if 3i(2+5i)=x +6i, then x=?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

Distribute to get 3i*2 + 3i*5i Then multiply that out. Tell me what you get.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6i+15i^2

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

now use the idea i^2 = -1

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

6i+15i^2 6i+15(-1) 6i - 15 -15 + 6i I'm sure at this point you can see what x is
