Since -2i can be rephrased as -2*i, we can rewrite the whole thing as -2*i*-2*i. Using the Commutative property, we can multiply the constants and the i's to get 4*i^2=4*(-1) as i^2=-1 and we end up with 4*(-1)=-4

what percent of 50 is 18

Answers

Greetings!

To find the percent of a number, you mutliply the percent by the number, then divide by 100. We can use this rule to create an equation:
[tex]50*x/100=18[/tex]
Multiply both sides by 100.
[tex](50x/100)*100=(18)*100[/tex]
Simplify.
[tex]50x=1800[/tex]
Divide both sides by 50.
[tex](50x)/50=(1800)/50[/tex]
Simplify.
[tex]x=36[/tex]

36% of 50 is 18.

Write and solve a proportion to answer the question. What number a is 70% of 70

Answers

percent means parts out of 100
so 70%=70/100


'of' means multiply


we can do
[tex]\frac{x}{70}=\frac{70}{100}[/tex]
that's the prooprtion

solving
[tex]\frac{x}{70}=\frac{70}{100}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{x}{70}=\frac{7}{10}[/tex]
times both sides by 70
[tex]x=\frac{490}{10}[/tex]
[tex]x=49[/tex]

the number is 49

The number that is 70 percent of the number 70 will be 49.

What is the percentage?

The amount of any product is given as though it was a proportion of a hundred. The ratio can be expressed as a quarter of 100. The phrase % translates for one hundred percent. It is symbolized by the character '%'.

The percentage is given as,

Percentage (P) = [Final value - Initial value] / Initial value x 100

Let the number be 'x'. Then the equation is given as,

x = 70% of the 70

Simplify the equation, then the value of the number is calculated as,

x = 70% of the 70

x = 0.70 × 70

x = 49

The number is 49.

It is 5 5/8 because you have to change them both into improper fractions so 2 1/2 turns into 5/2 and 2 1/4 changes to 9/4 so you have 5/2 * 9/4 but you need to be able to multiply them so the 5/2 changes to 10/4 so 9/4 * 10/4 = 5 5/8 :)

What is 90% of 4732000?

Answers

4258800
Look for the value of x
Let's assume that the 4732000 is 100%
And x is 90% of the output value

Equation is:
4732000=100%
x=90%

4732000/x = 100/90
(473200/x)*x = (100/90)*x
4732000 = 1.1111111111111*x
4732000 = 1.1111111111111 = x
4258800 = x

90% = 0.90

4732000 x 0.90 = 4,258,800

The expression to find the perimeter of a rectangle is 2(length + width). What is the perimeter, in units, of a rectangle of length fraction 1 over 7 unit and width fraction 1 over 2 unit?

Answers

P = 2(L + W)
L = 1/7
W = 1/2

P = 2(L + W)
P = 2(1/7 + 1/2)
P = 2(2/14 + 7/14)
P = 2(9/14)
P = 18/14 which reduces to 9/7 or 1 2/9 <==

Answer:

perimeter of rectangle is 9/7 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is given by

Perimeter = 2(length + width)

Given that

[tex]length=\frac{1}{7}\\\\width=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Substituting these values in the above formula

[tex]P=2(\frac{1}{7}+\frac{1}{2})[/tex]

Add the fractions. The LCD is 14. So, multiply and divide by 14

[tex]P=\frac{2}{14}(\frac{1}{7}\times14+\frac{1}{2}\times14)\\\\P=\frac{1}{7}(2+7)\\\\P=\frac{9}{7}[/tex]

Thus, perimeter of rectangle is 9/7 units.

Kendall knows that a 45-ounce pitcher can hold enough lemonade for 6 people. At this rate, how many ounces of lemonade will Kendall need to serve 26 people?

Answers

To find how many ounces we need for 26, we have to find a factor of 6 and 26, find how many ounces we need for that many people, and multiply it to get it to 26 people. Since 6 and 26 are both even, we know that they both have 2 as a factor. In addition, since 6/3=2, we can divide 45 by 3 to get how many ounces of lemonade we need for 2 people - 45/3=15 ounces. In addition, since we know that 26/13=2, we need to multiply 15 by 13 to see how many ounces we need for 26 people, which is 195

Evaluate Each Expression: | 4/13 |

Answers

I believe the answer is 3.25

The expression | 4/13 | evaluates to 4/13 because the absolute value of a positive number is the number itself.

The student's question asks to evaluate the expression | 4/13 |, which involves the use of absolute value. The absolute value of a number is the distance of that number from 0 on the number line, regardless of the direction. Therefore, the absolute value of any positive or negative number is a positive number, and the absolute value of 0 is 0 itself.

In this case, since 4/13 is a positive number, its absolute value is the same as the number itself. So the evaluation of the expression | 4/13 | is simply 4/13.

What is 1.47 x 10 minus 3.56 x 10

Answers

So following the order of operations, you should first do the multiplication and then the subtraction.

So:

1.47 * 10 - 3.56 * 10

After doing the multiplication, we get

14.7 - 35.6

And then after subtracting

-20.9

So your answer is -20.9
Hi there! I'll walk you through.

First, when you multiply a decimal by a 10, 100, 1000, etc. you need to move the decimal n spaces to the right, where n is how many 0's are in the multiple.

So, 1.47 * 10 = 14.7

Remember PEMDAS. Now we need to do the other side.

3.56 * 10 = 35.6

Now, subtract!

14.7 - 35.6 = -20.9

Why doesn’t zero have an opposite

Answers

zero does not have a opposite, because it is not a positive number nor a negative number. It has no reciprocal either

hope this helps

Final answer:

Zero does not have an opposite because it is the identity element in addition; adding zero to any number yields that number without change. Zero's opposite is itself since 0 + 0 = 0. The concept of an 'opposite' is inapplicable for zero displacement or the null vector in vector algebra due to their lack of direction and magnitude.

Explanation:

The question is asking why zero does not have an opposite. In mathematics, zero is unique because it is the only real number that is neither positive nor negative. When we talk about the opposite of a number, we typically mean a number that, when added to the original number, yields zero. For any non-zero number, its opposite is the number with the same magnitude but a different sign. However, zero is the identity element for addition, which means that when you add zero to any number, you get the same number back without any change. Therefore, zero's opposite is itself, because 0 + 0 = 0.

In the context of displacement and vectors, an opposite might refer to direction rather than a notion of being negative or positive. For instance, a displacement of -100 m represents a movement of 100 m in the direction opposite of the chosen positive direction. However, zero displacement means no movement at all, so there can't be an opposite direction.

To elaborate on the concept, when dealing with vector algebra, the equivalent of zero is the null vector, which has no magnitude or direction. Therefore, it doesn't have an opposite because there is no direction or magnitude to invert or negate. Similarly, for an object making a round trip and returning to its starting point, there's zero displacement because its starting and ending points are the same, despite any distance traveled during its journey. This is another instance where zero's unique properties make the concept of an opposite meaningless.

When the divisor is a decimal, what must we do?              

1) Multiply the divisor by 10, or 100, or 1000, etc., according to the number of decimal digits, so that it becomes a whole number.

 2)Multiply the dividend by the same power of 10.

Question (2)

When asked to add or subtract decimals, the most important step is to line up the decimal points. Step 1: Line up the decimal points so that similar place values are lined up. In other words, the tens place in both numbers should be lined up, the ones place in both numbers should be lined up, etc.

Question (3)

To multiply decimals: Set up and multiply the numbers as you do with whole numbers. Count the total number of decimal places in both of the factors. Place the decimal point in the product so that the number of decimal places in the product is the sum of the decimal places in the factors.

The assembly of a machine takes 3/4 hour there are 12 steps in the assembly process what is the average time for each step

Answers

Final answer:

The average time for each step in the assembly process is 3.75 minutes per step.

Explanation:

To find the average time for each step in the assembly process, we need to divide the total time taken by the number of steps. In this case, the assembly takes 3/4 hour, which is equivalent to 45 minutes. There are 12 steps in the process. So, to find the average time per step, we divide 45 minutes by 12:

Average time per step = 45 minutes / 12 = 3.75 minutes per step.

(x-4)(x+4)(x-7) is greater than or equal to 0

Answers

If (x-4)(x+4)(x-7)≥0, we know that if x=4, -4, or 7 then the expression equals 0. After that, we want to know when x is greater than 0 by plugging in numbers between, after, and before these numbers. Before -4, we can plug in, for example, 5, to get (-9)(-1)(-12). Since there are 3 (an odd number) negative numbers, we know it is less than 0 and since -4 is the smallest number out of the 3 given (4, -4, -7), anything less than -4 is negative. Between -4 and 4, we could test 0 out, getting (-4)(4)(-7). Since there are 2 negative numbers (an even number of them), this is positive as is with anything between -4 and 4. Between 4 and 7, we can plug in 5, getting
(1)(9)(-2) which has one negative number (an odd number) which is therefore negative. For anything more than 7, we can plug 8 in, getting 
(4)(12)(1) which has 0 negative numbers and is therefore positive.

Summing it up, anything less than -4 is negative, between -4 and 4 is positive, between 4 and 7 is negative, and anything higher than 7 is positive. Do you see the pattern? We started with something, and flip flopped till the end.

A yard is equal in length to three feet. The function f(x) takes a measurement in yards (as input) and returns a measurement in feet (as output). What number will the function return if the input is 15.4?

Answers

The output will be 46.2 since the input normally is 1 and the output is 3. So multiply the input by 3 to get your output.

Answer:


This may be perfectly expressed in a Rule of Three as:

If 1 yard is equal to 3 feet

15.4 yards are equal to x feet

1 yard-----3feet

15.4 yards------x

Then:

[tex]x=\frac{(15.4 yards)(3 feet)}{1 yard}[/tex]

[tex]x=46.2 feet[/tex]


Therefore the answer is 46.2 feet

Each wrestler maintains a ranking that affects every slice of life; how much money he makes, how large an entourage he carries, how much he gets to eat, sleep, and otherwise take advantage of his success. The sixty-six highest-ranked wrestlers in Japan, comprising the makuuchi and juryo divisions, make up the sumo elite. A wrestler near the top of this elite pyramid may earn millions and is treated like royalty. Any wrestler in the top forty earns at least $170,000 a year. The seventieth-ranked wrestler in Japan, meanwhile, earns only $15,000 a year. Life isnt very sweet outside the elite. Low-ranked wrestlers must tend to their superiors, preparing their meals and cleaning their quarters and even soaping up their hardest-to-reach body parts. So ranking is everything. A wrestlers ranking is based on his performance in the elite tournaments that are held six times a year. Each wrestler has fifteen bouts per tournament, one per day over fifteen consecutive days. If he finishes the tournament with a winning record (eight victories or better), his ranking will rise. If he has a losing record, his ranking falls. If it falls far enough, he is booted from the elite rank entirely. The eighth victory in any tournament is therefore critical, the difference between promotion and demotion; it is roughly four times as valuable in the rankings as the typical victory. Based on the excerpt, which statement provides the best example of incentive for a sumo wrestler to cheat?Sumo wrestling is revered in a way that American sports can never be.
