Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Set it up as fractions, Alex over Peter.

3/5 : 33/x Let x represent Peter's amount. Now find out: how do you get from 3 to 33? What times 3 equals 33? 11

What you do on the top, you must do on the bottom. If 3 times 11 equals 33, then 5 times 11 equals x. 5 times 11 equals 55, so x equals 55.

Peter will get 55. Don't forget the pound symbol.

Which of the following is equivalent to a real number?

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

C) -144^¹/₃

Step-by-step explanation:

Having a number to the power of a fraction is the equivalent of rooting by its reciprocal. So, the sixth root, fourth root, cube root, and square root. Only odd roots can have negative answers (∛x, x can be negative; √y, y can not be negative unless we talk about imaginary numbers).

Since we are looking for a real number, C, showing a cube root of a negative number, must be the answer.

Find the product of z1 and z2, where z1 = 7(cos 40° + i sin 40°) and z2 = 6(cos 145° + i sin 145°).

Oduvanchick [21]

For two complex numbers $z_1=re^{i\theta}=r(\cos\theta+i\sin\theta)$ and $z_2=se^{i\varphi}=s(\cos\varphi+i\sin\varphi)$ , the product is

$z_1z_2=rse^{i(\theta+\varphi)}=rs(\cos(\theta+\varphi)+i\sin(\theta+\varphi))$

That is, you multiply the moduli and add the arguments. You have $z_1=7e^{i40^\circ}$ and $z_2=6e^{i145^\circ}$ , so the product is

$z_1z_2=7\times6(\cos(40^\circ+145^\circ)+i\sin(40^\circ+145^\circ)=42(\cos185^\circ+i\sin185^\circ)=42e^{i185^\circ}$
