Simplify the expression to the a + bi form: (-7 + 5i)(5 + 3i)
Added by John W.
Step 1
First, we can use the distributive property to multiply the real parts and the imaginary parts separately: (-7+5i) (5 + 3i) = -7(5) + (-7)(3i) + 5i(5) + 5i(3i) Simplifying each term: = -35 - 21i + 25i + 15i^2 Show more…
