Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
If Z is a complex number:
Z = a + b*i
where a and b are real numbers, and i is an imaginary number.
Then "a" is the real part.
"b*i" is the imaginary part.
The conjugate of Z is:
Zc = a - b*i
So the sign of the imaginary part changes.
Then:
Sum:
Z + Zc = (a + bi) + (a - bi) = 2*a + 0 = 2*a
and remember that a is a real number, then 2*a is also a real numer.
The correct answer is "A real number".
Difference:
Z - Zc = (a + bi) - (a - bi) = 2b*i
and this is a pure imaginary number, so here the correct answer is: "a pure imaginary number"
The question supplied is incomplete. The complete question is shown below:
The Gross national product (GNP) is the value of all the goods and services produced in an economy, plus the value of goods and services imported, less the goods and services exported. During the period of 1994-2004, the GNP of Canada grew about 4.8% per year, measured in 2003 dollars. In 1994, the GNP was $5.9 billion. Assuming this rate continues, in what year with the GNP reach $10 billion?
Answer:
2006
Step-by-step explanation:
Every year, the new GNP will become (100 + 4.8)% of that of the previous year. That is 104.8%, and equivalent of 1.048.
Let P(y) be the GNP after a period of y years.
After y years, the equation for calculating A(y) becomes
A(y)=5.9*(1.048)^y
Since A(y) = 10
10=5.9*(1.048)^y
10/5.9 =(1.048)^y
1.695=(1.048)^y
ln(1.695) = ln(1.048)^y
ln(1.695) = y ln1.048
y=ln1.695/ln1.048
y=11.26 years
1994 + 12 = 2006
Canada’s GNP will reach $10 billion in the year 2006
time would be the independent variable as it doesnt depend on the distance. distance is dependant as you need a certain amount of time to get somewhere..
No, a cubic equation can not have three complex roots. This is because it turns twice and one end goes to positive infinity and one end goes to negative infinity. Thus, one of these MUST cross the x-axis at some point, meaning y = 0 and a real root exists.
Yes, a cubic equation can have three real roots if it cuts the x-axis three times.
