X -- 5=.
X is the variable.
-- is the operation.
5 is the puppy's age

The other dog's age is "x". Rex's puppy is 5 years less than "x". SO...
x-5.

Understand?

$-\frac{8}{5}$ = -1.6

$-9\frac{3}{8}$ = -11.625

$-\frac{9}{11}$ = -0.81818...

$6\frac{7}{27}$ = 2.4814

Convert the complex number z = 4 - 10i from rectangular form to polar form.

mrs_skeptik [129]

ANSWER

$r = 2 \sqrt{29} ( \cos(292 \degree) + \sin(292 \degree))$

EXPLANATION

The polar form of a complex number ,

$z = x + yi$

is given by:

$z = r( \cos( \theta) + i \sin( \theta) )$

where

$r = \sqrt{ {x}^{2} + {y}^{2} }$

The given complex number is:

$z = 4 - 10i$

$r = \sqrt{ {4}^{2} + {( - 10)}^{2} }$

$r = \sqrt{16 + 100}$

$r = \sqrt{116} = 2 \sqrt{29}$

And

$\theta= \tan^{ - 1}(\frac{ y}{x} )$

$\theta= \tan^{ - 1}(\frac{ - 10}{4} )$

$\theta= 292 \degree$

Hence the polar form is :

$r = 2 \sqrt{29} ( \cos(292 \degree) + \sin(292 \degree))$

What are the steps of factoring (5m-2)^2-(3m-4)^2 ?

Svetlanka [38]

We use the formula a^2 - b^2 = ( a - b )( a + b );
We have a = 5m - 2 and b = 3m - 4;
<span>(5m-2)^2-(3m-4)^2 = (5m - 2 -3m + 4) x (5m-2 + 3m - 4) = (2m + 2)(8m - 6) = 2(m +1) x 2(4m - 3) = 4(m+1)(4m-3);
