Answer:

The percent of increase in height of the stalks is 20%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The general formula for a percent increase is as follows:  (Original Amount - New Amount/Original Amount) x 100.  The original height of the stalks was 60 inches tall.  The new height of the stalks is 72 inches.  In the numerator of our fraction, we take 72-60 to get 12.  Our denominator is the original amount, or 60.  This gives us an overall fraction of 12/60, which when we divide gives us 0.2.  Once we multiply our decimal by 100, we get an overall percent increase of 20%.

Remember you can do anything to an equation as long as you do it to both sides

and when multiply by negative, flip sign

8+h>2+3h
minus h both sides
8+h-h>2+3h-h
8+0>2+2h
8>2+2h
minus 2 both sides
8-2>2-2+2h
6>0+2h
6>2h
divide by 2 both sides
6/2>2h/2
3>1h
3>h

(7 + 7i)(2 − 2i)
Ostrovityanka [42]

The complex number  -7i into trigonometric form is 7 (cos (90) + sin (90) i) and  3 + 3i in trigonometric form is 4.2426 (cos (45) + sin (45) i)

<h3>What is a complex number?</h3>

It is defined as the number which can be written as x+iy where x is the real number or real part of the complex number and y is the imaginary part of the complex number and i is the iota which is nothing but a square root of -1.

We have a complex number shown in the picture:

-7i(3 + 3i)

= -7i

In trigonometric form:

z = 7 (cos (90) + sin (90) i)

= 3 + 3i

z = 4.2426 (cos (45) + sin (45) i)

\rm 7\:\left(cos\:\left(90\right)\:+\:sin\:\left(90\right)\:i\right)4.2426\:\left(cos\:\left(45\right)\:+\:sin\:\left(45\right)\:i\right)

\rm =7\left(\cos \left(\dfrac{\pi }{2}\right)+\sin \left(\dfrac{\pi }{2}\right)i\right)\cdot \:4.2426\left(\cos \left(\dfrac{\pi }{4}\right)+\sin \left(\dfrac{\pi }{4}\right)i\right)

\rm 7\cdot \dfrac{21213}{5000}e^{i\dfrac{\pi }{2}}e^{i\dfrac{\pi }{4}}

\rm =\dfrac{148491\left(-1\right)^{\dfrac{3}{4}}}{5000}

=21-21i

After converting into the exponential form:

\rm =\dfrac{148491\left(-1\right)^{\dfrac{3}{4}}}{5000}

From part (b) and part (c) both results are the same.

Thus, the complex number  -7i into trigonometric form is 7 (cos (90) + sin (90) i) and  3 + 3i in trigonometric form is 4.2426 (cos (45) + sin (45) i)

Consider the equation below.
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

Equation in square form:

y=3(x+5)^2-4

Extreme value:

(h,k)=(-5,-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

y=3x^2+30x+71

we can complete square

y=3(x^2+10x)+71

we can use formula

a^2+2ab+b^2=(a+b)^2

y=3(x^2+2\times x\times 5)+71

now, we can add and subtract 5^2

y=3(x^2+2\times x\times 5+5^2-5^2)+71

y=3(x^2+2\times x\times 5+5^2)-3\times 5^2+71

y=3(x+5)^2-75+71

So, we get equation as

y=3(x+5)^2-4

Extreme values:

we know that this parabola

and vertex of parabola always at extreme values

so, we can compare it with

y=a(x-h)^2+k

where

vertex=(h,k)

now, we can compare and find h and k

y=3(x+5)^2-4

we get

h=-5

k=-4

so, extreme value of this equation is

(h,k)=(-5,-4)
