4)+(1.5×10−4)=3.5×10−4(3×10−5)+(2.2×10−5)

Eq2:

6.6×10−10(6.3×10−1)−(2.1×10−1)=3×10−1(5.4×103)−(2.7×103)

Eq3:

2.7×103(7.5×106)−(2.5×106)=5×100

Answer:

No one is true

Step-by-step explanation:

let's check each equation, if the values on both sides (left and right side) are equal then the equation is true otherwise false.

Using PEMDAS rule we are simplifying the equations as;

Eq1:

$(2*10-4)+(1.5*10-4)=3.5*10-4(3*10-5)+(2.2*10-5)\\(16)+(11)=35-4(25)+(17)\\27=35-100+17\\27=-48\\$

Eq2:

$6.6*10-10(6.3*10-1)-(2.1*10-1)=3*10-1(5.4*103)-(2.7*103)\\66-10(62)-(20)=30-1(556.2)-278.1\\66-620-20=30-556.2-278.1\\-574=-804.1$

Eq3:

$2.7*103(7.5*106)-(2.5*106)=5*100\\221089.5-265=500\\220824.5=500\\$

we observed that none of the equation has two same values on both sides thus none of the three equations is true.

Also, no value of Eq1, Eq2 or Eq3 are same thus none of the equation is true
