Answer 1

(5) c

(6) c

(7) b

(8) a

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
`(-11)/(15)` is
`(-15)/(11)`

(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;

`(11m)/(11) = (66)/(11)`

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°
