Answer:

4+i

Explanation:

A complex number usually took the form a+bi where a and b are real numbers and 'i' represents an imaginary number. For a quadratic equation, the complex roots for the root of a quadratic equation took the form known as complex conjugates. The complex conjugates are formed by changing the sign of the imaginary part.

SO, if a quadratic equation has 4-i as a solution, the other solution must be 4+i.
