Simplify: 1 + i + i^2 + i^3 +i^4 +i^5 if i^2 =-1.
Vika [28.1K]

1 + <em>i</em> + <em>i</em> ² + <em>i</em> ³ + <em>i</em> ⁴ + <em>i</em> ⁵ = 1 + <em>i</em> + <em>i</em> ² (1 + <em>i</em> + <em>i </em>² + <em>i</em> ³)

… = 1 + <em>i </em>+ <em>i</em> ² (1 + <em>i</em> + <em>i</em> ² (1 + <em>i</em> ))

… = 1 + <em>i</em> + (-1) (1 + <em>i</em> + (-1) (1 + <em>i</em> ))

… = 1 + <em>i</em> + (-1) (1 + <em>i</em> - 1 - <em>i</em> )

… = 1 + <em>i</em>

<em />

Alternatively, notice that

1 - <em>i</em> ⁶ = (1 - <em>i</em> ) (1 + <em>i</em> + <em>i</em> ² + <em>i</em> ³ + <em>i</em> ⁴ + <em>i</em> ⁵)

so that

1 + <em>i</em> + <em>i</em> ² + <em>i</em> ³ + <em>i</em> ⁴ + <em>i</em> ⁵ = (1 - <em>i</em> ⁶) / (1 - <em>i</em> )

Now, <em>i</em> ⁶ = (<em>i</em> ²)³ = (-1)³ = -1, so

1 + <em>i</em> + <em>i</em> ² + <em>i</em> ³ + <em>i</em> ⁴ + <em>i</em> ⁵ = (1 - (-1)) / (1 - <em>i</em> )

… = 2 / (1 - <em>i</em> )

Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of 1 - <em>i</em> :

… = 2 (1 + <em>i</em> ) / ((1 - <em>i</em> ) (1 + <em>i</em> ))

… = 2 (1 + <em>i</em> ) / (1² - <em>i</em> ²)

… = 2 (1 + <em>i</em> ) / (1 + 1)

… = 1 + <em>i</em>

What are your attitude toward community colleges.
Stells [14]
Honestly community college is better then no college :) so if that’s your only option I’d do it! But the one near me seems like I wouldn’t enjoy it personally because it’s very plain and almost feels like your forced to be there.
