Simplify the given expression below: 4 divided by the quantity of 3 minus 2i

2 answers:

3 0

This is rationalising the denominator of an imaginary fraction. We want to remove all i's from the denominator.

To do this, we multiply the fraction by 1. However 1 can be expressed in an infinite number of ways. For example, 1 = 2/2 = 3/3 = 4n^2 / 4n^2 (assuming n is not zero!). Let's express 1 as the complex conjugate of the denominator, divided by the complex conjugate of the denominator.

The complex conjugate of (3 - 2i) is (3 + 2i). Then do what I just said:

4/(3-2i) * (3+2i)/(3+2i) = 4(3+2i)/(3-2i)(3+2i) = (12+8i)/(9-4i^2) = (12+8i)/(9+4) = (12+8i)/13

This is the answer you are looking for. I hope this helps :)

Answer:

4/(3-2i) * (3+2i)/(3+2i) = 4(3+2i)/(3-2i)(3+2i) = (12+8i)/(9-4i^2) = (12+8i)/(9+4) = (12+8i)/13

A forest ranger is in a forest 2 miles from a straight road. A car is located c miles down the road. The forest ranger can walk

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

T(x) = (√(4+x^2))/2 +(c -x)/4
(a) x = 1.155 miles
(b) x = 1/2 mile

Step-by-step explanation:

The straight line distance from the starting point to the point x on the road is given by the Pythagorean theorem:

d1 = √(2²+x²)

The time required to walk that distance in the woods (at 2 miles per hour) is ...

time = distance / speed

t1 = √(4+x²)/2

The remaining distance along the road to the car is ...

d2 = c - x . . . . . for c > x

and the corresponding time at 4 mph is ...

t2 = (c -x)/4

Then the total time is ...

T(x) = t1 +t2

T(x) = √(4+x²)/2 +(c -x)/4

(a) The value of x that minimizes total time is the one that makes the derivative zero.

T'(x) = x/(2√(4+x²)) -1/4

0 = (2x -√(4+x²))/(4√(4+x²))

√(4+x²) = 2x . . . . . fraction is zero when numerator is zero; add radical

4 +x² = 4x² . . . . . . square both sides

4/3 = x² . . . . . . . . . subtract x², divide by 3

x = (2/3)√3 ≈ 1.1547

If c = 9 miles, x = 1.1547 miles.

(b) For c < (2/3)√3, the shortest travel time will be along the straight-line path to the car.

If c = 1/2 mile, x = 1/2 mile.

Prove the following using a proof by contradiction:The average of four real numbers is greater than or equal to at least one of

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

By contradiction it can be proved that:

Average of four real numbers will be greater than or equal to at least one of the four real numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Method of contradiction means we assume opposite to the facts to be proved and then we contradict our assumption.

As a result, we prove the fact.

Here, let the four number be:

$p, q, r, s$

The average will be Sum of all numbers divided by count of numbers.

$\dfrac{p+ q+ r+ s}4$

Now, let us assume the opposite that the average is less than all the numbers.

i.e.

$\dfrac{p+ q+ r+ s}4$

Now, let us add all of them:

$\dfrac{p+ q+ r+ s}4 +\dfrac{p+ q+ r+ s}4 +\dfrac{p+ q+ r+ s}4 +\dfrac{p+ q+ r+ s}4 < p+q+r+s\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{4(p+q+r+s)}4$

Which can never be possible hence, our assumption is contradicted.

our assumption is wrong.

Therefore, by contradiction it is proved that:

Average of four real numbers will be greater than or equal to at least one of the four real numbers.

Daniel’s tennis team made $582.85 from running the concession stand at a basketball game. The food and drinks cost the team $64.

Kobotan [32]

Let x be the number of members in Daniel's tennis team.

The amount made = $582.85
Expenses (food and drinks) = $64
Balance remaining for sharing = 582.85 - 64 = $518.85

Amount received by each player = (amount made - Expenses)/Number of members = 518.85/x
