Answer: D. 170
Step-by-step explanation:
Larger number is 32 because if u take 48 minus 16 u get your anwser
In the expression, the real number a equals 12 and the real number b equals -16.
<h3>How to explain the information?</h3>
It should be noted that the expression given is:
= (4 - 2i)²
Therefore, we need to expand the expression. This will be:
= (4 - 2i)(4 - 2i)
= 16 -8i -8i + 4i²
= 16 -16i +4i²
Substitute -1 for i²
= 16 - 16i + 4(-1)
= 16 - 16i - 4
= 12 - 16i
Therefore, the value of the expression is 12 - 16i.

Evaluate the expression ( 4 − 2 i )² and write the result in the form a + b i.
Answer:
a_n = 2^(n - 1) 3^(3 - n)
Step-by-step explanation:
9,6,4,8/3,…
a1 = 3^2
a2 = 3 * 2
a3 = 2^2
As we can see, the 3 ^x is decreasing and the 2^ y is increasing
We need to play with the exponent in terms of n
Lets look at the exponent for the base of 2
a1 = 3^2 2^0
a2 = 3^1 2^1
a3 = 3^ 0 2^2
an = 3^ 2^(n-1)
I picked n-1 because that is where it starts 0
n = 1 (1-1) =0
n=2 (2-1) =1
n=3 (3-1) =2
Now we need to figure out the exponent for the 3 base
I will pick (3-n)
n =1 (3-1) =2
n =2 (3-2) =1
n=3 (3-3) =0
