Answer 1

*remember \[i^2= -1\]
and when you distribute, you get \[15i - 10i^2\]

so...?

Answer 2

im still lost :(

Answer 3

Do you know that \[i = \sqrt{-1}\]

Answer 4

yes

Answer 5

is the first step to dist. 5i to 3-2i ?

Answer 6

? so \[i^2 = -1\]
If you distribute the 5i to the numbers inside the ( )

Answer 7

Yes

Answer 8

from 15i-10i^2 i dont know what to do! :(

Answer 9

(5i)(3-2i)
=(5i)*(3-2i)
=5i*3+5i*(-2i)
=15i-10i^2
=15i-10*(-1) <-- i^2=-1
=15i+10
