Answer:
7-i
Step-by-step explanation:
It is asking for the product of the given complex numbers.
Z1Z2 means Z1 times Z2
(1+i)(3-4i)
You can do the whole foil thing here since we are multiplying a pair of binomials. But all you are doing when you do that is multiplying every term in the first ( ) to every term in the second ( ).
1(3)+1(-4i)+i(3)+i(-4i)
Simplify each term. That is, perform the multiplication in each term:
3-4i+3i-4i^2
Combine like terms and also replace i^2 with (-1):
3-1i-4(-1)
Multiplication identity property used:
3-i+4
Combine like terms:
7-i
