Solution for (-2-i)(4+i)=0 equation:


Simplifying
(-2 + -1i)(4 + i) = 0

Multiply (-2 + -1i) * (4 + i)
(-2(4 + i) + -1i * (4 + i)) = 0
((4 * -2 + i * -2) + -1i * (4 + i)) = 0
((-8 + -2i) + -1i * (4 + i)) = 0
(-8 + -2i + (4 * -1i + i * -1i)) = 0
(-8 + -2i + (-4i + -1i2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -2i + -4i = -6i
(-8 + -6i + -1i2) = 0

Solving
-8 + -6i + -1i2 = 0

Solving for variable 'i'.

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), '-1'.
-1(8 + 6i + i2) = 0
