Aiko is finding the sum (4 + 5i) + (–3 + 7i). She rewrites the sum as (–3 + 7)i + (4 + 5)i. Which statement explains the mathema

tical property that she made an error using?
Aiko incorrectly used the commutative property by changing the order of the two complex numbers.
Aiko incorrectly used the associative property by changing the order of the two complex numbers.
Aiko incorrectly used the identity property by combining the real number and the coefficient of the imaginary part.
Aiko incorrectly used the distributive property by combining the real number and the coefficient of the imaginary part.

Consider the expression below.

(4 + 5i) + (-3 + 7i)

Aiko rewrites the equation by factoring out the i's from the expression and wrote it as,

(4 + 5)i + (-3 + 7)i                                  

But this is wrong because 'i' is an imaginary number which is with '5' and '7'. So, she cannot factor out the 'i' because it is not present in both '-3' and '4'.

She could rewrote it as (4-3)+i(5+7)

So, Aiko incorrectly used the distributive property by combining the real number and the coefficient of the imaginary part.

So, Option 4 is the correct answer.

In this item, it can be seen that from an expression of,
                                  (4 + 5i) + (-3 + 7i)
Aiko transformed the equation by factoring out the i's from the expression and wrote it as,
                                   (4 + 5)i + (-3 + 7)i
Now this is wrong because i there is not a variable but a notation that 5 and 7 are imaginary numbers. In fact, she cannot factor out the i's because it is not present in both -3 and 4. The answer therefore to this item is the last sentence, "Aiko incorrectly used the distributive property by combining ..."

Look at the picture.

ΔABD and ΔBCD are similar, therefore:

\dfrac{y}{5}=\dfrac{11}{y}\ \ \ |\cross\ multiply\\\\y^2=55\to y=\sqrt{55}

Use Pythagorean theorem:

x^2=5^2+(\sqrt{55})^2\\\\x^2=25+55\\\\x^2=80\to x=\sqrt{80}\\\\x=\sqrt{16\cdot5}\\\\x=\sqrt{16}\cdot\sqrt5\\\\\boxed{x=4\sqrt5}

Help on #3 above??? I will give brainliest!
Leona [35]

Answer:

  f(x)\rightarrow 1\ \text{as}\ x\rightarrow\pm\infty

Step-by-step explanation:

"End behavior" generally refers to the behavior as the independent variable (x) gets large in the positive or negative directions. Here, the curve for large magnitude x flattens out and approaches 1. So, we say ...

  f(x)\rightarrow 1\ \text{as}\ x\rightarrow\pm\infty

a scale model of the human heart os 196 in. The scale is 32:1, what is the approximate actual size of the heart
Yanka [14]
If it is a 32:1 then the answer is somewhere around 6.125 inches

32 : 1 = 196 : X
32X = 196
X = 196/32
X= 6.125

Nine new employees, two of whom are married to each other, are to be assigned nine desks that are lined up in a row. If the assi

Answer:

The probability is 0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The key to answering this question is considering the fact that the two married employees be treated as a single unit.

Now what this means is that we would be having 8 desks to assign.

Mathematically, the number of ways to assign 8 desks to 8 employees is equal to 8!

Now, the number of ways the couple can interchange their desks is just 2 ways

Thus, the number of ways to assign desks such that the couple has adjacent desks is 2(8!)

The number of ways to assign desks among all six employees randomly is 9!

Thus, the probability that the couple will have adjacent desks would be ;

2(8!)/9! = 2/9

This means that the probability that the couple have non adjacent desks is 1-2/9 = 7/9 = 0.77778

Which is 0.8 to the nearest tenth of a percent

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallel line will have the same slope as the reference line.  In this case, I don't see the "given line" as promised in the question.  If it does appear, and it looks like y = 5x + 3, for example, the slope is 5 and the new line will have the same slope.

<h3><u>If this slope is correct</u>, we can start the equation for the parallel line that goes through point (-3,2) by starting with:</h3><h3 /><h3>y = 5x + b</h3><h3 /><h3>We need a value of b that forces the line to go through point (-3,2).  We can do that by using the given point in the equation and solving for b:</h3><h3>y = 5x + b</h3><h3>2 = 5(-3) + b</h3><h3>b = 17</h3><h3 /><h3>The parallel line to y=5x+3 is</h3><h3>y = 5x + 17</h3><h3 /><h3>See attachment.</h3><h3 /><h3 /><h3 />
