What is the product of −2 1/4 and −4 1/2 ?

1 answer:

4 0

To multiply fracti0ons, we need to convert them to improper fractions:

-2 1/4 = -9/4
-4 1/2 = -9/2

Now, lets multiply:

-9/4 * -9/2 = 81/8

Hope this helps!

Take note that the answer is positive because when multiplying, two negatives make a positive.

What is the completely factored form of of this polynomial 81x^4 - 16y^4

Tasya [4]

Step-by-step explanation:

81x⁴ - 16y⁴

(9x²)² - (4y²)²

(9x² + 4y²)(9x² - 4y²)

(9x² + 4y²)(3x + 2y)(3x - 2y)

What is the tan invers of 3i/-1-i

postnew [5]

z = 3i / (-1 - i )

z = 3i / (-1 - i ) × (-1 + i ) / (-1 + i )

z = (3i × (-1 + i )) / ((-1)² - i ²)

z = (-3i + 3i ²) / ((-1)² - i ²)

z = (-3 - 3i ) / (1 - (-1))

z = (-3 - 3i ) / 2

Note that this number lies in the third quadrant of the complex plane, where both Re(z) and Im(z) are negative. But arctan only returns angles between -π/2 and π/2. So we have

arg(z) = arctan((-3/2)/(-3/2)) - π

arg(z) = arctan(1) - π

arg(z) = π/4 - π

arg(z) = -3π/4

where I'm taking arg(z) to have a range of -π < arg(z) ≤ π.
