Simplify the given expression.. (-3 + 2i) • (2 + i) . a. -8 + i. b. -6 + 3i. c. -3 + 4i. d. -1 + 2i.

We are given the expression;

 (-3 + 2i) • (2 + i) 

To solve, we need to follow the rule for the basic operations which is PEMDAS.

We first distribute the terms in the parentheses.
 (-3 + 2i) • (2 + i) = -6-3i + 4i - 2 = -8 + i

Therefore, the correct answer is option A.

Hello,

(-3+2i)(2+i)=-6+4i-3i-2=-8+i

Answer A
