Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the complex notations a = 5i + j, b = i − 2j, we are to evaluate the following:

1) a + b

= 5i+j + (i-2j)

= 5i+j+i-2j

collect like terms

= 5i+i+j-2j

= 6i-j

<em>Hence a+b = 6i-j</em>

2) 2a+3b

= 2(5i+j) + 3(i-2j)

open the parenthesis

= 10i+2j+3i-6j

collect like terms

= 10i+3i+2j-6j

= 13i-4j

<em>Hence 2a+3b = 13i-4j</em>

3) |a| = √x²+y²

Given a = 5i+j; x = 5, y = 1

|a| = √5²+1²

|a| = √25+1

<em>|a| = √26</em>

4) |a-b|

First we need to calculate a-b

=  a - b

= 5i+j - (i-2j)

open the parenthesis

= 5i+j-i+2j

collect like terms

= 5i-i+j+2j

= 4i-3j

|a-b| = √4²+(-3)²

|a-b| = √16+9

|a-b| = √25

|a-b| = 5

5(x+4)= -2(-4-x)+3 <br> what is the answer?
lianna [129]

Answer:

x = -3

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
  • Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>

5(x + 4) = -2(-4 - x) + 3

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Distribute:                                   5x + 20 = 8 + 2x + 3
  2. Combine like terms:                   5x + 20 = 2x + 11
  3. Subtract 2x on both sides:        3x + 20 = 11
  4. Subtract 20 on both sides:        3x = -9
  5. Divide 3 on both sides:              x = -3

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute:                    5(-3 + 4) = -2(-4 - -3) + 3
  2. Simplify:                        5(-3 + 4) = -2(-4 + 3) + 3
  3. Add:                              5(1) = -2(-1) + 3
  4. Multiply:                        5 = 2 + 3
  5. Add:                              5 = 5

Here we see that 5 does indeed equal 5. ∴ x = -3 is a solution of the equation.

And we have our final answer!

The function f(x) = x2 – 6x + 9 is shifted 5 units to the left to create g(x). what is g(x)?
allsm [11]
The correct answer is C.  The form for shifts is (x-h)^2 +k where h=the x variable ( horizontal shift left or right) and k = the y  variable  (vertical shift up or down) The confusing part for many students is remember that if you are moving left it's subtraction So in the form x-h it is actually x - (-h) so it gets turned into a positive/ addition sign.

??????????????????????
adell [148]
Hello!

You have to find the area of the first rectangle

13 * 25 = 325

Next find the area of the second rectangle

The base is quadripled

13 * 4 = 52

52 * 25 = 1300

Divide the area of rectangle 2 by the area of rectangle 1

1300/ 325 = 4

The answer is D. 4 times bigger

Hope this helps!
