Look at Karen's attempt to solve the equation for y: y + 8 = 15, y = 15 + 8, y = 23.Describe the mistake that Karen made.

1 answer:

6 0

The mistake that Karen made was that in order to get the 8 to switch sides, it should have been subtracted rather than added. This is because it is positive on the left side and therefore must be negative when we switch it to the right side. A proper version of this problem would be below.

y + 8 = 15

y = 15 - 8

y = 7

What is the value of i^97 - i

Vesna [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

i^1 = i

i^2 = - 1

i^3 = i^2 * i = - 1

i^4 = i^2 * i^2 = -1 * -1 = 1

Now the circle just repeats itself. So what you do is find out the remainder of i^97 which you divide by 4. What you get is 24 with a remainder of 1.

So i^97 = i

i - i = 0

The answer is 0

J - 5 = q<br><br> What is J and Q?

Doss [256]

Answer:

There might be more to this problem that not included?

Based on the question written, J and Q would be anything that is mathematically supported.

I could a virtually endless combination, that's why I think we may be missing part of the question.

Here are some solutions:

J=11, Q = 6 11-5=6

J=12, Q= 7 12-5=7

J= 7, Q = 2 7-5=2

J = 162, Q = 157 162-5=157
