Mathematics

Alja [10]3 years ago

Answer:

It is an imaginary number.

Step-by-step explanation:

The square root of negative one is "i," the imaginary number. This concept is immensely useful in mathematics, as it allows for there to be square roots of negative numbers, which is otherwise not possible using only real numbers.

Any number that includes a negative square root is called an imaginary number. For example, the square root of -9 equals 3i, an imaginary number. When an imaginary number and a real number are combined, for example 2 + 3i, this is called a complex number. Complex numbers have many real world applications, including manipulating sound waves and calculating electrical currents.

Which set or ordered pairs represents y as a unction Or X!
Zepler [3.9K]

A relation is said to be a function when every element in the domain has one and only one distinct image in the co- domain.

In the first three options , one single element in domain has more than one image.

(-2,3), (-2, 2), (-2, 1), (-2, 0)

here -2 as an element in the domain has 3,2,1,0 has image-----> so not a function

(10, 15), (5, 1), (10, 6), (6, 10)

Here 10 , an element in the domain has 15,6 as image-----> so not a function

(-11, 2), (3,8), (3, 2), (2, 2)

Here 3, as an element in the domain has 8 and 2 as image-----> so not a function

So, OPTION D

(1,6), (2, 5), (10, 5), (-17, 8)

Can anyone help with this question
4vir4ik [10]

Answer: A) x=6

Step-by-step explanation: my trick that i do with these questions are to just fill in the x's with the different choices that they give you.

so... first try out 6. fill in every x with a 6. so now, x isn't x anymore, it's 6.

(8-6)=2

9 times 2= 18

3 times 6= 18

this means that x would equal 6

if that first one doesn't work, try out the other ones. but this one works, so we know we have the right answer. i hope this helps with this problem, and i hope it helps with other problems like this too.

:)
