Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

4 goes into 26 6 times, and then there's 2 remainder, so it's the same thing as i², which is -1

hope this is helpful :)

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

so "i" is the square root of -1 (√-1). We know that i² = (√-1)², and that when we square a square root we end back up with whatever is inside of the square root.

This is why i² = -1

We can find a pattern from writing out a few exponents:

i¹ = i

i² = -1

i³ = -i  [(-1)(i)]

i⁴ = 1  [-1 · -1]

------

i⁵ = i  [(1)(i)]

i⁶ = -1 [(i)(i)]

i⁷ = -i [(-1)(i)]

i⁸ = 1 [(-i)(i)= -(i²)= -(-1) = 1]

------

i⁹ = i [1 · i]

we can see that the pattern of i repeats every 4 numbers, so by dividing 26 by 4 (and finding the remainder), we can figure out which step of the pattern we are on

26 / 4 = 6 [remainder of 2]

we know that there is a remainder of 2, meaning that we are on the "second step" in the pattern: -1

you can do the same thing for any number

hope this helps!!

Cam was bom weighing 8.6 pounds. Every day, he gained the same amount of weight. After 30 days, he weighed 14.9
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

So I'm not entirely sure about this one, but I believe he gained 0.21 pounds each day for 30 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Cam was born weighing 8.6 pounds and after 30 days weighed 14.9, subtract 14.9-8.6 to find how much he gained.

14.9 - 8.6 = 6.3

Now that we know how much he gained, we have to find out how much he gained per day for 30 days. To do this, divide 6.3 by 30

6.3 / 30 = 0.21

To make sure this answer is correct, multiply 0.21 by 30 and add that to 8.6. It should equal 14.9.

I hope this helps!
