Question

Solve the equation. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.-4 = -1.5j + 3+ 32

Answer 1

Given the equation :

-4 = -1.5 j+ 32

combine like terms

-4 - 32 = -1.5 j

-36 = -1.5j

OR can be written

-1.5 j = -36

Divide both sides by -1.5

`j=(-36)/(-1.5)=(36)/(1.5)=(36\cdot10)/(1.5\cdot10)=(360)/(15)=24`

so, the value of j = 24
