when multiplying two binomials together we use the F.O.I.L. method:

First

Outer

Inner

Last

(7-3i)(2-i)

First: 7 * 2 ..... Outter: 7 * -i .... Inner: -3i * 2 ...... Last: -3i * -i

First: 14 ...... Outter= -7i ..... Inner: -6i .... Last: 3i^2

putting this together we get 14-7i-6i+2i^2

We combine like terms and end up with 2i^2-13i+14
