the number of diagonals that can be drawn in a opolygon of n sides is 1/2n(n-1)-n. If 230 diagonsaals can be drawn how many sides does the polygon have'

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

n = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of diagonal that can be drawn in a polygon of n sides is given by :

[tex]D=\dfrac{n(n-3)}{2}[/tex]

If the number of diagonals are 230, then put D = 230 in above formula. So,

[tex]230=\dfrac{n(n-3)}{2}\\\\460=n^2-3n\\\\n^2-3n-460=0[/tex]

It is a quadratic equation, the value of n is equal to 20.

It means that for 230 diagonal, there are 20 sides of the polygon.

Mrs. Zhang's bee farm has a population that is about 1 tenth as large as Mr. Doyle's bee farm. If Mrs. Zhang's bee population is about 46,000, about how many bees does Mr. Doyle have?

Answers

Answer:

Mr. Doyle has 460000 bees

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that Mrs. Zhang's bee farm has a population that is about 1 tenth as large as Mr. Doyle's bee farm.

Thus;

Population size of Mrs. Zhang's bee farm = 1/10 × population size of Mr. Doyle's bee farm

Now, we are given that Mrs. Zhang's bee population is about 46,000.

Thus, from the earlier equation, we have;

46000 = 1/10 × population size of Mr. Doyle's bee farm

Thus, when we multiply both sides by 10,we get;

population size of Mr. Doyle's bee farm = 46000 × 10 = 460000 bees

Factoring the expression 20a^3b^3 – 24a^5b^2 + 4a^3b^2 gives a new expression of the form
Ua^xb^y (Wa^2 + Vb+ z), where U > 0.
What is the value of U?
What is the value of W?
What is the value of V?
What is the value of Z?
What is the value of x?
What is the value of y?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]U = 4\\W = -6\\V = 5\\Z = 1\\x = 3\\y = 2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Then given expression is:

[tex]20a^3b^3-24a^5b^2+4a^3b^2[/tex]

To express the given expression in the form:

[tex]Ua^xb^y(Wa^2+Vb+Z)[/tex]

and to find the values of [tex]U, W, V, Z, x, y[/tex].

First of all, let us check the maximum common powers of [tex]a, b[/tex] in each term from the given expression.

The maximum common power of [tex]a[/tex] is 3 and

The maximum common power of [tex]b[/tex]  is 2.

So, we can take [tex]a^3b^2[/tex] common out of each term.

And maximum common coefficient that can be taken out common is 4.

Taking 4[tex]a^3b^2[/tex] common from each term of given expression, we get:

[tex]4a^3b^2(-6a^2+5b+1)[/tex]

Now, let us compare the given term with:

[tex]4a^3b^2(-6a^2+5b+1)[/tex] = [tex]Ua^xb^y(Wa^2+Vb+Z)[/tex]

Now, the values that we get the following values:

[tex]U = 4\\W = -6\\V = 5\\Z = 1\\x = 3\\y = 2[/tex]

which is our answer.

how would one go about solving this graph?

Answers

Density = Mass/Volume
Mass= Density x volume
Volume= mass/density

Density = Mass / Volume, so you could use that information to solve for each value in the graph.

2. Mass = Density * Volume = 8.07 * 1.04 = 8.59 g

3. Volume = Mass / Density = 8.26 / 8.10 = 1.02 mL

4. Density = Mass / Volume = 7.91 / 0.99 = 7.99 g/mL

5. Mass = Density * Volume = 8.05 * 0.98 = 7.89 g

6. Volume = Mass / Density = 8.53 / 8.05 = 1.06 mL

In the given diagram, if AP = 15 cm, AQ = 24 cm and PB + QC = 26 cm, find QC – PB, given PQ || BC.

Answers

Answer:

QC - PB = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given PQ is parallel to BC then it divides the sides proportionally, that is

[tex]\frac{AP}{AQ}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{PB}{QC}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{15}{24}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] , then

[tex]\frac{PB}{QC}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

8PB = 5QC → *

Given PB + QC = 26 , then

PB = 26 - QC

Substitute into *

8(26 - QC) = 5QC ← distribute left side

208 - 8QC = 5QC ( subtract 5QC from both sides )

208 - 13QC = 0 ( subtract 208 from both sides )

- 13QC = - 208 ( divide both sides by - 13 )

QC = 16

Thus PB = 26 - QC = 26 - 16 = 10

QC - PB = 16 - 10 = 6

Answers

Answer:

60°, 60°, and 60° is the set of interior angles of triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Set of interior angles

90°, 42°, and 58° 60°, 60°, and 60° 100°, 48°, and 42° 31°, 75°, and 70°

Find:

Set of interior angles of triangle

Computation:

We know that, sum of  interior angles of triangle is 180°

So,

90° + 42° + 58° = 190°

60° + 60° + 60° = 180°

100° + 48° + 42° = 190°

31° + 75° + 70° = 176°

So,

60°, 60°, and 60° is the set of interior angles of triangle.

it means that their sum is alpha+beta=1 and their product alpha*beta=-2.

The polynomial whose zeroes are 2 alpha + 1 and 2 beta + 1, means that the sum of its zeroes is 2(alpha+beta)+2=2+2=4

Determine the standard form of the equation of the line that passes through (-2,0) and (-8,5)

Answers

Answer:  5/6x + 1y = -5/3   or       5x + 6y = -10

 

Step-by-step explanation:

First  you need to write an equation in slope intercept form and convert  it to Standard form. To write an equation in slope intercept form using the coordinates we need to find the slope and the y-intercept.

The slope is the change in y over the change in x.

0-5 = -5

-2-(-8) = 6

Slope  is  -5/6  

  Now find the y intercept   using the formula y =mx + b   where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

5 = -5/6(-8) + b

5 = 40/6 +b

-40/6   -40/6

b= -5/3

 So now the equation is  y= -5/6x - 5/3

  So now write it in standard form as  ax+by = c  where x is constant.

 y = -5/6x -5/3

       +5/6x

5/6x + 1y = -5/3  now you can multiply it by 6 to get rid of the fractions.

5/6x(6) + y(6) = -5/3(6)

  5x + 6y = -10

A product has a production cost function ​C(x)x and a revenue function ​R(x)x. Find and analyze the​ break-even quantity, then find the profit function.

Answers

A product has a production cost function ​C(x) =165x + 3630 and a revenue function ​R(x)= 220x. Find and analyze the​ break-even quantity, then find the profit function.

Answer:

the break-even  quantity = 66

the profit function = 55x - 3630

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

C(x) = 165x + 3630

R(x) = 220 x

The Break-even quantity is C(x) = R(x)

165x + 3630 = 220x

collecting the like terms, we have:

3630 = 220 x - 165 x

3630 = 55 x

[tex]x = \dfrac{3630}{55}[/tex]

x = 66

Thus, the break-even  quantity = 66

The profit function = R(x) - C(x)

The profit function = 220x - 3630 - 165x

By rearrangement

The profit function = 220x - 165x - 3630

The profit function = 55x - 3630

Brenna went on vacation and sent postcards to all of her family and friends. She needed 45
postcards, but the store only sold them in packs of 12. She bought 4 packs. How many
postcards did she have left over?

Answers

Answer:
3 postcards

Explanation:
So the question says that Brenna bought 4 packs of 12 postcards, which is the same as 4x12.

4x12=48, so Brenna bought 48 postcards.

It says that she only needed 45, so we can subtract 45 from 48.

48-45=3

Brenna had three postcards left over.

The credit remaining on a phone card (in dollars) is a linear function of the total calling time made with the card (in minutes). The remaining credit after minutes of calls is , and the remaining credit after minutes of calls is . What is the remaining credit after minutes of calls?

Answers

Answer and Step-by-step explanation: Suppose remaining credit is y and time in minutes is x. To determine a value of y corresponding to a value of x, first find the equation for the function.

Since the function is linear, the equation is of the form: y = mx + b. To determine it:

1) Find slope, or inclination, of the line:

slope (m) = [tex]\frac{y_{b}-y_{a}}{x_{b}-x_{a}}[/tex]

where x's and y's are points of the function.

2) Determine the y-intercept, or b: Use a point of the function, replace them at the equation, y = mx + b, and find b.

3) The equation will be: y = mx + b

With the equation, replace x for the minutes the question is asking and calculate to find the remaining credit.

Th result will be a pair (x,y)
