Answer:

The square root of -16 is an imaginary number and a complex number. Sqrt(-16)=4i. We use the i to indicate that the number is imaginary since there is no number that can be multiplied by itself to get a negative number (a negative times a negative is a positive, and a positive times a positive is also a positive). So the use of i tells you immediately that it's an imaginary number. You can tell the number is complex because it has both a real and an imaginary part and could be written in the form a+bi, where a is a real number and bi is an imaginary number. In this specific case, the real part (a) is 0 and the imaginary part (bi) is 4i.

Find the slope of each line.<br><br> Y= -5/2x — 5

Dmitriy789 [7]

To find the slope of the line, simply remember the basic equation for the slope intercept.

Y = mx +/- b

Where m = slope or rise/run
b = y intercept.

In this case the slope is a negative value and is -5/2.

A radio station is going to construct a 5-foot tower on top of a building. the tower will be supported by three cables, each att

KonstantinChe [14]

You need to use Pythagoras’ Theorem.
A² + B² = c² and c is the hypotenuse of the right angled triangle.

The height of the tower (5 feet) is A and the distance from the end of the cable and the base of the tower (12 feet) is B. The length of ONE cable is c. So:

A² + B² = c²
5² + 12² = c²
25 + 144 = c²
169 = c²
13 = c. This is the length of one cable.

3 x 13 = 39 therefore the total length of the cables is 39 feet.
