Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of hours that that he spent washing cars.

Let y represent the number of hours that that he spent landscaping.

In a week, he can work no more than 19 total hours. This means that

x + y ≤ 19- - - - - - - - - - - -1

Jacob is working two summer jobs, making $10 per hour washing cars and making $8 per hour landscaping. He must earn at least $170. This means that

10x + 8y ≥ 170 - - - - - - - - - -2

If Jacob worked 4 hours landscaping, it means that

x + 4 ≤ 19

x ≤ 19 - 4

x ≤ 15

Also,

10x + 8 × 4 ≥ 170

10x + 32 ≥ 170

10x ≥ 170 - 32

10x ≥ 138

10x ≥ 138/10

x ≥ 13.8

The minimum number of hours is 14

Find the product and fill in the blanks to write in standard complex number form
k0ka [10]
X^2 +2x +10 = 0

D = 4 -40 = - 36 

x_1,2 = (-2 +/- sqrt(-36))/2 = (-2 +/- 6i)/2 = 2(-1 +/- 3i)/2 = -1 +/- 3i 

x_1,2 = -1 +/- 3i   or more understandably 

x_1 = -1 -3i and x_2 = -1 +3i

hope this will help you
