Step-by-step explanation

We must compute the product of two complex numbers:


(6-7i)*(4+6i).

1) We apply the distributive property for the multiplication:


6*4+6*6i-7i*4-7i*6i.

2) Simplifying the expression above, we have:


\begin{gathered} 24-42* i^2+36i-28i, \\ =24-42*(-1)+8i, \\ =66+8i. \end{gathered}

Where we have used that the square of the imaginary unit is -1:


i^2=-1.Answer

The result of the product is:


66+8i
