The answer is: [A]: He did not apply the distributive property correctly for 4(1 + 3i) .
_____________________________________________
Explanation:
______________________
Note the distributive property of multiplication:
_____________________________
a*(b+c) = ab + ac.
____________________________
As such: 4*(1 + 3i) = (4*1) + (4*3i) = 4 + 12i ;
_____________________________________
Instead, Donte somehow incorrectly calculated:
_____________________________________
4*(1 + 3i) = (4*1) + 3i = 4 + 31; (and did the rest of the problem correctly);
Note: - (8 - 5i) = -8 + 5i (done correctly;
___________________________________
So if Donte did not apply the distributive property correctly for 4*(1+3i)—and incorrect got 4 + 3i (as mentioned above); but did the rest of the problem correctly, he would have got:
_____________________________
4+ 3i - 8 + 5i = -4 + 8i (the incorrect answer as stated in our original problem.

I promise you this is right but it's quite long to explain.
Answer:
i am not so sure but I think its 10x = 33
Hey!
You have to use the Pythagorean Theorem
a² + b² = c²
a = 10
10² = 10 × 10 = 100
b = 11
11² = 11 × 11 = 121
100 + 121 = 221
√221 = 14.9(rounded)
Answer ⇒ 14.9
Hope this helps! :)
