Question
Solve the equation
n1=−i,n2=0
Evaluate
n×1×i×1=n2i2
Multiply the terms
More Steps

Evaluate
n×1×i×1
Rewrite the expression
ni
Use the commutative property to reorder the terms
in
in=n2i2
Simplify
More Steps

Evaluate
n2i2
Evaluate the power
n2(−1)
Multiplying or dividing an odd number of negative terms equals a negative
−n2
in=−n2
Add or subtract both sides
in−(−n2)=0
If a negative sign or a subtraction symbol appears outside parentheses, remove the parentheses and change the sign of every term within the parentheses
in+n2=0
Factor the expression
More Steps

Evaluate
in+n2
Rewrite the expression
ni+n×n
Factor out n from the expression
n(i+n)
n(i+n)=0
When the product of factors equals 0,at least one factor is 0
n=0i+n=0
Solve the equation for n
More Steps

Evaluate
i+n=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
n=0−i
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
n=−i
n=0n=−i
Solution
n1=−i,n2=0
