Option 2: 18-5i is the right answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$18-\sqrt{-25}$

When there is a negative number in radical, a new complex number iota denoted by i is introduced which is equal to $\sqrt{-1}$

So we will solve the given expression

$18-\sqrt{-25}\\= 18- (\sqrt{25*-1})\\= 18 - (\sqrt{25} * \sqrt{-1})\\= 18 - (5*i) = >\sqrt{-1} = i\\= 18 - 5i$

Hence,

Option 2: 18-5i is the right answer

For the month of January in a certain city, 42% of the days are cloudy. Also in the month of January in the same city, 41% o

zalisa [80]

Answer: 0.9762

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the event that days are cloudy and B be the event that days are rainy for January month .

Given : The probability that the days are cloudy = $P(A)=0.42$

The probability that the days are cloudy and rainy = $P(A\cap B)=0.41$

Now, the conditional probability that a randomly selected day in January will be rainy if it is cloudy is given by :-

$P(B|A)=\dfrac{P(B\cap A)}{P(A)}\\\\\Rightarrow\ P(B|A)=\dfrac{0.41}{0.42}=0.97619047619\approx0.9762$

Hence, the probability that a randomly selected day in January will be rainy if it is cloudy = 0.9762

What is the area of the figure?<br> Enter your answer in the box.

nordsb [41]

Answer:

The area of the figure = 112 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure consist of:

1) A square of side length of 10 in.

2) A right triangle with a base of (10 - 6 = 4 in) and a height of (16 - 10 = 6 in)

So,

The area of the square = (side length)² = 10² = 100 in²

The area of the triangle = 0.5 * height * base = 0.5 * 6 * 4 = 12 in²

So,

The total area = 100 + 12 = 112 in²

<u>The area of the figure = 112 in²</u>
