Answer:

5 + 2i

We were given the complex numbers;

a = - 2 - 5i

and

b = - i

We want to find the product;

ab^3                            ^ = Exponent

We substitute the complex numbers into the expression and simplify

( - 2 - 5i ) (i)^3                     ^ = Exponent            

This is rewritten as:

( - 2 - 5i) (i)^2     x  i                           ^ = Exponent

Note that

i^2 = - 1                                            ^ = Exponent

We substitute to obtain:

( - 2 - 5i )  x  - i                

Let us expand to get:  

- 2 x - i + 5i  x  - i

This simplifies to:

2i - 5i^2                           ^ = Exponent

This gives:

2i - 5 ( - 1 ) = 2i + 5

Hope This Helps

Please find which quadratic equation matches the graph with work attached
lesya [120]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we know that the function must be negative due to its shape. This means that the answer cannot be B

Next we can use the equation x=\frac{-b}{2a} that is used in order to find the vertex of the parabola.

A)

f(x)=-x^2+6x+7\\a=-1,b=6,c=7\\\\x=\frac{-6}{-2} \\x=3

As the vertex is at x=3 on the graph, this one could be a contender.

C)

f(x)=-x^2+6x-7\\a=-1,b=6, c=-7\\\\x=\frac{-6}{-2} \\\\x=3

This also could be the equation

D)

f(x)=-x^2-6x-7\\\\a=-1, b=-6, c=-7\\\\x=\frac{6}{-2} \\\\x=-3

This rules option D out.

For this last step, we can look at where the zeroes would be for each equation. (These values are irrational, so we cannot look at specific number)

A)

f(x)=-(x^2-6x-7)

As this equation has a negative value for c, this means that one zero must be positive and the other must be negative.

This means that option A can be ruled out

C)

f(x)=-(x^2-6x+7)

As this equation has a positive value for c, this means that both of the zeroes must be positive. This means that it is the only one that fits all of the criteria.

Answer:

the big tank can hold 2027.37 m³of water

10 small tanks can be filled

Step-by-step explanation:

r = 11, h = 16

V = (1/3)πr²h

V = (1/3)121π(16)

1936π/3 = 2027.37

2027.37/200 = 10. 136

What’s the equation of the line that passes through (2,3) and is parallel to the line 12x-5y=2
TiliK225 [7]

12x-5y=2

-5y=2-12x

y=-2/5+12/5x

should know the m=12/5

and (2,3) bring them to the line equation:

3=12/5x2+b

6/5+b=3

b=3-6/5

b=9/5

y=12/5x+9/5

Which means the answer is not in the choices.
