(2 – 3i) and (4 + 3i)
The product of the two complex numbers above is a - 6i, where a is a constant. What is the value of a ?
(Note: i = -1)

Answers

Answer 1

Expanding the product gives

(2 - 3i) (4 + 3i) = 8 - 12i + 6i - 9i² = (8 + 9) + (6 - 12) i = 17 - 6i

so a = 17.

X' + 2y' + x = 0 , x' - y' + y = 0 x(0) = 0 and y(0) = 1

Answers

This looks like a system of differential equations.

[tex]\begin{cases}x' + 2y' + x = 0 \\ x' - y' + y = 0 \\x(0)=0, y(0)=1\end{cases}[/tex]

Eliminating x' gives

[tex](x'+2y'+x)-(x'-y'+y) = 0 - 0 \implies 3y' - y + x = 0[/tex]

and eliminating y' gives

[tex](x'+2y'+x) + 2(x'-y'+y)=0+2\times0 \implies 3x' + x + 2y = 0[/tex]

so that we can rewrite the system as

[tex]\begin{cases}3x' = -x - 2y \\ 3y' = -x + y\end{cases}[/tex]

or equivalently in matrix form as

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}x\\y\end{bmatrix}' = \dfrac13 \begin{bmatrix}-1&-2\\-1&1\end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix}x\\y\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

Compute the eigenvalues for the coefficient matrix:

[tex]\det\begin{bmatrix}-1-\lambda&-2\\-1&1-\lambda\end{bmatrix} = (-1-\lambda)(1-\lambda) - 2 = \lambda^2 -3 = 0 \implies \lambda=\pm\sqrt3[/tex]

Compute the corresponding eigenvectors:

[tex]\lambda=\sqrt3 \implies \begin{bmatrix}-1-\sqrt3&-2\\-1&1-\sqrt3\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}v_1\\v_2\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}0\\0\end{bmatrix} \\\\ \implies v_1=(1-\sqrt3)v_2 \implies \vec v = \begin{bmatrix}1-\sqrt3\\1\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

[tex]\lambda=-\sqrt3 \implies \begin{bmatrix}-1+\sqrt3&-2\\-1&1+\sqrt3\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}v_1\\v_2\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}0\\0\end{bmatrix} \\\\ \implies v_1 = (1+\sqrt3)v_2 \implies \vec v = \begin{bmatrix}1+\sqrt3\\1\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

We end up multiplying the matrix by 1/3, so the eigenvalues also get scaled by 1/3 and λ = ±1/√3. The eigenvectors stay the same.

Then the characteristic solution to the system is

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}x\\y\end{bmatrix} = C_1 e^{t/\sqrt3} \begin{bmatrix}\frac{1-\sqrt3}3\\\frac13\end{bmatrix} + C_2 e^{-t/\sqrt3} \begin{bmatrix}\frac{1+\sqrt3}3\\\frac13\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

Use the initial conditions to solve for the constants.

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}0\\1\end{bmatrix} = C_1 \begin{bmatrix}\frac{1-\sqrt3}3\\\frac13\end{bmatrix} + C_2 \begin{bmatrix}\frac{1+\sqrt3}3\\\frac13\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \begin{cases}(1-\sqrt3) C_1 + (1+\sqrt3) C_2 = 0 \\ C_1 + C_2 = 3\end{cases}[/tex]

[tex]\implies C_1=\dfrac{3+\sqrt3}2, C_2=\dfrac{3-\sqrt3}2[/tex]

Then the particular solution is

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}x\\y\end{bmatrix} = \dfrac{3+\sqrt3}6 e^{t/\sqrt3} \begin{bmatrix}1-\sqrt3\\1\end{bmatrix} + \dfrac{3-\sqrt3}6 e^{-t/\sqrt3} \begin{bmatrix}1+\sqrt3\\1\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

or

[tex]\begin{cases}x(t) = -\dfrac1{\sqrt3} e^{\sqrt3 \, t} + \dfrac1{\sqrt3} e^{-\sqrt3\,t} \\\\ y(t) = \dfrac{3+\sqrt3}6 e^{\sqrt3\,t} + \dfrac{3-\sqrt3}6 e^{-\sqrt3\,t}\end{cases}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

0.725 is 72.5% of 1. 100% technically counts as 1. so 72.5%

.725=72.5%
.725 is out of 1, and you multiply that number by 100 to get the percentage

68 is 17% of what number?
68 = 0.17 • X
x = [?]

Answers

Answer:

400

Step-by-step explanation:

Division cancels multiplication. Divide by 0.17 to isolate "x" on the right side of the equation.

68 = 0.17 * x

divide both sides by 0.17

400 = x

68 is 17 percentage of the number 400.

To find the number that 68 is 17% of, we can set up the equation:

17% of x = 68

To solve for x, we need to divide both sides of the equation by 17% (or 0.17 as a decimal):

x = 68 / 0.17

Evaluating the division:

x=400

Therefore, 68 is 17% of 400.

12) A job offers you $15 an hour. Your boss
states that a percentage of your check will
be taken out for taxes, and then $35 for
medical insurance and $4 for dental
insurance. If you worked 38 hours, and
your total paycheck (for the week) was
$462.60, what percentage is taken out for
taxes?

Answers

Answer:

12%

Step-by-step explanation:

Total paycheck before taking out taxes and insurance :

38×15 = 570

Left Amount of money after applying taxes :

570 - 570×(p/100)

= 570×[1 - (p/100)]

= 570×[(100-p)/100]

= (570/100) × [100 - p]

= 5.7 × [100 - p]

After taking out  the insurance amounts we can write this equation:

.,7 × [100 - p] - (35+4) = 462.6

⇔ 5.7 × [100 - p] - 39 = 462.6

⇔ 5,7 × [100 - p] = 462.6 + 39

⇔ 5,7 × [100 - p] = 501.6

⇔ 100 - p = 501.6/5.7

⇔ 100 - p = 88

⇔ p = 100 - 88

⇔ p = 12

  A = Pe^(rt)

We want to find P, given the other parameters in this formula.

__

  38956.06 = P(e^(0.09×19)) = P(5.52896148)

  P = 38956.06/5.52896148 ≈ 7045.82

Please help!!!!!!!! Determine the function which corresponds to the given graph.

Answers

The rational function shown in the graph is:

[tex]y = \frac{x - 6}{x - 5}[/tex]

How to determine the function?

First, we can see that we have an asymptote at x = 5, so the denominator becomes equal to zero when x = 5.

Then the rational function is something like:

[tex]y = \frac{g(x)}{x - 5}[/tex]

We also can see that when x = 6, the function intercepts the x-axis, then we must have that:

g(6) = 0

So we can define:

g(x) = x - 6

So the rational function is:

[tex]y = \frac{x - 6}{x - 5}[/tex]

HELP ME PLEASE ! HOMEWORK DUE IN LESS THAN 2 HOURS! NO CLUE ON HOW TO DO THIS ! OFFERING 15 POINTS​

Answers

Answer:

Edna had $510 more amount of money than Toby in the end.

Step-by-step explanation:

LET :-

Edna's amount of money - x

Fatimah's amount of money - y

Toby's amount of money - z

Now,

By the question,

x = 4y

y : (y + z) = 5 : 8

y - 30 = z + 30

Now,

y : (y + z) = 5 :8

or, y/(y + z) = 5/8

or, 8y = 5y + 5z

or, 3y = 5z

so, y = 5z/3

Now,

y - 30 = z + 30

or, 5z/3 - 30 = z + 30

or, (5z - 90)/3 = z + 30

or, 5z - 90 = 3z + 90

or, 5z - 3z = 90 + 90

or, 2z = 180

so, z = 90

Toby's amount of money - $90

Now,

y = 5z/3

or, y = 5 * 90/3

or, y = 5 * 30

so, y = 150

Fatimah's amount of money - $150

Again,

x = 4y

or, x = 4*150

or, x = 600

Edna's amount of money - $600

Now,

$600 - $90

= $510

Therefore,Edna had $510 more amount of money than Toby in the end.

Find the turning point of y=x^2+10x+12

Answers

Answer:

vertex = (- 5, - 13 )

Step-by-step explanation:

given a quadratic in standard form : y = ax² + bx + c ( a ≠ 0 )

then the x- coordinate of the turning point ( vertex) is

x = - [tex]\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]

y = x² + 10x + 12 ← is in standard form

with a = 1, b = 10 , then

x = - [tex]\frac{10}{2}[/tex] = - 5

substitute x = - 5 into the equation and evaluate for y

y = (- 5)² + 10(- 5) + 12 = 25 - 50 + 12 = - 13

Nancy Regan purchased a new diamond bracelet for $12,600. The state sales tax is 6% and the federal excise tax on the jewelry is 11%. What is the total purchase price of the bracelet? Round your answer to the nearest cent.

Answers

Using proportions, it is found that the total purchase price of the bracelet is of $10,769.

What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount.

In this problem, we consider the two taxes, of 6% and 11%, hence the price suffers an increase of 17%, that is, the price is multiplied by 117% = 1.17 to reach $12,600, hence:

1.17p = 12600

p = 12600/1.17

p = 10769.

The total purchase price of the bracelet is of $10,769.
