1 answer

To solve the expression (j + 2) - 2(3 - 9j), we can simplify it step by step.

First, we distribute the 2 to both terms inside the parentheses: -2(3 - 9j) becomes -6 + 18j.

Now the expression becomes (j + 2) - 6 + 18j.

Next, we can combine like terms. The j terms can be combined: j + 18j is equal to 19j.

The constants can also be combined: -6 + 2 is equal to -4.

Therefore, the simplified expression is 19j - 4.

So the correct response is 19j - 4.
