Three polygons have been divided
into triangles by drawing a
segment from one vertex to all nonadjacent vertices. If n is the
number of sides in the polygon, which expression shows the
number of triangles created by each polygon?
A.n
B.(n + 2)
C.(n - 2)
D.3n, 4n, 8n
Answers
The relationship between the sides of the polygon and the triangle follows an arithmetic sequence
The expression that represents the number of triangles is (c) n - 2
From the diagrams, we have:
Sides Triangles
5 3
6 4
8 6
The above can be represented as functions as follows:
[tex]f(5) = 3[/tex]
[tex]f(6) = 4[/tex]
[tex]f(8) = 6[/tex]
Express 6 as 8 - 2
[tex]f(8) = 8 - 2[/tex]
Express 8 as n
[tex]f(n) = n - 2[/tex]
So, the expression that represents the number of triangles is (c) n - 2

Hello, would be very nice if someone could help me ! :)
A finite geometric series is the sum of a sequence of numbers. Take the sequence
1, 2, 4, 8, ..., for example. Notice that each number is twice the value of the
previous number. So, a number in the sequence can be represented by the
function f(n) = 2^n-1. One way to write the sum of the sequence through the 5th
number in the sequence is ∑^5 n-1 2^n-1.
This equation can also be written as S5 = 2^0+2^1+ 2^2+ 2^3+ 2^4. If we multiply this equation by 2. the equation becomes 2(S5) = 2^1+ 2^2+ 2^3+ 2^4+ 2^5
What happens if you subtract the two equations and solve for S5? Can you use this information to come up with a way to find any geometric series Sn in the
form ∑^a n-1 b^n-1 ?

A calf weighs 18 lbs. when it is 2 months old, and after 8 months it weighs 36 lbs.
Let x be the calf's age and y be the weight.
a. Write an equation in slope-intercept form that represents the situation.
Answers
The equation in slope-intercept form that represents the situation is y = 3x + 12
A linear equation is on the form:
y = mx + b
where y, x are variables, m is the rate of change and b is the initial value of y.
Let x be the calf's age in month and y be the weight.
A calf weighs 18 lbs. when it is 2 months old, and after 8 months it weighs 36 lbs. Hence it can be represented by:
(2, 18) and (8, 36). The equation is given by:
[tex]y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)\\\\y-18=\frac{36-18}{8-2}(x-2) \\\\y=3x+12[/tex]
The equation in slope-intercept form that represents the situation is y = 3x + 12

1 and 2 are two different problems
Answers
Answer:
1. x^2 +2x -24 = 0
2. x^2 -7x +10 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
If you look at the factored and expanded forms of a quadratic with solutions p and q, you see ...
(x -p)(x -q) = x^2 -(p+q) +pq
The x-term coefficient is the opposite of the sum of solutions.
The constant is the product of solutions.
This knowledge lets you write down the standard form equation with no particular effort.
1. x^2 +2x -24 = 0
2. x^2 -7x +10 = 0
