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 ..."

(4). Simplifying polynomials, help pls:) brainliest involved
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

To simplify a polynomial, we have to do two things: 1) combine like terms, and 2) rearrange the terms so that they're written in descending order of exponent.

First, we combine like terms, which requires us to identify the terms that can be added or subtracted from each other. Like terms always have the same variable (with the same exponent) attached to them. For example, you can add 1 "x-squared" to 2 "x-squareds" and get 3 "x-squareds", but 1 "x-squared" plus an "x" can't be combined because they're not like terms.

Let's identify some like terms below.

f(x)=−4x+3x2−7+9x−12x2−5x4

Here you can see that -4x and 9x are like terms. When we combine (add) -4x and 9x, we get 5x. So let's write 5x instead:

f(x)=5x+3x2−7−12x2−5x4

Let's do the same thing with the x-squared terms:

f(x)=5x+3x2−7−12x2−5x4

f(x)=5x−9x2−7−5x4

Now there are no like terms left. Our last step is to organize the terms so that x is written in descending power:

f(x)=−5x4−9x2+5x−7

given a rectangle of length a and width b if A and B are both rational numbers would the perimeter be irrational or rational? Gi
Kitty [74]
The perimeter would be rational due to both the width and length being rational numbers. A rational number is a number that can be written as a fraction such as 8 it can be written as 8/1, but a irrational would be a decimal number which in this case there would be none because both length and width is rational number. For example, Lets say the width is 8 and the length is 10. once both are written into fraction form such as 8/1 and 10/1 we add them to get a perimeter of 18.
