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!!

What are the two solutions of 2x^2=-x^2-5x-1
hammer [34]

Answer:

x = 5/-6 + (√13)/-6

x = 5/-6 -(√13)/-6

Step-by-step explanation:

2x^2 = -x^2 - 5x - 1. Subtract 2x^2 from both sides.

-3x^2 - 5x - 1. Do the quadratic formula.

That gives you:

-5/6 ± (√13)/-6.

Find the equation of the parabola that has zeros of x = –1 and x = 3 and a y-intercept of (0,–9). Question 1 options: A) y = 3x2
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the zeros are x = - 1 and x = 3 then the factors are

(x + 1) and (x - 3) and the parabola is the product of the factors, that is

y = a(x + 1)(x - 3) ← where a is a multiplier

To find a substitute (0, - 9) into the equation

- 9 = a(0 + 1)(0 - 3) = a(1)(- 3) = - 3a ( divide both sides by - 3 )

3 = a, thus

y = 3(x + 1)(x - 3) ← expand the factors using FOIL

  = 3(x² - 2x - 3) ← distribute by 3

  = 3x² - 6x - 9 → A

Answer:

AC ≈ 10.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle

tan48° = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} = \frac{AC}{AB} = \frac{AC}{9.3} ( multiply both sides by 9.3 )

9.3 × tan48° = AC , then

AC ≈ 10.3 ( to 3 sf )
