How would I simplify these expressions? (Pre-Calculus) I know that you are supposed to multiply all of these to do so, but every time I do that, I still get the wrong answer. My textbook says that these are the answers:
19: -15 + 8i
21: 8 + 6i
23: 34
25: 85
Could anyone explain how they got these answers? Mine are way off. Is the book just wrong? In #21, how would 3 times 3 equal 8 in the answer? Am I missing something?

Since you have the answers, I'll just show the steps on how to get there.

============================================================

Problem 19

[tex](1+4i)^2\\\\(1+4i)(1+4i)\\\\1*1 + 1*4i + 4i*1 + 4i*4i\\\\1 + 4i + 4i + 16i^2\\\\1 + 4i + 4i + 16(-1)\\\\1 + 4i + 4i-16\\\\(1-16) + (4i+4i)\\\\(1-16) + (4+4)i\\\\-15 + 8i\\\\[/tex]

Keep in mind that [tex]i = \sqrt{-1}[/tex] by definition. Squaring both sides leads to [tex]i^2 = -1[/tex]

In the second step, I used the idea that x^2 = x*x. Right after that, I used the FOIL rule to expand everything out.

============================================================

Problem 21

We could follow the same idea as problem 19, but I'll use a different approach.

[tex](A+B)^2 = A^2+2AB+B^2\\\\(3+i)^2 = 3^2 + 2*3*i + i^2\\\\(3+i)^2 = 9 + 6i - 1\\\\(3+i)^2 = 8 + 6i\\\\[/tex]

The formula on the first line is the perfect square binomial formula.

============================================================

Problem 23

The FOIL rule can be used if you want, but I'll use the difference of squares rule instead.

[tex](m+n)(m-n) = m^2 - n^2\\\\(3+5i)(3-5i) = (3)^2 - (5i)^2\\\\(3+5i)(3-5i) = 9 - 25i^2\\\\(3+5i)(3-5i) = 9 - 25(-1)\\\\(3+5i)(3-5i) = 9 + 25\\\\(3+5i)(3-5i) = 34\\\\[/tex]

It turns out that multiplying any complex number of the form a+bi with its conjugate a-bi will result in a purely real number (that has no imaginary part). More specifically: [tex](a+bi)(a-bi) = a^2+b^2[/tex]

============================================================

Problem 25

We could use the difference of squares rule again, but I'll show a different approach. This time using the distribution rule. The FOIL rule could also be used if you wanted.

[tex](6+7i)(6-7i)\\\\x(6-7i)\\\\6x-7xi\\\\6(x)-7i(x)\\\\6(6+7i)-7i(6+7i)\\\\6(6)+6(7i)-7i(6)-7i(7i)\\\\36+42i-42i-49i^2\\\\36-49(-1)\\\\36+49\\\\85\\\\[/tex]

I used x = 6+7i and the substitution property to help distribute. Lines 3 and 6 are where distribution is applied.

event?
O Yes, because 0.3525 is in the interval.
O Yes, because the entire interval is greater than 0.25.
O No, because there are values in the interval greater than 0.3525.
O No, because the center of the interval is 0.3525, which is not statistically greater than 0.25.
