Answer: -i</h3>
========================================================
Explanation:
i = sqrt(-1)
Lets list out the first few powers of i
- i^0 = 1
- i^1 = i
- i^2 = -1
- i^3 = i*i^2 = i*(-1) = -i
- i^4 = (i^2)^2 = (-1)^2 = 1
By the time we reach the fourth power, we repeat the cycle over again (since i^0 is also equal to 1). The cycle is of length 4, which means we'll divide the exponent over 4 to find the remainder. Ignore the quotient. That remainder will determine if we go for i^0, i^1, i^2 or i^3.
For example, i^5 = i^1 because 5/4 leads to a remainder 1.
Another example: i^6 = i^2 since 6/4 = 1 remainder 2
Again, we only care about the remainder to find out which bin we land on.

Turning to the question your teacher gave you, we have,
739/4 = 184 remainder 3
So i^739 = i^3 = -i
<h3>
-i is the final answer</h3>
--------------
Side notes:
- if i^a = i^b, then a-b is a multiple of 4
- Recall that the divisibility by 4 trick involves looking at the last two digits of the number. So i^739 is identical to i^39.
59.96.
If you distribute 4 to 14.99 then you get the answer above.
Answer:
Different ways to solve a system of linear equations:
- isolate one variable in one equation and replace it in the other equation
- multiply/divide one equation by a constant and then add/subtract it to the other one, so that only one variable remains
- graph the equation and look at the intersection point
If you graph the system:
- there is only one solution if the lines intersects at only one point
- there is no solution if the lines don't intersect each other (they are parallel)
- there are infinitely many solutions if the lines overlap each other (they are the same equation multiplied by some constant)
Step-by-step explanation:
1st system
y = -x – 7
y = 4/3 x – 7
solution: x= 0, y = 7
2nd system
y = -3x – 5
y = x + 3
solution: x = -2, y = 1
3rd system
y = -2x + 5
y = 1/3 x – 2
solution: x = 3, y = -1
4th system
3x + 2y = 2
x + 2y = -2
solution: x = 2, y = -2
5th system
x + 3y = -9
2x – y = -4
solution: x = -3, y = -2
6th system
x – 2y = 2
-x + 4y = -8
solution: x = -4, y = -3
7th system
5x + y = -2
x + y = 2
solution: x = -1, y = -3
What you would do is you would substitute each ordered pair into their respective variables. (ie. for (0,1) you would put 0 where the x is and 1 where the y is) You would then solve the equation. If the equation is not even (ie. 2=5 would not be even but 4=4 would be), you move on to the next ordered pair.
If you follow the process right and you get the equations correct, the answer should be B. (7,-2)
