y=±i(105)
y=±i(105)
Combine i and 105.
y=±i105
y=±i105
The complete solution is the result of both the positive and negative portions of the solution.
First, use the positive value of the ± to find the first solution.
y=i105
Next, use the negative value of the ± to find the second solution.
y=-i105
The complete solution is the result of both the positive and negative portions of the solution.
y=i105,-i105
y=i105,-i105
y=i105,-i105
