What is the square root of -1700?

This solution involves imaginary numbers where the identity i2 = -1 is used and thus √-1 = i √-1700 = √(-1 x 1700) √-1 = i and √1700 = √(17 x 100 ) = √(17 x 102) = 10√17...so one way of expressing the answer is 10i√17. However, the square root of a positive number can be either positive or negative so the full answer is, √-1700 = ± 10i√17. Similarly, the solution can be written as, ± 41.231i. (3dp)


If Lindsey spent 125 on personal items did she spend 8 percent of her monthly income of 1700?

Since '1700' would be 100%, we can simply calculate the percentage she spent by dividing what she spent with her monthly income. 125 / 1700 = 0.0735 Now we multiply this number by 100 to get the total percentage she spent. 0.0735 x 100 = 7.35% So, no, she did not spend 8% of her monthly income, she only spent 7.35% Another way you can do this is by calculating how much 1% of her monthly income would be, and then multiplying it by 8 and comparing it to the total amount she spent. Since '1700' would be 100%, then '1700' divided by 100 would equal how much 1% of her monthly income is. 1700/100 = 17 Now, we can multiply that by 8. 17 x 8 = 136 So, $136 is how much 8% of Lindsey's income. Knowing this, and knowing she only spent $125, the answer is No, she did not spend 8% of her $1700 monthly income. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Or multiply 1700 by 8% which is .08 and compare that to 125.

Why was Georgia established?

James Oglethorpe thought that the poor (such as people living in jails) should have better lives. He also believed that it was to crowded in England for so many people, so they could move many people to Georgia. One more reason, is that, if the Indians let them own a lot of land (which they did), they could have more grown items, such as silk. They wouldn't even have to do it themselves, they could just have the colonists do it.
