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.

Any value of y, except when y = -4.9, will make the expression equal to 2.45.
Answer: 60 and 80
Step-by-step explanation: Start off with the highest number, which is 10. The numbers between 49 and 95 that can be divided by 10 are 50, 60, 70, 80, and 90. Next, figure out what can be divided by 5. All of them can. Next, find out what numbers can be divided by 4. 50, 70, and 90 can’t because they would end up as a decimals. 60 and 80 can be divided by 4, 5, and 10.
It is $4.68. You do $58.45 times 0.08, which is $4.676, but you round that to $4.68.
