<u><em>Matteo is 4 inches taller than Nico. </em></u>

<u><em>Sarah is wrong because she didn't consider the conversion rate from ft to inches. </em></u>

  • We are told that;

Height of Matteo = 4 feet 3 inches

Height of Nico = 3 feet 11 inches.

  • Now to find the difference in height, we need to first convert both of their heights to inches.

From conversion tables, we know that;

12 inches = 1 ft.

  • Thus, their height in inches is;

Height of Matteo = (4 × 12) + 3 = 51 inches

Height of Nico = (3 × 12) + 11 = 47 inches

Thus, difference in height = 51 - 47 = 4 inches.

Thus, Matteo is 4 inches taller than Nico.

  • Looking at the method of Sarah, she didn't consider that the unit she was working with. If it was just units and tens subtraction, that method would have worked but she ought to have added 12 to 3 since it is from ft to inches instead of 10 to 3 as in the case of regular numbers without units.

If a = 2 + i, and b = 3 – 2i, whats b/a?
Usimov [2.4K]
B/a = (3 - 2i)/(2 + i)
To divide complex numbers, you multiply the numerator and denominator by the complex conjugate of the denominator.
The complex conjugate is 2 - i. ** Remember i^2 = -1    **a + bi

( 3 - 2i) ( 2 - i)
-------------------         Foil numerator and denominator.
(2 + i)  ( 2 - i)

 6 - 3i - 4i + 2i^2          6 - 7i - 2        4 - 7i                4    - 7i
---------------------          -----------        -------    OR     ---    -----   
         4 - i^2                  4 + 1              5                    5      5


The answer can be written either way. If they specify real part and imaginary part, the second option is correct.

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

11 cans

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you know that the ceiling is in the shape of a square and each side is 55ft, you can multiply 55x55 to get 3075, which is divided by 275 due to the amount of paint in a can. It would result in 11 cans, but if it were a decimal like 11.3, then you would need 12 cans since you can't split a can.
