Answer:

The number is: 120

Step-by-step explanation:

We have one-half of "a" decreased by 20 is 40

This means that:

(1/2)a-20=40

(1/2)a=60

a=120

Parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

in a Standard from equation, Ax+By=C

slope=-A/B

Choose the best answer that represents the property used to rewrite the expression.
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

The Quotient Property.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since all three logarithms have the same base (base-5), and you are subtracting 6 and 3, to solve this all you need to do is 6 / 3 because of the Quotient Property.

You aren't multiplying anything, so you wouldn't use the Product Property.

You are not messing around with powers, so you wouldn't use the Power Property.

And you aren't using addition or multiplication, so you wouldn't use the Commutative Property.

Hope this helps!

Find the area of the polygon.
professor190 [17]
The formula for the area of the triangles is base x hight divided by 2 (bh/2)
The formula for the square is length times width (l x w)

therefore...

bh/2 = (12)(6) / 2 = 36 (this is the area of one triangle)

then you need to times 36 by 4 because you have 4 triangles.
36 x 4 = 144

l x w = 12 x 12 = 144 (this is the area of the square)

last you need to add the area of the triangles (144) and the area of the square (144) because that will give you the total surface area of the shape.

144+144= 288

so your answer is 288cm squared (288cm2)
