How to simplify rational expressions

Mathematics
1 answer:
Cerrena [4.2K]3 years ago
7 0
So, what we will do is, multiply both top and bottom, by the conjugate of the denominator, so, the denominator is 7 + 10i, so its conjugate is 7 - 10i then, let's do so.

\bf \textit{difference of squares}
\\ \quad \\
(a-b)(a+b) = a^2-b^2\qquad \qquad 
a^2-b^2 = (a-b)(a+b)
\\\\\\
\textit{also recall that }i^2=-1\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\

\bf \cfrac{-3-7i}{7+10i}\cdot \cfrac{7-10i}{7-10i}\implies \cfrac{(-3-7i)(7-10i)}{(7+10i)(7-10i)}\implies \cfrac{(-3-7i)(7-10i)}{7^2-(10i)^2}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{-21+30i-49i+70i^2}{7^2-(10^2i^2)}\implies \cfrac{-21+30i-49i+70\left( \boxed{-1} \right)}{7^2-\left[10^2\left( \boxed{-1} \right)\right]}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{-21+30i-49i-70}{49-(-100)}\implies \cfrac{-91-19i}{149}\implies -\cfrac{91}{149}-\cfrac{19i}{149}

I need help with number 4!
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

x = -8, y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 2y = 4 ------(1)

x + y = - 2

y = - x - 2 ----------(2)

Substitute y in (1)

x + 2(- x - 2) = 4

x - 2x - 4 = 4

- x = 4 + 4

x = -8

Substitute x in (2)

y = - (- 8) - 2 = 8 - 2 = 6

What is the least common multiple of 15 and 8?
Arturiano [62]
O get the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 15 and 8 we need to factor each value first and then we choose all the factors which appear in any column and multiply them: 

<span><span>15:      35</span><span>8:   222  </span><span>LCM:   22235</span></span>

<span>The Least Common Multiple (LCM) is:   2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 = 120</span>

Leviafan [203]

180 degree rotation negates both coordinates, and takes a point from quadrant 2 to quadrant 4.

Answer: 4

We can also rotate 180 degrees clockwise, or 540 degrees counterclockwise and end up in the same place.

Combining transformations, we can reflect in the x axis and then in the y axis, also negating both coordinates so equivalent to 180 degree rotation.

Mr. Wilson opened a bakery and a juice bar in his neighborhood. The functions below represent the profit, in dollars, earned fro
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

The answer is given below

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not complete, because the function for the profit is not given but I can show you how to calculate this.

Since Mr. Wilson has a bakery and a juice bar, his total profit earned in t months would be the sum of profit from the bakery with the profit from the juice bar within t months.

Let us assume that the profit from the bakery in t months is given by:

B(t) = 2t³

while the profit from the juice bar in t months is given by:

J(t) = 2.3^t-2

Therefore the total profit is given by:

P(t) = B(t) - J(t) = 2t^3+2.3^t-2
