Answer:

  6 lengths

Step-by-step explanation:

You essentially want the smallest integer solution to ...

  60x ≥ 350

  x ≥ 350/60

  x ≥ 5 5/6

The smallest integer solution to this is x = 6.

The minimum number of lengths of hose needed is 6.

_____

Informally, you know that dividing the required total length by the length of one hose will tell you the number of required hoses. You also know the ratio 350/60 is equivalent to 35/6 and that this will be between 5 and 6. (5·6 = 30; 6·6 = 36) The next higher integer value will be 6.

Answer:

(x + (3+5i))^2 = x^2 + 6x + (10x+30)i - 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Complex numbers identity:

The complex numbers identity is:

i^2 = -1

Square of the sum:

(x + y)^2 = x^2 + 2xy + y^2

In this question:

(x + (3+5i))^2

x^2 + 2x(3+5i) + (3+5i)^2

x^2 + 6x + 10xi + 9 + 30i + 25i^2

x^2 + 6x + 9 + (10x+30)i - 25

x^2 + 6x + (10x+30)i - 16

So

(x + (3+5i))^2 = x^2 + 6x + (10x+30)i - 16
