Answer:

y = -5/4x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (-3 - 2)/(-4 - -8) = -5/4

Given (-8,2)

y = mx + b

2 = -5/4(-8) + b

2 = 10 + b

b = -8

y = -5/4x - 8

the exterior angle of a regular polygon is one third the size of its interior angle. how many sides does the polygon have

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

8 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the exterior angle then 3x is the interior angle

interior angle + exterior angle = 180° , then

x + 3x = 180

4x = 180 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 45

the sum of the exterior angles of a polygon = 360°

since the polygon is regular with each exterior angle = 45°, then

number of sides = 360° ÷ 45° = 8

If n+h/5=f+9/9, then n/5=

Ann [662]

------------------------------------------------------------------
Question
------------------------------------------------------------------
$\boxed { \frac{n+h}{5} = \frac{f+9}{9}}$

------------------------------------------------------------------
Split the fraction on the left
------------------------------------------------------------------
$\boxed { \frac{n}{5} + \frac{h}{5} = \frac{f + 9}{9}}$

------------------------------------------------------------------
Take away h/5 from both sides
------------------------------------------------------------------
$\boxed { \frac{n}{5} = \frac{f+9}{9} - \frac{h}{5}}$

------------------------------------------------------------------
Change the denominator to be the same
------------------------------------------------------------------
$\boxed { \frac{n}{5} = \frac{5f+45}{45} - \frac{9h}{45}}$

------------------------------------------------------------------
Put it into single fraction
------------------------------------------------------------------
$\boxed { \frac{n}{5} = \frac{5f+45-9h}{45} }$

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Rearrange (This step may not be necessary)
------------------------------------------------------------------
$\boxed {\frac{n}{5} = \frac{5f-9h+ 45}{45} }$

$\bf \Longrightarrow \ Answer \ : \boxed {\boxed {\frac{n}{5} = \frac{5f-9h+ 45}{45} }}$
