Answer:

  -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Alternate terms have a sum of zero:

  i^n +i^(n+2) = (i^n)(1 +i^2) = (i^n)(1 -1) = 0

So, the sum to i^256 is zero, and i^257 +i^259 = 0. The value of the sum is then i^258 = i^(258 mod 4) = i^2 = -1

The given expression evaluates to -1.

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that i+i^2+i^3+i^4 = i-1-i+1 = 0, and this means that every 4 terms, the terms cancel to 0. Therefore, by taking modulo 4, we only need to find i^{257}+i^{258}+i^{259} = i-1-i = -1 since $i$ has a cycle of 4.

sweet-ann [11.9K]

let the price of pizza and soda( per 2 litre bottle) be x and y

from 1st condition

12x+2y=137.6.....(1)

from 2nd condition

x+y =11.95.......(2)

multiply eq. (2) by 2

2x+2y=23.9.....(3)

subtracting (1) and (3)

12x+2y=137.6

2x+2y= 23.9

10x = 113.7

x=113.7/10

x=11.37

2(11.37)+2y=23.9

22.74+2y=23.9

2y=23.9-22.7

2y=1.2

y=0.6

So the prices of  the pizza and soda are 11.37 and 0.6 dollars.
