Show that z=1±i satisfies the equation z²-2z+2=0

Answers

We can show z = 1 ± i satisfies the equation [tex]z^2-2z+2=0[/tex] by putting the values of z in the given equation.

z = 1 ± i

Equation:

[tex]z^2-2z+2=0[/tex]

We have to show that z satisfies the given equation.

Complex numbers

A complex number is an element of a number system that extends the real numbers with a specific element denoted i, called the imaginary unit and satisfying the equation [tex]i^2 = -1[/tex]; every complex number can be expressed in the form a + bi, where a and b are real numbers.

Putting z = 1 + i in the given equation, we get

[tex](1+i)^2-2(1+i)+2 = 1 + i^2+2i -2-2i+2[/tex]

= (1 - 1 -2 +2) + (2i - 2i)  

= 0 + 0 = 0

Putting z = 1 - i in the given equation, we get

[tex](1-i)^2-2(1-i)+2 = 1 + i^2-2i -2+2i+2[/tex]

= ( 1 - 1 - 2 + 2) + (-2i+2i)

= 0 + 0 = 0

As we can see that putting z = 1 ± i  in the given equation, we get 0, hence, we have shown that z satisfies the given equation.

how to divide 306.67 and 254.00 i rlly need help i have a project due tmr.

Answers

The value of the quotient is 1.207

How to evaluate the quotient?

The statement is given as

Divide 306.67 and 254.00

Rewrite the above statement properly

So, we have

Divide 306.67 by 254.00

Rewrite the above statement as a quotient expression

So, we have

306.67/254.00

Express 306.67 as 254.00 + 52.67

So, we have

306.67/254.00 = (254.00 + 52.67)/254.00

Evaluate the quotient of 254 and 254

So, we have

306.67/254.00 = 1 + 52.67/254.00

Evaluate the other quotient

So, we have

306.67/254.00 = 1 + 0.207

306.67/254.00 = 1.207

Hence, the value of the statement "divide 306.67 and 254.00" is 1.207

Answers

a) As per the given percentage, the number of registered voters in the town who cast the votes are 155,952.

b) Reese claim is incorrect. The number he mentioned as registered voters is greater than the actual number of registered voters..

Percentage:

A percentage is a number or ratio which can be expressed as a fraction of 100.

For example, 57% can be written as 57/100.

Given,

The register voters and other in the town cast their vote on the election day.

a. In that particular town, 273,600 votes were cast in an election. And there are 57% of those who were registered voted.

Here we need to find how many registered voters are there in the town.

b. Reese claims that there are 60% of the registered voters cast 273,600 votes, there would be fewer registered voters than above.

Now we have also need to find whether his statement is correct or not with the reason.

Let x be the total number of registered voter who cast the vote.

From the given details, we know that, there are 273,600 voters are cast.

And 57% of them are registered voters.

So, it can be calculated as follows,

=> x  = 273600 of 57%

=> x = 273600 x 57%

=> x = 273600 x 57/100

=> x = 2736 x 57

=> x = 155, 952

Therefore, there are 155,952 registered voter in the town who cast the vote.

Based on these calculation we know that, Reese claims is incorrect because there the number of registered voters is 155, 952 which is not equal to the number he mentioned.

Simple Interest: What Is It?

Simple interest can be said as a quick and simple formula for figuring out how much amount of interest will be charged on a loan. The daily interest rate, the principle, and the total number of days present between payments are multiplied to calculate the simple interest.

Formulation

A = P (1 + rt)

FINAL AMOUNT = A

P is the starting primary balance.

Annual interest rate is r.

T = time (in years)

According to question,

7/100(x) + 12/100 (10000 -x) = 5900

7x + 120000 - 12x = 90000

x = $ 6000

P = 10000 - 600

= $ 4000

What does “simple interest” mean?

Simple interest is a kind of method for figuring out how much interest was paid on a sum of money during a specific time period at a specific rate. Simple interest has a constant principal amount. Simple interest is an absolutely clear-cut and simple method in order to compute financial interest.

10x² - (9x + 4x²) + 7 + (5x - 8)

Answers

When working with unknowable numbers, we can simplify equations by using the distributive property. If the equation be 10x² - (9x + 4x²) + 7 + (5x - 8) then we get 6x² - 4x - 1.

What is meant by distributive law?

The distributive property of binary operations in mathematics generalizes the distributive law, which states that in elementary algebra, equality is always true.

Let the equation be 10x² - (9x + 4x²) + 7 + (5x - 8)

Apply rule: a +(b + c) = a + b + c

7 + (5x - 8) = 7 + 5x - 8

= 10 x²- (9 x + 4 x²) + 7 + 5x - 8

simplifying the above equation, we get

= -(9x + 4x²) + 10x² + 5x + 7 - 8

Subtract the numbers: 7 - 8 = -1

= -(9x + 4x²) + 10x² + 5x - 1

Apply the distributive law: -(a + b) = -a - b = 0

-(9x + 4x²) = - 9x - 4x²

= -9x - 4x² + 10x² + 5x - 1

Add similar elements:

-4x² + 10x² = 6x² = -9x + 6x² + 5x - 1

simplifying the above equation, we get

= 6x² - 9x + 5x - 1

Add similar elements: -9x + 5x = -4x

= 6x² - 4x - 1

Therefore, by simplifying the equation, we get 6x² - 4x - 1.

The complete question is:

Answers

The number of miles that must be driven for the two-day rental from Company B to be less than Company A is 200 miles.

What is the number of miles?

The equation that can be used to determine the total cost of renting from Company A is:

Total cost = (cost per day x number of days) + (cost per mile x number of miles)

($25 x 2) + ($0.25 x m)

$50 + $0.25m

The equation that can be used to determine the total cost of renting from Company B is: ($35 x 2) + ($0.15 x m)

The equation that can be used to determine the number of miles where it would be cheaper to rent for two days from Company B is:

By evaluating the function f(x) = x² - 5 · x, the range of the function is {- 6, - 4, 14}.

How to determine the range of the function

In this problem we have a domain, that is, an input set, formed by three natural numbers and a quadratic equation that represents a function that allows us to find the corresponding elements of the range, that is, the output set. The elements of the range are found by evaluating the quadratic equation at each element from domain:

The equation of the line in the form y = mx + b are as follows:

How to find the equation of a line?

The equation of a line can be found as follows:

Using the slope intercept form,

y = mx + b

where

m = slopeb = y-intercept

Therefore, let's find the slope using the table.

(-4, 13)(-3, 11)

m = 11 - 13 / -3 + 4

m = - 2 / 1

m = -2

Let's find the y-intercept using (-4, 13)

13 = -2(-2) + b

13 - 4 = b

b = 9

Therefore, the equation of the line is y = -2x + 9

Using the second table,

(0, -3)(2, 1)

m = 1 + 3 / 2 - 0

m = 4 / 2

m = 2

y-intercept = b = -3

And it can be simply expressed as 0.03/0.148

Now, we have the quotient as:

0.2027

Now, when rounding off the numbers we know that the digits from where we are rounding off we look at the right next to that digit and when that digit is greater than 5 then the digit should be increased by 1 and when that digit is less than 5 then the digit should be the same.

So, we will round it off by taking the underlined digit to be next to first 2:

So, the digit is 0.

Butt if we are taking the underlined digit as 2 to be the next 2 then the digit next to it is 7 which is greater than 5.
