Multiply both numerator and denominator of by the complex conjugate of the denominator, -2+9i.
Multiplication can be transformed into difference of squares using the rule: .
By definition, i² is -1. Calculate the denominator.
Multiply complex numbers 5-3i and -2+9i in the same way as you multiply binomials.
Do the multiplications in .
Combine the real and imaginary parts in -10+45i+6i+27.
Do the additions in .
Divide 17+51i by 85 to get .
The real part of is
.
Answer:
The correct option is D. 2/7
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the provided information.
There are 8 volunteers including Andrew and Karen, 4 people are to be selected at random to organize a charity event.
We need to determine the probability Andrew will be among the 4 volunteers selected and Karen will not.
We want to select Andrew and 3 others but not Karen in the group.
Thus, the number of ways to select 3 member out of 8-2=6
(We subtract 2 from 8 because Andrew is already selected and we don't want Karen to be selected, so subtract 2 from 8.)
The required probability is:
Hence, the correct option is D. 2/7
