• Choice J

    Multiply the complex numbers using FOIL:

    (9i2)(35i)(9i - 2)(3 - 5i)

    =(9i)(3)+(9i)(5i)+(2)(3)+(2)(5i)= (9i)(3) + (9i)(-5i) + (-2)(3) + (-2)(-5i)

    =27i45i26+10i= 27i - 45i^2 - 6 + 10i

    Since i2=1i^2 = -1:

    =27i45(1)6+10i= 27i - 45(-1) - 6 + 10i

    =27i+456+10i= 27i + 45 - 6 + 10i

    =39+37i= 39 + 37i
