Evaluate 2i−18i%0D%0A2%0D%0A𝑖%0D%0A−%0D%0A18%0D%0A𝑖%0D%0A. Provide your answer in the form of a+bi

Answer 1

To evaluate \( \frac{2i - 18i}{2} \), we first simplify the expression in the numerator.

1. Combine the terms in the numerator:

   \[ 2i - 18i = -16i \]

2. Now, substitute that back into the fraction:

   \[ \frac{-16i}{2} \]

3. Divide the numerator by the denominator:

   \[ -16i \div 2 = -8i \]

Now, we express \(-8i\) in the form \(a + bi\). Here, \(a = 0\) and \(b = -8\).

Thus, the final answer is

\[ \boxed{0 - 8i} \]
