Answer:

Each person will get \frac{7}{30} or approximately 0.23 pounds of chicken.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a word problem involving fractions.  Using key words and phrases from the problem, we can decide which operation we need to use to solve.  Since Jamie is splitting the chicken equally between three people, she would need to divide the amount of chicken she has by 3:

\frac{7}{10}÷\frac{3}{1}

Since we can't divide fractions, we need to use the 'keep-change-flip' rule to keep the first fraction, change the operation to multiplication and flip the second fraction:

\frac{7}{10}*\frac{1}{3}=\frac{7}{30}

We can convert the fraction into a decimal by dividing the numerator by the denominator:  7÷30≈0.23 pounds per person.

Randall has an account balance of $675.54 in a savings account that earns interest at a rate of 2.5% compounded twice a year. If
Alex_Xolod [135]
To calculate amount accrued after a given period of time we use the compound interest formula: A= P(1+r/100)∧n where A i the amount, P is the principal amount, r is the rate of interest and n is the interest period.
In the first part; A= $ 675.54, r= 1.25% (compounded semi-annually) and n =22 ( 11 years ),  hence, 675.54 = P( 1.0125)∧22
   = 675.54= 1.314P
 P= $ 514.109 , therefore the principal amount was $ 514 (to nearest dollar)
Part 2
principal amount (p)= $ 541, rate (r) = 1.2 % (compounded twice a year thus rate for one half will be 2.4/2) and the interest period (n)= 34 (17 years×2)
Amount= 541 (1.012)∧34
             = 541 ×1.5
             = $ 811.5
Therefore, the account balance after $ 811.5.

(7 + 7i)(2 − 2i)
Ostrovityanka [42]

The complex number  -7i into trigonometric form is 7 (cos (90) + sin (90) i) and  3 + 3i in trigonometric form is 4.2426 (cos (45) + sin (45) i)

<h3>What is a complex number?</h3>

It is defined as the number which can be written as x+iy where x is the real number or real part of the complex number and y is the imaginary part of the complex number and i is the iota which is nothing but a square root of -1.

We have a complex number shown in the picture:

-7i(3 + 3i)

= -7i

In trigonometric form:

z = 7 (cos (90) + sin (90) i)

= 3 + 3i

z = 4.2426 (cos (45) + sin (45) i)

\rm 7\:\left(cos\:\left(90\right)\:+\:sin\:\left(90\right)\:i\right)4.2426\:\left(cos\:\left(45\right)\:+\:sin\:\left(45\right)\:i\right)

\rm =7\left(\cos \left(\dfrac{\pi }{2}\right)+\sin \left(\dfrac{\pi }{2}\right)i\right)\cdot \:4.2426\left(\cos \left(\dfrac{\pi }{4}\right)+\sin \left(\dfrac{\pi }{4}\right)i\right)

\rm 7\cdot \dfrac{21213}{5000}e^{i\dfrac{\pi }{2}}e^{i\dfrac{\pi }{4}}

\rm =\dfrac{148491\left(-1\right)^{\dfrac{3}{4}}}{5000}

=21-21i

After converting into the exponential form:

\rm =\dfrac{148491\left(-1\right)^{\dfrac{3}{4}}}{5000}

From part (b) and part (c) both results are the same.

Thus, the complex number  -7i into trigonometric form is 7 (cos (90) + sin (90) i) and  3 + 3i in trigonometric form is 4.2426 (cos (45) + sin (45) i)
