The definition of complex, real and pure imaginary number is as follows:

A \ \mathbf{complex \ number} \ is \ written \ in \ \mathbf{standard \ form} \ as:\\ \\ \ (a+bi) \\ \\ where \ a \ and \ b \ are \ real \ numbers. \ If \ b=0, \ the \ number \ a+bi=a \\ is \ a \ \mathbf{real \ number}. \ If \ b\neq 0, \ the \ number \ (a+bi) \ is \ called \ an \\ \mathbf{imaginary \ number}. \ A \ number \ of \ the \ form \ bi, \ where \ b\neq 0, \\ is \ called \ a \ \mathbf{pure \ imaginary \ number}

The absolute value of this number is given by:

|a+bi|=\sqrt{a^{2}+b^{2}}

So, the absolute value of a complex number represents the distance between the origin and the point in the complex plane. On the other hand, the absolute value of a real number means only<em> how far</em> a number is from zero without considering any direction.

The absolute value of a real number is a positive value of the number. Which means that the absolute value is the distance from zero of the number line. However, that of the complex numbers is the distance from the origin to the point in a complex plane.

The equation y= -5.131x^2 + 31.821x - 3.333 approximates the number of people standing in line to catch a commuter train x hours
GREYUIT [131]
The answer should be D since after 5 am to 7 am only two hours have passed so x=2, and then you plug in the x as 2 and solve it. You might get not around answer like 39.785 but when you round it, it would be 40.

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Therefore you will have to wait 11 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the number of minutes between 5:00am and 8:37am

60 mins in an hour.

8-5=3 hours

60x3=180+37=217 minutes

Divide 217 by 12 to see how many bus stops have already been made

217/12=18

18*12=216

217-216=1 minute

12-1=11 minutes



Hope this helps!
