Answer:
Muchos de los problemas de las ciencias, economía, finanzas, medicina y otros numerosos campos se pueden traducir a problemas de álgebra. Ésta es una razón por la
que el álgebra es tan útil. En esta sección usamos las ecuaciones como modelos
matemáticos para resolver problemas de la vida cotidiana.
Criterios para modelar con ecuaciones
Se aplican los siguientes criterios para plantear ecuaciones que modelen situaciones
formuladas en palabras. Para mostrar la manera en que los criterios pueden ayudar a
plantear las ecuaciones, anotamos al margen cuándo funciona cada ejemplo de esta
sección
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Decagon
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the general equation to determine the sum of interior angles:

Since we know the sum of interior angles (I.A.) is 1440°, we must figure out n - the number of sides and so:

Since n=10 this means that it is a 10 sided shape meaning it's a decagon.
Answer:
Third side is 15cm. Perimeter is 37cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a triangle sum of two sides is always greater than third side. Two sides of a isosceles triangle are equal.
So if the third side is 7cm
7+7=14cm which is less than 15 cm.
hence third side is 15 cm as
15+15=30cm which is greater than 7cm
15+7=22cm which is greater than 12cm
then
perimeter=15+7+15=37cm
We can use PEMDAS to help us:
P - Parenthesis
E - Exponents
M - Multiplication
D - Division
A - Addition
S - Subtraction
PEMDAS states what occurs first in order of which letter pertains to which mathematical operation and how you are suppose to do it from left to right. Since multiplication and division comes before addition and subtraction, we know C isn't the answer since it is subtraction. This leaves us with A, B, and D. They all happen to be either multiplication and division. Although multiplication SEEMS to come before division, multiplication and division are actually paired together (just like addition and subtraction) meaning that if either a multiplication or division comes before a division and multiplication operation, you do it left to right. For example, 2 x 2/2. You do 2 x 2 first equaling 4 and then divide by 2 to get 2. Another example is 10/2 x 5. You DO NOT do multiplication first since multiplication and division are paired together meaning you do 10/2 equaling 5 and then do 5 x 5 equaling 25. Enough explanation for that part. Since 20/4 is the first multiplication/division operation, that is what you do first. The answer is A.
