Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Let's first write the expression:

Now we can simplify. Be sure to remember to distribute the "-" to all the numbers in the parentheses. You can picture it like multiply "-1" to all the numbers in the parentheses to make it easier.

Now we combine like terms.

Write the polynomials by decreasing exponents

<h2>Solving Equations with Absolute Expressions</h2><h3>
Answer:</h3>
<u>No Solutions</u>
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
Given:

Rewriting the given equation:

We have to realize that the right side of the equation,
, will always be positive no matter what real values of
(because we're taking the absolute value of the expression) and we are equating it to a <em>negative</em> constant number,
. Something that is always positive will never be negative so there's no value for
that satisfies the solution.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(5i+4) + (4i-3)
5i+4i-3+4
9i - 1
(2+i) - (3+4i)
(2+i) + (-3 - 4i)
-1 -3i
Each part, real numbers and imaginary, are to be taken as separate pieces; add them with and subtract them by each other as you normally would. :)
