Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If the roots are 1 + 5i and 1 - 5i, then you need the factors that result from those roots. They are (x - 1 + 5i) and (x - 1 - 5i). Now what you do with those is FOIL them out. Doing that gives you the following:
(what a mess, huh?)
The good thing is that several of those terms cancel each other out. +5ix cancels out the -5ix; -5i cancels out the 5i; and the 2 -x terms combine to -2x. That leaves you with:

Obviously you're in the section in math that deals with complex (imaginary) numbers so you should know that i-squared is equal to -1. Making that replacement:

a = 1, b = -2, c = 25
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since 2 of the 3 binomials are identical I would start the distribution there.
(1 + 4i)(1 + 4i) = 
I'm sure you have learned in class by now that i-squared is = to -1, so we can make that substitution:
1 + 8i + 16(-1) which simpifies to
1 + 8i - 16 which simplifies further to
-15 + 8i. Now we need to FOIL in the last binomial:
(-15 + 8i)(-4 + 4i) = 
Combine like terms to get

Again make the substitution of i-squared = -1:
60 - 92i + 32(-1) which simplifies to
60 - 92i - 32 which simpifies, finally, to a solution of:
28 - 92i
