Answer:
given you are asked to simplify
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to multiply the numerator and denominator by the denominator's conjugate.
The conjugate of a+bi is a-bi.
When you multiply conjugates, you just have to multiply first and last.
(a+bi)(a-bi)
a^2-abi+abi-b^2i^2
a^2+0 -b^2(-1)
a^2+-b^2(-1)
a^2+b^2
See no need to use the whole foil method; the middle terms cancel.
So we are multiplying top and bottom of your fraction by (-3+4i):
So you will have to use the complete foil method for the numerator. Let's do that:
(-3+5i)(-3+4i)
First: (-3)(-3)=9
Outer:: (-3)(4i)=-12i
Inner: (5i)(-3)=-15i
Last: (5i)(4i)=20i^2=20(-1)=-20
--------------------------------------------Combine like terms:
9-20-12i-15i
Simplify:
-11-27i
Now the bottom (-3-4i)(-3+4i):
F(OI)L (we are skipping OI)
First:-3(-3)=9
Last: -4i(4i)=-16i^2=-16(-1)=16
---------------------------------------------Combine like terms:
9+16=25
So our answer is
If the population was 40,000 at the beginning of 2009, at the end of 2009 it has increased by 10% and became 44,000.
By the same way, at the end of 2010, it became
At the end of 2011, the population was
By the same way, at the end of 2010, it became
At the end of 2011, the population was
