Given:

\begin{gathered} a=2i+3 \\ b=i-1 \\ c=-3i+2 \end{gathered}

You know that:

a-b-c=(2i+3)-(i-1)-(-3i+2)

In order to solve the operation, you can follow these steps:

1. Distribute the negative signs. Remember the Sign Rules for Multiplication:

\begin{gathered} +\cdot+=+ \\ -\cdot-=+ \\ +\cdot-=- \\ -\cdot+=- \end{gathered}

Then:

=2i+3-i+1+3i-2

2. Combine the like terms (add the Real Parts and add the Imaginary Parts):

=4i+2

Hence, the answer is: Option B.

What is the answer and how do I solve?
8_murik_8 [283]
Because it is a 90° angle and the legs are congruent, the legs intersect with the hypotenuse at the same angle, so the other, unnamed angle at the bottom left is equal to x.

Now we can state that:

2x + 90 = 180
2x = 90
x = 45

Election day is less than a month away, and political analysts are focused on the races for two statewide political offices. Acc
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

0.1961

Step-by-step explanation:

Since these two probabilities are independent of each other, we can simply multiply them.

The probability that a voter will support the Democratic candidate for governor is 0.53.

The probability that a voter will support the Democratic candidate for attorney general is 0.37.

This makes the probability that a voter supports both Democratic candidates 0.53(0.37) = 0.1961.

Question 6 of 10
AysviL [449]
B and C; as the y intercept increases/decreases, the graph of the line shifts up/down.

The y intercept is where the function crosses the y-axis. If the y intercept moves either up or down, the whole function will be translated up/down vertically along the y-axis.

What is the answer and why is it that answer
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

73+107 = 180. When the smaller of the two angles is 73 all of the smaller angles are also going to be 73 and since the angles MTS and STN are bigger angles they both have to be 107
