¿Cuál es el valor de i51

?

A.

−1

B.

−i

C.

1

D.

i

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the value of i^51

We know that

i^1 = i

i^2 = -1

i^3 = -i

i^4 = 1

and it repeats with a period of 4, so i^5 = i^(1 + 4) = i^1= i, and so on.

so we can write it as:

x + n*4 = 51

where n is an integer number, and x is a number between 1 and 4.

clearly  n must be an odd number, so we can try:

if x = 1.

1 + n*4 = 51

n*4 = 50

n = 50/4 = 12.5

This is not the solution for x, because n must be an integer number.

Now suppose x = 3.

3 + 4*n = 51

4*n = 48

n = 48/4 = 12

Then x is equal to 3, this means that:

i^51 = i^3*i^4*12 = i^3 = -i

The correct option is B

the above table 1 will calculate the population size (n) after a certain length of time (t). all you need to do is plug in the initial population number (no), the growth rate (r) and the length of time (t). the constant (e) is already entered into the equation. it stands for the base of the natural logarithms (approximately 2.71828). growth rate (r) and time (t) must be expressed in the same unit of time, such as years, days, hours or minutes. for humans, population growth rate is based on one year. if a population of people grew from 1000 to 1040 in one year, then the percent increase or annual growth rate is 40/1000 x 100 = 4 percent.
