You can put this solution on YOUR website!
I get 11-2i.
\n" ); document.write( "foil
\n" ); document.write( "(4 – 3i) (2 + i)
\n" ); document.write( "4*2-3i*2 +4i -3i^2=
\n" ); document.write( "8-6i+4i+3=
\n" ); document.write( "11-2i
\n" ); document.write( "Did you multiply or subtract or add?
\n" ); document.write( "I even tried add, subtract and divide and still don't get your 4-5i
\n" ); document.write( "Maybe you had the signs wrong.
