Using proportions, it is found that the number of books that was left over was of 505.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

The number of books received by Marie is given by:

M = 772 - 345 = 427.

Melanie received one-sixth of Marie, hence:

Me = 427/6 = 71.

The total amount is 25 times Melanie's amount, hence:

T = 25 x 71 = 1775.

The amount left over is:

L = 1775 - (772 + 427 + 71) = 505

(-19+7i)-(29+32i)=<br><br> in the form (a+bi)
olga_2 [115]
ANSWER

-48-25i

EXPLANATION

We want to simplify the expression,

(-19+7i) - (29+32i)

Let us expand the bracket to obtain,

-19+7i-29-32i

We now group the complex number parts and real number parts.

-19 -29+7i-32i


We simplify further to obtain,

- 48-25i


This is in the form,

a+bi

where

a=-48

and

b=-25
