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}

PQRS is a parallelogram. PR and QS are diagonals. Match each element to its value. Tiles value of length of value of length of
ss7ja [257]

Since it is a parallelogram cente at point T, then the measure of PT is equal to the measure of TR. And the measure of QT is equal to the measure of TS.

 

PT = TR

a + 4 = 2a

4 = 2a -a

a = 4

 

PT = TR = 8 units

 

QT = TS

b = 2b -3

3 = 2b – b

b = 3

 

<span>QT = TS = 3 units</span>

Let

a------>is the tree’s age in years

we have that

-------> Javier's equation

we know that

The equation that represent the situation is equal to

Solve for a
