Chetan makes a necklace for his sister. Twelve beads take up 5 inches of string. How many beas fit on 1 foot of string

1 answer:

7 0

Find the amount of beads per inch:
12/5 = 2.4 (this doesn't make sense, but it will)
Now find the total beads on one foot, or 12 inches
2.4 x 12 = 28.8
Since 29 wont fit, 28 will be the largest whole number of beads that can fit on the string

Find each absolute value | 4+2i | | 5-i | | -3i |

galina1969 [7]

How to get answer for number 1: | 4+2i |

$\left|a+bi\right|\:=\sqrt{\left(a+bi\right)\left(a-bi\right)}=\sqrt{a^2+b^2}\\\mathrm{With\:}a=4,\:b=2\\=\sqrt{4^2+2^2}\\Refine\\=\sqrt{20}\\\sqrt{20}=2\sqrt{5}\\=2\sqrt{5}$

How to get answer for number 2: | 5-i |

$\left|a+bi\right|\:=\sqrt{\left(a+bi\right)\left(a-bi\right)}=\sqrt{a^2+b^2}\\\mathrm{With\:}a=5,\:b=-1\\=\sqrt{5^2+\left(-1\right)^2}\\=\sqrt{26}$

Number 3 how to get answer: | -3i |

$\left|a+bi\right|\:=\sqrt{\left(a+bi\right)\left(a-bi\right)}=\sqrt{a^2+b^2}\\\mathrm{With\:}a=0,\:b=-3\\=\sqrt{0^2+\left(-3\right)^2}\\Refine\\=\sqrt{9}\\\sqrt{9}\\\mathrm{Factor\:the\:number:\:}\:9=3^2\\=\sqrt{3^2}\\\mathrm{Apply\:radical\:rule}:\quad \sqrt[n]{a^n}=a\\\sqrt{3^2}=3\\= 3$
