(5-2i)(4+3i)

At first, we multiply 5 by 4


5*4=20

Then multiply 5 by 3i


5*3i=15i

Then multiply -2i by 4


-2i*4=-8i

Then multiply -2i by 3i


-2i*3i=-6i^2

Since i^2 = -1, then we will multiply -6 by -1


-2i*3i=-6i^2=-6*-1=6

Now, we will add the terms


20+15i-8i+6

Then we will add the like terms


20+15i-8i+6=(20+6)+(15i-8i)=26+7i

So the answer is b
