The square root of a a negative integer is imaginary.
It would still be a negative under a square root if you multiplied it by 2, therefor it will still be imaginary, or I’m assuming as your book calls it, undefined.
2•(sqrt-1) = 2sqrt-1
If you add a number to -1 itself, specifically 1 or greater it will become a positive number or 0 assuming you just add 1. In that case it would be defined.
-1 + 1 = 0
-1 + 2 = 1
If you add a number to the entire thing “sqrt-1” it will not be defined.
(sqrt-1) + 1 = 1+ (sqrt-1)
If you subtract a number it will still have a negative under a square root, meaning it would be undefined.
(sqrt-1) + 1 = 1 + (sqrt-1)
however if you subtract a negative number from -1 itself, you end up getting a positive number or zero. (Subtracting a negative number is adding because the negative signs cancel out).
-1 - -1 = 0
-1 - -2 = 1
If you squared it you would get -1, which is defined
sqrt-1 • sqrt-1 = -1
and if you cubed it, you would get a negative under a square root again, therefor it would be undefined.
sqrt-1 • sqrt-1 • sqrt-1 = -1 • sqrt-1 = -1(sqrt-1)
Sorry if this answer is confusing, I don’t have a scientific keyboard, I’ll get one soon.
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
x + y = 3 → (1)
3x - y = 1 → (2)
Adding the 2 equations term by term will eliminate the term in y
4x = 4 ( divide both sides by 4)
x = 1
Substitute x = 1 into either of the 2 equations and evaluate for y
Substituting into (1)
1 + y = 3 ( subtract 1 from both sides )
y = 2
Solution is (1, 2 ) → c
Answer:
h(-3) = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
h(-3) = -I 2-(-3) I
Two negatives makes a positive: -(-3) = +3 or 3
h(-3) = -I 2+3 I
h(-3) = -I 5 I
*There is a negative that lies outside of the absolute value lines, which makes everything positive.
Making sure the 5 is positive, remove the absolute value lines.
h(-3) = - +5
The negative sign is still there.
A negative and a positive makes a negative.
h(-3) = -5
Answer:
Niamh gets 12 and Jack gets 24.
Step-by-step explanation:
4:8 is equal to 1:2. 1 part + 2 parts is equal to 3 parts, which is equal to the whole. 36 is the whole, so 36/3 is equal to 12. 1 * 12 is equal to 12, and 2 * 12 is equal to 24.
