 Imaginary numbers are numbers that can be written as a real number times i.

So what is a real number, and what is i?

Well, the real numbers are all the positive numbers, negative numbers, and zero. These are numbers like

<span>  5 
 -2.9
 -4/3 
  0
  1.11211211111221312211131122211113213211... 
   (bonus points if you can tell us 
   what the next few digits are and why!)</span>

So the real numbers are the numbers that you probably already know: they're the ones on the number line.

What is i? It's the square root of -1 (see <span>footnote </span>below). And it's NOT a real number.  i was invented because people wanted to be able to take square roots of negative numbers, and you can't do that if you limit yourself to real numbers.

So we can make an imaginary number by taking a real number like 5 and multiplying it by i. That gives us 5i. Some other imaginary numbers are

<span> 37.3i 
  1.11211211111221312211131122211113213211i 
 Pi*i.</span>

Note that the square of any imaginary number (except 0) is a negative number.

Complex numbers are numbers like 7 + .4i; they're a real number plus an imaginary number.

Footnote:<span> actually, there are TWO numbers that are the square root of -1, and those numbers are i and -i , just as there are two numbers that are the square root of 4, 2 and -2.</span>

How many liters each of a 25% acid solution and a 50% acid solution must be used to produce 80 liters of a 40% acid solution?
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

  • 32 and 48 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 25% solution is x liters, then 50% solution is (80 - x) liters.

<u>Acid content is going to be same:</u>

  • 0.25x + 0.5(80 - x) = 80*0.4
  • 0.25x - 0.5x + 40 = 32
  • 0.25x = 8
  • x = 8/0.25
  • x = 32 liters

So 32 liters of 25% solution and 80 - 32 = 48 liters of 50% solution

Prove that the following four points will form a rectangle when connected in order
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the diagonals of the rectangle are congruent,

AC = BD

By using formula to calculate the distance between two points,

Distance between two points = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

Distance between A(0, -3) and C(2, 8),

AC = \sqrt{(8+3)^2+(2-0)^2}

     = \sqrt{125}

     = 5\sqrt{5}

Similarly, distance between two points B(-4, 0) and D(6, 5),

BD = \sqrt{(5-0)^2+(6+4)^2}

     = \sqrt{125}

     = 5\sqrt{5}

Therefore, both the diagonals are congruent.

Hence, given quadrilateral ABCD is a rectangle.
