Answer:

The answer is 3 1/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

-There are 2 simple ways to do this.

-The first is just subtracting 3/4 and 1/4 which equals 2/4 or 1/2.

-The second way is to turn it into an improper fraction.

-(5*4)+3=23 and (2*4)+1=9.

-23/4-9/4=14/4

-14/4=3 1/2

Answer:

3 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

5 3/4 - 2 1/4

First subtract the whole numbers of the two mixed fractions, so:

= 5 - 2

= 3

Now, combine the leftover fractions:

= 3/4 - 1/4

= 2/4

= 1/4

Lastly, put the whole number and fraction together:

= 3 1/4

LiRa [457]

$(3-4i)(a+bi)=25\qquad\text{use FOIL method}\\\\(3)(a)+(3bi)+(-4i)(a)+(-4i)(bi)=25+0i\\\\3a+3bi-4ai-4bi^2=25+0i\\\\3a+3bi-4ai-4b(-1)=25+0i\\\\3a+3bi-4ai+4b=25+0i\\\\(3a+4b)+(3b-4a)i=25+0i\\.\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\Downarrow\\\\3a+4b=25\ and\ 3b-4a=0\\\\3b-4a=0\qquad\text{add 4a to both sides}\\\\3b=4a\qquad\text{divide both sides by 3}\\\\b=\dfrac{4}{3}a\qquad\text{substitute it to the first equation}\\\\3a+4\left(\dfrac{4}{3}a\right)=25\\\\3a+\dfrac{16}{3}a=25\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 3}$

$9a+16a=75\\\\25a=75\qquad\text{divide both sides by 25}\\\\\boxed{a=3}\qquad\text{put the value of a to}\ b=\dfrac{4}{3}a:\\\\b=\dfrac{4}{3}(3)\\\\\boxed{b=4}\\\\Answer:\ \boxed{(3-4i)\underline{(3+4i)}=25}$
