IN ORDER TO GET FULL CREDIT FOR EACH PROBLEM, PLEASE SHOW ALL WORK AND WRITE EVERYTHING OUT CORRECTLY USING THE LANGUAGE OF MATH.
The quiz is worth 100 points. Each problem is worth 5 points.
For #1 through #6, please put the answer in a + bi form.
1. Add (3 – 2i) + (-4 – 4i)
2. Subtract (3 - 2i) - (-4 - 4i)
5. Square (1 – i)2
To do #6, below, I would use the following table:

FOR EXAMPLE:
Let’s simplify i10. We divide whatever the exponent is by 4.
So, doing so, we have
2
8
2
We get a remainder of 2, so the answer is -1. So, we can say that i10 is -1.
#6 (a) Simplify i715
(b) Simplify (-3i)6
