¿Cuál propiedad de los números complejos se muestra a continuación?
(2+31)+(5 - 41)=(5-41)+(2+31)
A asociativa
B distributiva
C inverso aditivo
D conmutativa

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D) conmutativa

Step-by-step explanation:

Propiedad conmutativa: Cuando se suman o multiplican dos números, la suma o el producto es el mismo independientemente del orden en que

los números se suman o multiplican.

Se da como:

a + b = b + a

a × b = b × a

Propiedad distributiva: La suma de dos números por un tercer número es igual  a la suma de cada número sumado por el tercer número. Se da como:

a × (b + c) = (a × b) + (a × c)

Propiedad asociativa:  Se da como:

a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c

a × (b × c) = (a × b) × c

Propiedad  inverso aditivo:  Se da como

a + (-a) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

smith will run out by week 2

Answer:

After 17 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

We can create a system of equations for this problem, where y is the total amount of money in their banks and x is the amount of weeks passed.

Mr. Smith's equation will be [tex]y = 12x+21[/tex].

Mr. Brown's equation will be [tex]y = 10x+55[/tex].

We can now solve for x by using substitution.

Let's substitute Mr. Brown's equation into Mr. Smith's equation.

This get us [tex]10x + 55 = 12x + 21[/tex].

We can now solve for x.

Let's subtract 12x from both sides:

[tex]-2x + 55 = 21[/tex]

And now let's subtract 21 from both sides:

[tex]-2x+34=0[/tex]

Now we subtract 34 from both sides:

[tex]-2x=-34[/tex]

And divide both sides by -2.

[tex]x=17[/tex]

h(t)= (t+3)^2 + 5

What is the average rate of change of h over the interval -5 < t < -1?

Answers

Answer:

The average rate of change for the given function in the interval (-5, -1) is 0 (zero)

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of a function over an interval is the quotient between the difference between the function evaluated at the ends of the interval divided by the length of the interval. That is for our case:

the average rte of change of h(t) in the interval (-5, -1) is:

[tex]\frac{h(-1)-h(-5)}{-1+5}[/tex]

so we find:

[tex]h(-1)=(-1+3)^2+5=2^2+5=4+5=9\\and\\h(-5)=(-5+3)^2+5=(-2)^2+5=4+5=9[/tex]

then the average rate of change becomes:

[tex]\frac{h(-1)-h(-5)}{-1+5}=\frac{9-9}{4} =\frac{0}{4} =0[/tex]

If the ladder is 16 feet long and the window ledge is 12 feet off the ground, how far from
the house is the base of the ladder?

Answers

Answer:

10.58 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

If you think about how it would look in life you will notice that it looks like a right triangle which means we can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the far the ladder needs to be from the house.

The Pythagorean theorem is [tex]a^{2}+ b^{2}= c^{2}[/tex]

a is a leg

b is the other leg

c is the hypotenuse

Since the ladder has to go from the ground to the window ledge it is the hypotenuse and the window ledge is a leg

Put in what we know

[tex]a^{2} +12^{2} =16^{2}[/tex]

Now we solve for a

Simplify

a^2 + 144 = 256

Subtract 144 from both sides

a^2 = 112

Take the square root of both sides

a = 10.583

The answer is 10.58 feet

Hope this helps!

Answer:

11 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Try to imagine it or draw it out to help you. The ladder is 16 feet long and the window ledge is 12 feet high, so this is a right triangle.

The ladder is the hypotenuse, so use the given values in the pythagorean theorem.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

12 + b^2 = 16

b = 11

12^2 + 11^2 = 16^2

1 44 + 121 = 265

√265 = 16

PLEASE HELP, I DONT UNDERSTAND THIS.....Michael is laying carpet in a perfectly rectangular hall. The area of the hall is 240 square feet, and the width of the hall is 6 feet. How long is the hall?

40% of an angle is the complement of 70°.Find the angle step by step ​

Answers

Answer:

Answer:

72°

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by putting the information you’re given into an equation. The angle measure is 4 times the compliment so it has the measure 4x.

Complementary angles are two angels with a sum of 90°.

So our equation will be 4x + x = 90

Add your like terms to get 5x = 90

Divide 90 by 5 to get x by itself.

X = 18

Since the angle we’re trying to find is 4 times the compliment you’re going to multiply 18 by 4 which will give you your answer of 72°

Answer:

x = 3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

This equation can be solved with algebraic techniques. We will simplify the equation by combining like terms and then use algebraic techniques in order to solve for x.

2(x - 4) + 2x = -6x - 2 Use the distributive property.

2x - 8 + 2x = -6x - 2 Combine like terms (variable terms first).

4x - 8 = -6x - 2 Add 6x to both sides of the equation.

10x - 8 = -2 Add 8 to both sides of the equation.

10x = 6 Divide by 10 on both sides of the equation.

Find the values for k so that the intersection of x = 2k and 3x + 2y = 12 lies in the first quadrant.

Answers

Answer:

0 < k < 2

Step-by-step explanation:

In the first quadrant both of x and y get positive values, so

x > 0 and y > 0x = 2k, k > 0

And replacing x with 2k in the second equation:

3x + 2y = 123*2k + 2y = 122y= 12 - 6ky = 6 - 3k

Since y > 0:

6 - 3k> 02 - k > 0k < 2

Combining both k > 0 and k < 2, we get:

0 < k < 2

Answer:

  0 < k < 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The intersection will lie in the first quadrant when the solution has the characteristics: x > 0, y > 0.

For x > 0, we require ...

  x = 2k

  x > 0

  2k > 0 . . . . substitute for x

  k > 0 . . . . . divide by 2

__

For y > 0, we require ...

  y = (12 -3x)/2

  y = (12 -3(2k))/2 = 6 -3k . . . . . substituted for x and simplify

  y > 0

  6 -3k > 0 . . . . . . substitute for y

  2 -k > 0 . . . . . . . divide by 3

  k < 2 . . . . . . . . . add k

So, the values of k that result in the intersection being in the first quadrant are ...

3. Evaluate at the given value: g(x)=-2x+7, g^-1(-2)​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]{g}^{ - 1} ( - 2) = \frac{9}{2} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find g-¹( 2) we must first find g-¹(x)

To find g-¹(x) equate g(x) to y

That's

y = g(x)

We have

y = - 2x + 7

Now interchange the terms that's x becomes y and y becomes x

We have

x = - 2y + 7

Make y the subject in order to find g-¹(x)

Move 7 to the left side of the equation

- 2y = x - 7

Multiply both sides by - 1

We have

2y = 7 - x

Divide both sides by 2 to make y stand alone

That's

[tex]y = \frac{7 - x}{2} [/tex]

So we have

[tex]g ^{ - 1} (x) = \frac{7 - x}{2} [/tex]

Now to find g-¹(- 2) substitute the value of x that's - 2 into the expression

We have

[tex] {g}^{ - 1} ( - 2) = \frac{7 - - 2}{2} \\ {g}^{ - 1} ( - 2) = \frac{7 + 2}{2} [/tex]

We have the final answer as

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the graph of f(x) and g(x), where g(x) = f(k⋅x), determine the value of k.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]k=4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the graphs of f(x) and g(x).

And we know that g(x) is defined as  f(kx), where k is some constant.

First, from the graph we can note two points:

For g(x), we have the point (1,10) and for f(x), we have the point  (4,10).

In other words:

[tex]g(1)=10[/tex]

And since we know the g(x) is f(kx), this means that:

[tex]g(1)=10\\g(1)=10=f(1(k))=10[/tex]

And we know the for f(x) to be 10, the initial value is 4. Therefore:

[tex]f(1(k))=10=f(4)\\1k=4\\k=4[/tex]

Therefore, the value of k is 4.

Answer:

[tex]\huge \boxed{k=4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of g(x) crosses the point (1, 10).

The graph of f(x) crosses the point (4, 10).

So, g(1) = 10. The x (input) is 1. The output is 10.

f(4) = 10. The x (input) is 4. The ouput is 10.

g(1) = f(4)

g(x) = f(k ⋅ x)

g(1) = f(k ⋅ 1)

f(k ⋅ 1) = f(4)

k ⋅ 1 = 4

k = 4

A road perpendicular to a highway leads to a farmhouse located 2 km away. A car travels pastthe farmhouse on on the highway at a speed of 80 km/h. How fast is the distance between thecar and the farmhouse increasing when the car is 6 km past the intersection of the highwayand the road

Answers

Answer:

75.9 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance between the highway and farmhouse is given as = 2km = a

The distance after the intersection and the highway = b

Let the distance between the farmhouse and the car = c

Using the Pythagoras Theorem rule

c² = a² + b²

c² = 2² + b²

Step 1

Since distance is involved, time is required. Hence, we differentiate the equation above in respect to time

c² = 2² + b²

dc/dt (2c) = 4 + 2b

dc/dt =[ b/(√b² + 4)] × db/dt

We are told in the question that:

the car travels past the farmhouse on on the highway at a speed of 80 km/h.

We are asked to calculate the speed at which the distance between the car and the farmhouse kept increasing when the car is 6 km past the intersection of the highway and the road.

This calculated using the obtained differentiation above:

dc/dt = [ b/(√b² + 4)] × db/dt

Where b = 6km

db/dt = 80km/hr

[6/(√6² + 4)] × 80km/hr

6/√36 + 4 × 80km/hr

6 × 80/√40

480/√40

= 75.894663844km/hr

Approximately = 75.9km/hr

In this exercise we want to calculate the speed of the vehicle to reach the farm, in this way we will find a speed of approximately:

[tex]75.9 km/hr[/tex]

To start this exercise we have to use some data informed in the text, like this:

Distance: [tex]a=2km[/tex] Distance after the intersection and the highway: [tex]b[/tex] Distance between the farmhouse and the car: [tex]c[/tex] Pythagoras Theorem rule: [tex]c^2 = a^2 + b^2[/tex]

Since distance is involved, time is required. Hence, we differentiate the equation above in respect to time

[tex]c^2 = 2^2 + b^2\\\frac{dc}{dt} (2c) = 4 + 2b\\\frac{dc}{dt} =[ b/(\sqrt{b^2} + 4)] ( \frac{db}{dt})[/tex]

Calculate the speed at which the distance between the car and the farmhouse kept increasing when the car is 6 km past the intersection of the highway and the road. This calculated using the obtained differentiation above:

[tex]\frac{dc}{dt} = [ 6/(\sqrt{6^2} + 4)] (80)\\=6/\sqrt{36} + 4 * 80\\=6 * 80/\sqrt{40} \\=480/\sqrt{40} \\= 75.9km/hr[/tex]
