| ① | Multiply $ \dfrac{-4-4i}{7} $ by $ i $ to get $ \dfrac{-4i^2-4i}{7} $. Step 1: Write $ i $ as a fraction by putting $ \color{red}{ 1 } $ in the denominator. Step 2: Multiply numerators and denominators. Step 3: Simplify numerator and denominator. $$ \begin{aligned} \frac{-4-4i}{7} \cdot i & \xlongequal{\text{Step 1}} \frac{-4-4i}{7} \cdot \frac{i}{\color{red}{1}} \xlongequal{\text{Step 2}} \frac{ \left( -4-4i \right) \cdot i }{ 7 \cdot 1 } = \\[1ex] & \xlongequal{\text{Step 3}} \frac{ -4i-4i^2 }{ 7 } = \frac{-4i^2-4i}{7} \end{aligned} $$ |
| ② | $$ -4i^2 = -4 \cdot (-1) = 4 $$ |
