Simplify the following
`(21)/(14i)`

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

The correct Answer is:
To simplify the expression \(\frac{21}{14i}\), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Multiply by \(\frac{i}{i}\) To eliminate the imaginary unit \(i\) from the denominator, we multiply both the numerator and the denominator by \(i\): \[ \frac{21}{14i} \cdot \frac{i}{i} = \frac{21i}{14i^2} \] ### Step 2: Simplify the denominator Recall that \(i^2 = -1\). Therefore, we can substitute \(-1\) for \(i^2\): \[ \frac{21i}{14(-1)} = \frac{21i}{-14} = -\frac{21i}{14} \] ### Step 3: Simplify the fraction Now, we can simplify the fraction \(-\frac{21i}{14}\) by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 7: \[ -\frac{21i}{14} = -\frac{21 \div 7}{14 \div 7} = -\frac{3i}{2} \] ### Final Answer Thus, the simplified form of \(\frac{21}{14i}\) is: \[ -\frac{3i}{2} \] ---
