Complex numbers are often used when dealing with alternating current (AC) circuits. In the equation $V = IZ$, $V$ is voltage, $I

$ is current, and $Z$ is a value known as impedance. If $V = 1-i$ and $Z=1+3i$, find $I$. Express your answer as a complex number in the form $a+bi$, where $a$ and $b$ are real numbers.

Answer:

The current (I) expressed in the form a+bi is I=-0.2-0.4i, where a=-0.2 and b=-0.4.

Explanation:

- The first step is to write the expression of the current (I) in terms of voltage (V) and impedance (Z). As V=I\cdot Z, you must pass Z to divide to the other side. The expression would be:

I=\frac{V}{Z}

- The second step is to replace the values of V and Z:

I=\frac{V}{Z}=\frac{1-i}{1+3i}

The next step is very important: As long as you have a division of complex numbers and you want to convert it to the form a+bi, you must multiply the numerator and denominator by the complex conjugate of the denominator. Keep in mind that the complex conjugate of a complex number is the same complex number but the sign of the imaginary part is opposite. Let's see two examples.

  • Consider the complex number 1+3i. Its complex conjugate is 1-3i
  • Consider the complex number 1-3i. Its complex conjugate is 1+3i

For this case, the complex conjugate is used because it allows to remove the imaginary part in the denominator. Let's multiply the complex conjugate of the denominator both in the numerator and in the denominator:

I=\frac{1-i}{1+3i}\cdot \frac{1-3i}{1-3i}=\frac{1-3i-i+3i^2}{1-3i+3i-3^2i^2}

Remember that i^2=-1:

I=\frac{1-3i-i+3\cdot (-1)}{1-3i+3i-3^2\cdot (-1)}

It is time to simplify the expression:

I=\frac{1-3i-i-3}{1-3i+3i+3^2}=\frac{-2-4i}{10}

I=-\frac{2}{10}-\frac{4i}{10}

I=-0.2-0.4i

Thus, the current (I) expressed in the form a+bi is I=-0.2-0.4i, where a=-0.2 and b=-0.4.

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

take the payments over time payout

Explanation:

My personal opinion/advice would be to take the payments over time payout. There are many reasons for this, the first one being that most individuals are not used to receiving large sums of cash and usually end up wasting all the money as soon as they receive it, which usually does not occur if the payments are made over time. The second and more important reason is that if the payments are made over different years your would pay a much lesser amount on taxes every year that passes. This means that the even with the interest rate you would most likely have more overall money if you take the payments over time.

Kazeer [188]

Solution:

The reporting unit's book value of $250 million meets the market value of $220 million.

Requirement 1:

Determination of implied fair value of goodwill:

Fair value of Center point, Inc.                                               $220 million

Fair value of Center point’s net assets (excluding goodwill) 200 million

Implied fair value of goodwill                                                 $ 20 million

Measurement of impairment loss:

Book value of goodwill                           $62 million

Implied fair value of goodwill                  20 million

Impairment loss                                       $42 million

Requirement 2: If the operating unit's market valuation of 270 million dollars surpasses 250 million dollars, there is no depreciation risk.

Fixed cost per unit is inversely proportional to the volume of units produced.
Levart [38]
True. Fixed cost per unit is inversely proportional to the volume of units produced.

Fixed costs per unit are inversely proportional to the volume produced because depending on the amount of units made, the amount spent on fixed costs is then based. Because they are related to one another, this statement is true.

Which one of the following is the most likely reason why a stock price might not react at all on the day that new information re
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:The information was expected is the most likely reason why a stock price might not react at all on the day that new information related to the stock’s issuer is released. Assuming the market is semi strong form efficient.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The major reason that the stock price might not react to the information related to that stock was the expectancy of information in advance. It was a piece of expected information. When something is expected then our response towards it does not bring much change.

Similarly, when it is already expected to get some information related to the stock, on receiving that information the stock price does not react. It means it might neither fall nor rise.
