Just to clarify, is that (7-7i) / (5+4i) or 7 - (7i / 5) + 4i ?

He's talking about imaginary numbers. 5+3i is a vector, right?

D.


multiply by (5-4i)/(5-4i), use the FOIL method and then simplify to end up with D

Hrm, can you explain how you got that? I got a, but that was by cheating

when multiplying by that I got

(35+7i-28i^2)/(25-16i^2)
