Answer:

x = -1
y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The common difference (d) can be found using the first and 4th terms:

a1 = 3

a4 = a1 +d(4 -1)

-9 = 3 +3d . . . . . simplify

-3 = 1 + d . . . . . . divide by 3

-4 = d . . . . . . . . . subtract 1

Then ...

x = a1 + d = 3 -4 = -1

y = x + d = -1 -4 = -5

The values of x and y are -1 and -5, respectively.

Find the missing value when given the modulus. <br><br> |48+bi|=50

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

missing value b is 14

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the modulus of a complex number which is

$r=\sqrt{a^2+b^2}$

Here on comparing the given complex number with general a+bi we get:

a=48 and b=b

On substituting the values in the formula for modulus we get:

$\sqrt{48^2+b^2}=50$

$\Rightarrow 2304+b^2=50^2$

$\Rightarrow b^2=2500-2304$

$\Rightarrow b^2=196$

$\Rightarrow b=\sqrt{196}$

$\Rightarrow b=14$

Therefore, missing value b is 14
