Answer: -13w - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

-6w + (-8) + 1 + (-7w)

Combine the like terms

-8 + 1 = -7

-6w + (-7) + (-7w)

-6w + (-7w) = -13w

-13w + (-7)

However, because adding a negative number is the same as subtracting the number as a positive, you can just make it -13w - 7

If the measurment of the angles of a triangle are 3b,2b,and 4b then what is the smallest angle

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Given:

The measurement of the angles of a triangle are 3b,2b,and 4b.

To find:

The smallest angle.

Solution:

According to the angle sum property, the sum of all angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.

$3b+2b+4b=180^{\circ}$ [Angle sum property]

$9b=180^{\circ}$

Divide both sides by 9.

$b=20^{\circ}$

Now,

$3b=3(20^{\circ})=60^{\circ}$

$2b=2(20^{\circ})=40^{\circ}$

$3b=4(20^{\circ})=80^{\circ}$

Therefore, the smallest angle is 40 degrees.

At a bargain store, Tanya bought 3 items that each cost the same amount. Tony bought 4 items that each cost the same amount, but

babunello [35]

If x is the amount that Tanya paid for each item, then Tony's items would be x-2.25. So:
3x=4(x-2.25)

3x=4x-9
x=9
x-2.25=6.75
Tanya spent $9 on each item; Tony spent $6.75 on each of his items

Find the quotient of these Complex Numbers. <br><br><br> (5-i) / (3+2i)

JulsSmile [24]

Let the given complex number

z = x + ix = $\dfrac{5-i}{3+2i}$

We have to find the standard form of complex number.

Solution:

∴ x + iy = $\dfrac{5-i}{3+2i}$

Rationalising numerator part of complex number, we get

x + iy = $\dfrac{5-i}{3+2i}\times \dfrac{3-2i}{3-2i}$

⇒ x + iy = $\dfrac{(5-i)(3-2i)}{3^2-(2i)^2}$

Using the algebraic identity:

(a + b)(a - b) = $a^{2}$ - $b^{2}$

⇒ x + iy = $\dfrac{15-10i-3i+2i^2}{9-4i^2}$

⇒ x + iy = $\dfrac{15-13i+2(-1)}{9-4(-1)}$ [ ∵ $i^{2} =-1$ ]

⇒ x + iy = $\dfrac{15-2-13i}{9+4}$

⇒ x + iy = $\dfrac{13-13i}{13}$

⇒ x + iy = $\dfrac{13(1-i)}{13}$

⇒ x + iy = 1 - i

Thus, the given complex number in standard form as "1 - i".
