Answer:

119

Step-by-step explanation:

Find 10% by dividing by 10, then halve it to get 5%. The answers are 14 and 7 accordingly.

Add them together to get 15%, which is now 21.

Take 21 off of 140 to get the answer, which is 119.

ALTERNATIVE METHOD - CALCULATOR

To solve the question using a calculator and with only one equation, multiply the number by 0.85 to find 85% of the number, and there's your answer.

Answer:

0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

The x increases by 5, while y increases by 3

Lets use the method, which is \frac{rise}{run}.

Keep in mind that x goes horizontally along the axis, while y goes vertically on the axis.

So plug the numbers in.

\frac{3}{5} = 0.6

Hence, the constant proportionality is 0.6.

What is √-11 in the form a+bi?
Mice21 [21]

Given:

The number is \sqrt{-11}.

To find:

The a+bi form of given number.

Solution:

We have,

\sqrt{-11}

It can be written as

\sqrt{-11}=\sqrt{-1\times 11}

\sqrt{-11}=\sqrt{-1}\times \sqrt{11}      [\because \sqrt{ab}=\sqrt{a}\sqrt{b}]

\sqrt{-11}=i\times \sqrt{11}      [\because \sqrt{-1}=i]

\sqrt{-11}=\sqrt{11}i

Here, real part is missing. So, it can be taken as 0.

\sqrt{-11}=0+\sqrt{11}i

So, a = 0 and b=\sqrt{11}.

Therefore, the a+bi form of given number is 0+\sqrt{11}i.
