Simplify the following quotient of complex numbers into the form a + bi. -9 + 8i/1

Parth (parthkohli):

Are you sure that's -9 + 8i/1? lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:)

Parth (parthkohli):

Because that'd just be what you already have.

\[\rm {blah \over 1}\]is always\[\rm blah\]

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

unless...

hartnn (hartnn):

unless the question is incomplete

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Typo.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Simplify the following quotient of complex numbers into the form a + bi. -9 + 8i/1 + 2i

hartnn (hartnn):

thought so

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am just busy with math homework and didn't realize it until I pulled the page back up. Sorry.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Anyone know how to help?

hartnn (hartnn):

yes, multiply and divide by conjugate of denominator, know what is conjugate ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-9 + 8i/ 1 + 2i /-9 + 16i This is the first step I had.

hartnn (hartnn):

conjugate of 1+2i = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3i

hartnn (hartnn):

conjugate of 1+2i is 1-2i
