    Answer:

    – 1 – 5i

    Step-by-step explanation:

    note that i² = – 1

    Given

    (2 – 3i)(1 – i) ← expand using FOIL

    = 2 – 2i – 3i + 3i²

    = 2 – 5i – 3

    = – 1 – 5i

    Answer: -1 – 5i

    Step-by-step explanation: It’s important to understand that we

    can work this problem as if we were multiplying two binomials together.

    In other words, we can use the F.O.I.L. method. First, Outer, Inner, Last.

    The product of the first terms in each complex number is 2.

    The product of the outer terms is -2i.

    The product of the inner terms is -3i.

    The product of the last terms is 3i².

    Next, we combine our like terms. So -2i + -3i = -5i.

    Also, i² is -1 so our last term is just 3(-1) or -3.

    So we have 2 – 5i + (-3) or 2 – 5i – 3 which is -1 – 5i.
