Answer:

Weight on the moon=x=15.87 kilograms

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be expressed as;

Weight on earth=Constant×Weight on moon

where;

Weight on moon=14.2 kilograms

Constant=k

Weight on Earth=85 kilograms

Replacing in the expression above;

85=14.2×k

k=(85/14.2)=5.986

If the person weighs 95 kilograms on Earth;

Weight on the earth=Constant×Weight on moon

where;

Weight on the moon=x

Constant=5.986

Weight on the earth=95 kilograms

Replacing;

95=5.986×x

x=95/5.986=15.87

Weight on the moon=x=15.87 kilograms

What is the value of i4?
natima [27]

Answer:

  1

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to know the value of i^4.

<h3>Powers of i</h3>

The fourth power of i, √(-1), can be found the same way the value of any fourth power can be found: carry out the multiplication.

  i^4 = i·i·i·i = -1·i·i = -i·i = -(-1) = 1

The fourth power of i is 1.

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

As you can see from the evaluation process, ...

  i¹ = i

  i² = -1 . . . . . definition of i

  i³ = -i

  i⁴ = 1

The sequence repeats for higher powers.
