Question
- 8i - 9i·6i
- (-4i)³·2i
- (2i)⁵·(i√6)²
Response
Let's solve problem 14: \((-4i)^3 \cdot 2i\)
Step 1: Simplify \((-4i)^3\)
We use the power of a product rule \((ab)^n = a^n b^n\) and the property \(i^2=-1\), \(i^3 = i^2 \cdot i=-i\).
\[
$$\begin{align*}
(-4i)^3&=(-4)^3 \cdot i^3\\
&=-64 \cdot (-i)\\
&= 64i
\end{align*}$$
\]
Step 2: Multiply by \(2i\)
Now we multiply the result from step 1 by \(2i\):
\[
$$\begin{align*}
64i \cdot 2i&= 128i^2\\
&= 128 \cdot (-1)\\
&=-128
\end{align*}$$
\]
