| ① | Multiply $ \dfrac{4-7i}{2} $ by $ i $ to get $ \dfrac{-7i^2+4i}{2} $. 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. $$ \begin{aligned} \frac{4-7i}{2} \cdot i & \xlongequal{\text{Step 1}} \frac{4-7i}{2} \cdot \frac{i}{\color{red}{1}} \xlongequal{\text{Step 2}} \frac{ \left( 4-7i \right) \cdot i }{ 2 \cdot 1 } = \\[1ex] & \xlongequal{\text{Step 3}} \frac{ 4i-7i^2 }{ 2 } = \frac{-7i^2+4i}{2} \end{aligned} $$ |
| ② | $$ -7i^2 = -7 \cdot (-1) = 7 $$ |
