so 120 - 39 is 80 then minus the basketball and you get fortyfor
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of interior angles of a 5-sided polygon is 540 degrees.
We sum all the angles to get:
<M+<L+<N+<O+<P=540
90+90+(17x+4)+(18x+6)+(10x-10)=540
45x+180=540
45x=540-180
45x=360
x=8
N=18*8+6
It's a simultaneous equation:
Steps:
1.Number the equations..
a+b=77 -1
a-b=13 -2
2. Choose what variable you want to use. In this case I would use the "b". Since the signs in front of the "b's" are different, add the two equations together
a + b = 77
+ + +
a (-b) = 13
Which gives;
2a = 90
Then solve to find a:
2a=90
a= 90/2
a=45
3.Then plug the "a" value into any of the original equations to find the "b" value. I would use equation 1 since the all the variables are positive.
a + b = 77
(45) + b = 77
b=77-45
b=32
4.Solution
a=45
b=32
