Answer:

1,705 elk

Step-by-step explanation:

7,750 / 50 =  155 groups of elk

155 groups x 11 per group = 1,705 elk.

Answer:

Let be a rational complex number of the form z = \frac{a + i\,b}{c + i\,d}, we proceed to show the procedure of resolution by algebraic means:

1) \frac{a + i\,b}{c + i\,d}   Given.

2) \frac{a + i\,b}{c + i\,d} \cdot 1 Modulative property.

3) \left(\frac{a+i\,b}{c + i\,d} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{c-i\,d}{c-i\,d} \right)   Existence of additive inverse/Definition of division.

4) \frac{(a+i\,b)\cdot (c - i\,d)}{(c+i\,d)\cdot (c - i\,d)}   \frac{x}{y}\cdot \frac{w}{z} = \frac{x\cdot w}{y\cdot z}  

5) \frac{a\cdot (c-i\,d) + (i\,b)\cdot (c-i\,d)}{c\cdot (c-i\,d)+(i\,d)\cdot (c-i\,d)}  Distributive and commutative properties.

6) \frac{a\cdot c + a\cdot (-i\,d) + (i\,b)\cdot c +(i\,b) \cdot (-i\,d)}{c^{2}-c\cdot (i\,d)+(i\,d)\cdot c+(i\,d)\cdot (-i\,d)} Distributive property.

7) \frac{a\cdot c +i\,(-a\cdot d) + i\,(b\cdot c) +(-i^{2})\cdot (b\cdot d)}{c^{2}+i\,(c\cdot d)+[-i\,(c\cdot d)] +(-i^{2})\cdot d^{2}} Definition of power/Associative and commutative properties/x\cdot (-y) = -x\cdot y/Definition of subtraction.

8) \frac{(a\cdot c + b\cdot d) +i\cdot (b\cdot c -a\cdot d)}{c^{2}+d^{2}} Definition of imaginary number/x\cdot (-y) = -x\cdot y/Definition of subtraction/Distributive, commutative, modulative and associative properties/Existence of additive inverse/Result.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be a rational complex number of the form z = \frac{a + i\,b}{c + i\,d}, we proceed to show the procedure of resolution by algebraic means:

1) \frac{a + i\,b}{c + i\,d}   Given.

What is 1 2/3 as an improper fraction
nataly862011 [7]
Hi there! To turn a mixed number into a improper fraction we multiply 1 by 3 and add 2. 1 2/3=1×3+2/3=5/3. Therefore, 1 2/3 as an improper fraction is 5/3.

the midpoint of [KL] is (-8, 1). one endpoint is K(-6, 5). find the coordinates of the other endpoint L
ExtremeBDS [4]

the correct question is

The midpoint of kl is m(–8, 1). one endpoint is k(–6, 5). find the coordinates of the other endpoint l.


we know that

the formula of midpoint is

Xm=(x1+x2)/2----> 2*Xm=x1+x2------> x2=2*Xm-x1

Ym=(y1+y2)/2----> 2*Ym=y1+y2------> y2=2*Ym-y1


let

(x1,y1)-------> (–6, 5).

(Xm,Ym)-----> (-8,1)


find (x2,y2)

x2=2*Xm-x1-----> 2*(-8)-(-6)----> -10

 y2=2*Ym-y1----> 2*(1)-5-----> -3


the point l is (-10,-3)
