x¹ = -2 x² = -8

y¹ = -1 y² = 12

Using midpoint formula,

M = ( x¹ + x²/2 ,y¹ + ý²/2)

or,M ={ -2+(-8)/2 , (-1) +12/2}

or, =( -10/2 , 11/2)

:M = ( -5 , 11/2)

Perform the indicated operations. Write the answer in standard form, a+bi.<br> 5-3i / -2-9i

Vsevolod [243]

$\huge \boxed{\mathfrak{Answer} \downarrow}$

$\large \bf\frac { 5 - 3 i } { - 2 - 9 i } \\$

Multiply both numerator and denominator of $\sf \frac{5-3i}{-2-9i} \\$ by the complex conjugate of the denominator, -2+9i.

$\large \bf \: Re(\frac{\left(5-3i\right)\left(-2+9i\right)}{\left(-2-9i\right)\left(-2+9i\right)}) \\$

Multiplication can be transformed into difference of squares using the rule: $\sf\left(a-b\right)\left(a+b\right)=a^{2}-b^{2}$ .

$\large \bf \: Re(\frac{\left(5-3i\right)\left(-2+9i\right)}{\left(-2\right)^{2}-9^{2}i^{2}}) \\$

By definition, i² is -1. Calculate the denominator.

$\large \bf \: Re(\frac{\left(5-3i\right)\left(-2+9i\right)}{85}) \\$

Multiply complex numbers 5-3i and -2+9i in the same way as you multiply binomials.

$\large \bf \: Re(\frac{5\left(-2\right)+5\times \left(9i\right)-3i\left(-2\right)-3\times 9i^{2}}{85}) \\$

Do the multiplications in $\sf5\left(-2\right)+5\times \left(9i\right)-3i\left(-2\right)-3\times 9\left(-1\right)$ .

$\large \bf \: Re(\frac{-10+45i+6i+27}{85}) \\$

Combine the real and imaginary parts in -10+45i+6i+27.

$\large \bf \: Re(\frac{-10+27+\left(45+6\right)i}{85}) \\$

Do the additions in $\sf-10+27+\left(45+6\right)i$ .

$\large \bf Re(\frac{17+51i}{85}) \\$

Divide 17+51i by 85 to get $\sf\frac{1}{5}+\frac{3}{5}i \\$ .

$\large \bf \: Re(\frac{1}{5}+\frac{3}{5}i) \\$

The real part of $\sf \frac{1}{5}+\frac{3}{5}i \\$ is $\sf \frac{1}{5} \\$ .

$\large \boxed{\bf\frac{1}{5} = 0.2} \\$

What is the unit rate in feet per second for 240 yards/ 1 hour

Rzqust [24]

Take 60 minutes and times that by 60 to find your seconds. (s)
Next, take 240 times 3 to find your feet. (f)
Then, take your feet divided by seconds. (T)
