Answer:

$2100

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3 of 4500 is 1500

to find 1/3 of a number is to multiply by 1/3

1/3 * 4500 = 1500

$1500 is for savings

subtract 1500 from 4500

4500 - 1500 = 3000

the remaining money is $3000

to find 50% of something, divide by 2

3000/2 = 1500

$1500 is spent on food.

20% of 3000 is 600

to find 20% of something, multiply the decimal value (0.2)

0.2 * 3000 = 600

$600 are spent on rent.

$450 leftover

1500 + 600 = 2100

Food and rent cost $2100

hope this helps:)

Which expression represents the number 2i4−5i3+3i2+−81‾‾‾‾√ rewritten in a+bi form?

vichka [17]

Answer:

The expression $-1+14i$ represents the number $2i^4-5i^3+3i^2+\sqrt{-81}$ rewritten in a+bi form.

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of $i$ is $i=\sqrt{-1}[tex] or [tex]i^{2}=-1[\tex].Now [tex]i^{4}$ in term of $i^{2}[\tex] can be written as, [tex]i^{4}=i^{2}\times i^{2}$

Substituting the value,

$i^{4}=\left(-1\right)\times \left(-1\right)$

Product of two negative numbers is always positive.

$\therefore i^{4}=1$

Now $i^{3}$ in term of $i^{2}[\tex] can be written as, [tex]i^{3}=i^{2}\times i$

Substituting the value,

$i^{3}=\left(-1\right)\times i$

Product of one negative and one positive numbers is always negative.

$\therefore i^{3}=-i$

Now $\sqrt{-81}$ can be written as follows,

$\sqrt{-81}=\sqrt{\left(81\right)\times\left(-1\right)}$

Applying radical multiplication rule,

$\sqrt{ab}={\sqrt{a}}\sqrt{b}$

$\sqrt{\left(81\right)\times\left(-1\right)}={\sqrt{81}}\sqrt{-1}$

Now, $\sqrt{\left(81\right)=9$ and $\sqrt{-1}}=i$

$\therefore \sqrt{\left(81\right)\times\left(-1\right)}=9i$

Now substituting the above values in given expression,

$2i^4-5i^3+3i^2+\sqrt{-81}=2\left(1\right)-5\left(-i\right)+3\left(-1\right)+9i$

Simplifying,

$2+5i-3+9i$

Collecting similar terms,

$2-3+5i+9i$

Combining similar terms,

$-1+14i$

The above expression is in the form of a+bi which is the required expression.

Hence, option number 4 is correct.

Solve for n.<br> 3/4 x n = 1

cestrela7 [59]

3/4 times n=1

remember that when you multiply 3/4 by 4/3 you get 12/12=1 so it simplifies
remember that you can do anything to an equation as long as you do it to both sides

3/4 ties n=1
multiply both sides by 4/3 to clar fraction
12/12 times n=4/3 times 1
1 times n=4/3
n=4/3

answer is n=4/3 or 1 and 1/3

ElenaW [278]

Her check register will have a surplus of 64 dollars compared to her actual balance.
example
100 +32 = 132 (incorrect)
100 -32 = 68 (correct)
132 -68 = 64 surplus
