Let b>a

b-a=518, so we can say that b=518+a then:

a+b=1212, using b found above in this we get:

a+(518+a)=1212

2a+518=1212

2a=694

a=347, and since b=1212-a

b=865

So the two numbers are 865 and 347

The answers are 347 and 865. To solve this problem you set up two equations, x+y=1212 and x-y=518. You then get the second x by itself by adding y to both sides. You then have x+y=1212 and x=y+518. After this you substitute the x into the first equation and have y+518+y=1212. Then simplify to 2y=694 and y=347
Now that y=347 you put it in the original equation. Solve and get that x=865

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of a cylinder is 2pi *rh + 2pir^2, where r and h are radius and height, respectively. (If you want me to explain this, comment down below). Anyways, we can simply plug in 11 and 8 in the formula, so 2* 8*11*pi + 2* pi * 8^2=304pi. Thus, we do 304 * 3.14=954.56.

Suppose a and b are both non zero real numbers. Find real numbers c and d such that 1/a+ib= c+id

Thepotemich [5.8K]

$\begin{gathered} c=\frac{a}{a^2+b^2} \\ d=\frac{-b}{a^2+b^2} \end{gathered}$

Explanation

$\frac{1}{a+bi}=c+di$

Step 1

multiplicate by the conjugate

$\begin{gathered} \frac{1}{a+bi}\cdot\frac{a-bi}{a+bi}=\frac{a-bi}{(a+bi)(a-bi)}=\frac{a-bi}{a^2-(bi)^2} \\ \frac{1}{a+bi}\cdot\frac{a-bi}{a+bi}=\frac{a-bi}{(a+bi)(a-bi)}=\frac{a-bi}{a^2-(-b^2)}=\frac{a-bi}{a^2+b^2} \end{gathered}$

notice that

$\begin{gathered} \frac{1}{a+bi}=\frac{a-bi}{a^2+b^2}=\frac{a}{a^2+b^2}-\frac{b}{a^2+b^2}i \\ \frac{a}{a^2+b^2}-\frac{b}{a^2+b^2}i=c+di \\ so \\ \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} c=\frac{a}{a^2+b^2} \\ d=\frac{-b}{a^2+b^2} \end{gathered}$
