Check my answers?? Medal?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

o its not correct

OpenStudy (ams98):

ahh okay, could you explain it too me?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

check ur multiplication it is wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(a+b)(c+d) = a(c+d) +b (c+d ) = ac+ad +bc +bd

OpenStudy (anonymous):

similarly (-5 +3i)(1-2i)= -5 +10i +3i -6i^2 = -5 +13i +6 = 1+13i

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

using the rule matricked posted, we know that (-5+3i)(1-2i) turns into -5(1-2i) + 3i(1-2i) from here distribute and remember that i^2 = -1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but one more thing here i^2 = -1 as i deontes complex root of unity

OpenStudy (ams98):

so you distribute? okay that makes better sense i got it.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

you didn't distribute that negative fully through

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

try it again

OpenStudy (ams98):

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
