Answer:

\frac{3}{13} + \frac{2i}{13}

Step-by-step explanation:

The multiplicative inverse of a complex number y  is the complex number z such that (y)(z) = 1

So for this problem we need to find a number z such that

(3 - 2i) ( z ) = 1

If we take z = \frac{1}{3-2i}

We have that

(3- 2i)\frac{1}{3-2i} = 1 would be the multiplicative inverse of 3 - 2i

But remember that 2i = √-2 so we can rationalize the denominator of this complex number

\frac{1}{3-2i } (\frac{3+2i}{3+2i } )=\frac{3+2i}{9-(4i^{2} )} =\frac{3+2i}{9-4(-1)} =\frac{3+2i}{13}

Thus, the multiplicative inverse would be \frac{3}{13} + \frac{2i}{13}

The problem asks us to verify this by multiplying both numbers to see that the answer is 1:

Let's multiplicate this number by 3 - 2i to confirm:

(3-2i)(\frac{3+2i}{13}) = \frac{9-4i^{2} }{13}  =\frac{9-4(-1)}{13}= \frac{9+4}{13} = \frac{13}{13}= 1

Thus, the number we found is indeed the multiplicative inverse of  3 - 2i
