Answer:
- 58 +106i
- -29 -53i
- -8 -41i
- -15 +19i
Explanation:
For the purpose of selecting the appropriate tile, it is only necessary to figure the real part of the sum or product.
We notice that the second product (-xy) is -1/2 times the first product (2xy). This can let you find the answers on that basis alone. The only tiles with a (-1) : (2) relationship are (-29 -53i) : (58 +106i).
__
The sum -5x +y has a real part of -5(3) +7 = -8.
The sum 2x -3y has a real part of 2(3) -3(7) = 6 -21 = -15.
Hence the sequence of answers needed on the right side is as shown above.

Additional comment
You know that arithmetic operations with complex numbers (multiplication and addition) are identical to those operations performed on any polynomials. That is, "i" can be treated as a variable. The simplification comes at the end, where any instances of i² can be replaced by -1.
xy = (3 +8i)(7 -i) = 3·7 -3·i +8·7·i -8·i·i = 21 +53i -8i²
= (21 +8) +53i . . . . replaced i² with -1, so -8i² = +8
= 29 +53i
