Step-by-Step Analysis
To simplify the given complex expression, we interpret the task as evaluating (3+4i) / (2 - i).
First, multiply numerator and denominator by the complex conjugate of the denominator (2 + i) to rationalize:
(3+4i)/(2 - i) * (2 + i)/(2 + i) = ( (3+4i)(2+i) ......Login to view full explanationLog in for full answers
