√-1 ________ (2 - 4i) - (5 +3i) Simplify the expression
\[\sqrt{-1}\over (2-4i)(5+3i)\]Is the expression?
yes it is
Or is it\[\sqrt{-1}\over (2-4i) - (5+3i)\]
yeah that is correct
If it is the first\[7-11i \over 340\]If it is the second:\[-(3i+7)\over 58\]
how did you get 58? I got 40
I got 9-49i^2 or that would be 9 -(49)(-1)=9+49=58 but you got me worried let me recheck.
lol ok
(-3-7i)(-3+7i)=9 -49 i^2=9+49=58
Oh ok, yeah I looked back at my work and I added wrong. so it would be -7 - 3i / 58
don't forget\[i ^{2}=-1\]
So wait.. is it -7 - 3i /58, because before I put i as -1, it was -3i + 7i^2
I changed the two signs by placing the sign to the left and on the viniculum
Yes, -3i-7 3i+7 ------- or - ----- 58 58 note the minus sign to the left (middle) of the 2nd term.
Thank you very much :)
