Recall that to plot a point in the complex plane we have to know its real part and its imaginary part.
The real part of the given number is
[tex]\sqrt[]{17}\cos 104^{\circ},[/tex]and its imaginary part is

The diamond method for factoring: Fill in the missing value
Answers
Consider a quadratic expression, let "m" and "n" represent the factors.
The diamond method of factoring is the following:
On the left of the diamond, there is one of the factors, for example, "m", of the right of the diamond you will find the other factor "n".
On the top of the diamond, you will find the product of both factors, on the bottom of the diamond you will find the sum of the factors.
Looking at the given diamond, you know the result of the product and the sum of both factors:
[tex]m*n=-15[/tex][tex]m+n=14[/tex]Using these expressions, you can find both factors.
- First, write the second expression for one of the variables, for example, for "n"
[tex]\begin{gathered} m+n=14 \\ m=14-n \end{gathered}[/tex]- Second, replace the expression obtained on the second equation:
[tex]\begin{gathered} m*n=-15 \\ (14-n)n=-15 \end{gathered}[/tex]Distribute the multiplication
[tex]14n-n^2=-15[/tex]Zero the expression and order the terms from greatest to least:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 14n-n^2+15=-15+15 \\ 14n-n^2+15=0 \\ -n^2+14n+15=0 \end{gathered}[/tex]- Third, use the quadratic expression to determine the possible values of n:
[tex]x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]Where
a is the coefficient of the quadratic term
b is the coefficient of the x-term
c is the constant
For the quadratic expression obtained, where "n" represents the x-variable.
[tex]-n^2+14n+15=0[/tex]The coefficients are:
a= -1
b=14
c=15
[tex]\begin{gathered} x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a} \\ n=\frac{-14\pm\sqrt{14^2-4*(-1)*15}}{2*(-1)} \\ n=\frac{-14\pm\sqrt{196+60}}{-2} \\ n=\frac{-14\pm\sqrt{256}}{-2} \\ n=\frac{-14\pm16}{-2} \end{gathered}[/tex]Solve the sum and difference separately to determine both possible values for "n"
→Sum:
[tex]\begin{gathered} n=\frac{-14+16}{-2} \\ n=\frac{2}{-2} \\ n=-1 \end{gathered}[/tex]→Difference:
[tex]\begin{gathered} n=\frac{-14-16}{-2} \\ n=\frac{-30}{-2} \\ n=15 \end{gathered}[/tex]- Finally, determine the possible value/s of m:
For n=-1
[tex]\begin{gathered} m+n=14 \\ m+(-1)=14 \\ m-1=14 \\ m=14+1 \\ m=15 \end{gathered}[/tex]For n=15
[tex]\begin{gathered} m+n=14 \\ m+15=14 \\ m=14-15 \\ m=-1 \end{gathered}[/tex]So, the factors are -1 and 15 and the diamond is:

Therefore,
[tex]\begin{gathered} \angle M+\angle N=180\degree \\ \\ 30\degree+\angle N=180\degree \\ \\ \angle N=180\degree-30\degree \\ \\ \angle N=150\degree \end{gathered}[/tex]Final Answer:

Answers
To find 27% of 16 using multiplication by a decimal, we can proceed as follows:
First, convert the number 27 in decimal:
[tex]16\cdot\frac{27}{100}=16\cdot0.27=4.32[/tex]A way to estimate the possible value, we can multiply the number 16 by the nearest tenth, that is, 0.3. We know that the possible value is a little greater than the actual value.
We can do this in the following way:
[tex]16\cdot\frac{30}{100}=\frac{48}{100}=4.8[/tex]Then, after the estimation, we can say that the value must be less than 4.8. Multiplying by 3 or 30 is easier than by 27. This is a way to check the answer.
We can also say that if we multiply 16 by 3 is 48 (equivalently to 4.8, after doing the correct operations), and this is a quick value to know, that, approximately 4.32 is 27% of 16.

The simple interest is given by:
[tex]SI=Prt[/tex]where P is the principal (the amount we invest in the account), r is the interest rate and t is the time of investment.
Let P be the interest Larry made in the 2% account, the simple interest in this case is given by:
[tex]0.02P[/tex]Now for the second account we would have an envestment of (17000-P), then the simple interest have to be:
[tex]0.05(17000-P)[/tex]and we know that both investments have to be equal to 610, then we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 0.02P+0.05(17000-P)=610 \\ 0.02P+850-0.05P=610 \\ -0.03P=610-850 \\ -0.03P=-240 \\ P=\frac{-240}{-0.03} \\ P=8000 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore Larry invested $8000 in the 2% account and $9000 in the 5% account.

[tex]cos\theta=\frac{x}{7},sin\theta=\frac{y}{5}[/tex]replace,

The complete trigonometry ratios are sin(220) = -sin(40) and cos(220) = cos(140) and the angles are 40 and 220 degrees
How to determine the measure of the angles?Angle 1
The trigonometry ratio of the angle is given as
sin(220)
Expand the above expression
sin(220) = sin(180 + 40)
Apply the sine rule
sin(220) = sin(180)cos(40) + cos(180)sin(40)
Evaluate the ratios
sin(220) = 0 x cos(40) - sin(40)
So, we have
sin(220) = - sin(40)
So, the measure of the angle is 40 degrees
Angle 2
The trigonometry ratio of the angle is given as
cos(220)
Expand the above expression
cos(220) = cos(360 - 140)
Apply the cosine rule
cos(220) = cos(360)cos(140) + sin(140)sin(360)
Evaluate the ratios
cos(220) = 1 x cos(140) + sin(140) x 0
So, we have
cos(220) = cos(140)
So, the measure of the angle is 140 degrees

A helicopter pilot sights a landmark an an angle of depression of 34°. The altitudeof the helicopter is 1,748 feet. To the nearest foot, what is the horizontal distancefrom the helicopter to the landmark?
Answers
For the question, we will be making a sketch showing the features in the question.
From the sketch and the question, the angle of depression = 34 degrees
The helicopter height above the ground (altitude) = 1,748 ft
L represents the landmark
x = horizontal distance from the helicopter to the landmark
To solve the question, we need to bring out the right triangle from the sketch
Angle e = 34 degrees (alternate to the angle of depression given)
To get x, we make use of the trigonometrical ratio of tan
[tex]\begin{gathered} \tan \text{ }\theta=\frac{opposite}{adjacent} \\ \text{From the right triangle, the opposite = 1748} \\ \text{The adjacent = x} \\ \theta=34^0 \\ \tan \text{ 34 =}\frac{\text{1748}}{x} \\ \text{Making x the subject of the formula, we have} \\ x=\frac{1748}{\tan 34} \\ x=\frac{1748}{0.6745} \\ x=2591.55 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the horizontal distance from the helicopter to the landmark to the nearest foot is 2592 feet.

Recall that:
[tex]\text{salesprice}=\text{originalprice+taxes.}[/tex]Therefore Daisy pays:
[tex]24.74-21=3.74\text{ dollars}[/tex]in taxes for the videogame.
Now, recall that to determine the percentage that a represents from b we use the following expression:
[tex]\frac{a}{b}\cdot100.[/tex]Therefore, the sales tax applied to the videogame is:
[tex]\frac{3.74\text{dollars}}{21\text{dollars}}\cdot100\approx17.81[/tex]percent.
Answer: The tax applied to the videogame is 17.81%, in this case, the sales tax is 3.74 dollars.
