Answer:

8520 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, make a proportion

142 words in 1 minute, and x words in 60 minutes (1 hour).

142/1=x/60

Cross multiply

142*60=1*x

8520=x

Another way to solve is to know that each hour has 60 minutes, and she can read 142 words in 1 minute. So, we can just multiply 60 and 142.

60*142=8520

Rewrite each expression as a polynomial in standard form.a)(x+i)(x-i)b)(x+5i)(x-5i)

Nitella [24]

Answer:

a) x² +1

b) x² +25

Step-by-step explanation:

a) (x+i)(x− i)

= x² - ( i ) x + ( i ) x - ( i)²

= x² - i² ∵ i² = -1

= x² - (-1)

= x² +1

b) (x+5 i)(x− 5i)

= x² - ( 5 i ) x + ( 5 i ) x - ( 5 i)²

= x² - 25 i² ∵ i² = -1

= x² - 25(-1)

= x² +25

we can also solve

using identity

(a + b)(a - b) = a² - b²

= (x+5 i)(x− 5i)

= x² - (5 i)²

= x² - 25 i²

= x² +25

I need to know the steps

vaieri [72.5K]

YES. She is correct.

$\dfrac{x}{16}=4\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 4}\\\\\not\!4^1\cdot\dfrac{x}{16\!\!\!\!\!\diagup_4}=4\cdot4\\\\\dfrac{x}{4}=16$

Equations are equivalent

Their solutions:

$\dfrac{x}{16}=4\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 16}\\\\x=4\cdot16\\\\\boxed{x=64}\\----------\\\\\dfrac{x}{4}=16\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 4}\\\\x=16\cdot4\\\\\boxed{x=64}$
