Answer:
(5) c
(6) c
(7) b
(8) a
Step-by-step explanation:
(5) The multiplicative inverse of a number n, is the number which when multiplied by n will give a result of 1 which is a multiplicative identity. The multiplicative inverse of a number is actually the reciprocal of that number. For example, the multiplicative inverse of n is 1/n. The multiplicative inverse of 5 is 1/5. The multiplicative inverse of 5/6 is 6/5.
Therefore, the multiplicative inverse of [tex]\frac{-11}{15}[/tex] is [tex]\frac{-15}{11}[/tex]
(6) To solve 7m + 12 = -4m + 78, follow these steps;
i. Collect like terms by putting terms with m on the left hand side and the terms without m on the right hand side as follows;
7m + 4m = 78 - 12
ii. Now solve both sides;
11m = 66
iii. Divide both sides by 11;
[tex]\frac{11m}{11} = \frac{66}{11}[/tex]
m = 6
(7) Let the number be x;
10 more than twice number is 22 implies that
10 + 2x = 22
Now solve the equation;
2x = 22 - 10
2x = 12
x = 6
(8) The interior angles of a given polygon are the angles of its vertices that are within or inside of the polygon.
The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is given by;
(n-2) x 180°
where;
n = number of sides of the polygon.
For example;
For a triangle, which has n = 3 sides, the sum of these interior angles is (3 - 2) x 180° = 180°
For a rectangle/square, which has n = 4 sides, the sum of these interior angles is (4 - 2) x 180° = 360°.
For a pentagon, which has n = 5 sides, the sum of these interior angles is (5 - 2) x 180° = 540°
Therefore, depending on the number of sides n, the sum of the interior angles of a given polygon is given by;
(n-2) x 180°
