Respuesta :

20 - 4i is the correct answer!

Answer:

Option 3rd is correct

[tex]20-4i[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression:

[tex](-2-2i)(-4+6i)[/tex]

Multiply the first term of the first expression to the second expression and second term of the first expression to the second expression

we have;

[tex]-2(-4+6i)-2i(-4+6i)[/tex]

Using distributive property: [tex]a \cdot (b+c) =a\cdot b + a\cdot c[/tex]

Also, we know: [tex]i^2 = -1[/tex]

then;

[tex]8-12i+8i-12i^2[/tex]

⇒[tex]8-12i+8i+12[/tex]

Combine like terms;

⇒[tex]20-4i[/tex]

Therefore, the simplified given expression is, [tex]20-4i[/tex]
