Answer: 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

You first divide 1 by 2. This is near impossible. So the first figure is 0. Then adding 0 to 1 makes it 10. Then you divide 10 by 2. It gives 5. Thus, the final answer is 0.5.

Answer:

0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The decimal 0.25 represents the fraction 25/100. Decimal fractions always have a denominator based on a power of 10. We know that 5/10 is equivalent to 1/2 since 1/2 times 5/5 is 5/10. Therefore, the decimal 0.5 is equivalent to 1/2 or 2/4, etc.

Find the complex fourth roots of 81(cos(3pi/8) + i sin(3pi/8))

BartSMP [9]

By using De Moivre's theorem:

If we have the complex number ⇒ z = a ( cos θ + i sin θ)
∴ $\sqrt[n]{z} = \sqrt[n]{a} \ (cos \ \frac{\theta + 360K}{n} + i \ sin \ \frac{\theta +360k}{n} )$
k= 0, 1 , 2, ..... , (n-1)

For The given complex number ⇒ z = 81(cos(3π/8) + i sin(3π/8))


Part (A) find the modulus for all of the fourth roots

∴ The modulus of the given complex number = l z l = 81

∴ The modulus of the fourth root = $\sqrt[4]{z} = \sqrt[4]{81} = 3$

Part (b) find the angle for each of the four roots

The angle of the given complex number = $\frac{3 \pi}{8}$
There is four roots and the angle between each root = $\frac{2 \pi}{4} = \frac{\pi}{2}$
The angle of the first root = $\frac{ \frac{3 \pi}{8} }{4} = \frac{3 \pi}{32}$
The angle of the second root = $\frac{3\pi}{32} + \frac{\pi}{2} = \frac{19\pi}{32}$
The angle of the third root = $\frac{19\pi}{32} + \frac{\pi}{2} = \frac{35\pi}{32}$
The angle of the fourth root = $\frac{35\pi}{32} + \frac{\pi}{2} = \frac{51\pi}{32}$

Part (C): find all of the fourth roots of this

The first root = $z_{1} = 3 ( cos \ \frac{3\pi}{32} + i \ sin \ \frac{3\pi}{32})$
The second root = $z_{2} = 3 ( cos \ \frac{19\pi}{32} + i \ sin \ \frac{19\pi}{32})$

The third root = $z_{3} = 3 ( cos \ \frac{35\pi}{32} + i \ sin \ \frac{35\pi}{32})$
The fourth root = $z_{4} = 3 ( cos \ \frac{51\pi}{32} + i \ sin \ \frac{51\pi}{32})$

If you triple the amount of ground ginger to make more pies, how much nutmeg should you use to keep the recipe proportional

klemol [59]

If you triple the ginger, to be able to keep proportion, you would need triple the nutmeg as well.
