l y l= 4 Whats the solution?

myininaya (myininaya):

|-4|=4 |4|=4

myininaya (myininaya):

so you have two answers y=-4 or y=4

OpenStudy (zarkon):

\[y=a\pm\sqrt{16-a^2}\cdot i\] for \[-4\le a\le 4\] :)

myininaya (myininaya):

such a doctor thing to say

OpenStudy (zarkon):

lol

myininaya (myininaya):

so what i meant earlier is that you have two real solutions

OpenStudy (zarkon):

myininaya answer is the one you are looking for....mine is a little overkill. :)

myininaya (myininaya):

zarkon provides you with complex solutions

myininaya (myininaya):

i mean real numbers are complex but not all complex numbers are real so what i mean by he provided you with complex numbers is that he also provided you with the real solutions and the imaginary

OpenStudy (zarkon):

lol

myininaya (myininaya):

lol

OpenStudy (zarkon):
