Given z = -1 - i, the expression for [tex]z^3[/tex] is 2 - 2i
The given complex number is z = -1 - i
[tex]z^3[/tex] means to raise z to the power of 3
[tex]z^3=(-1-i)^3[/tex]
Expand and simplify the expression:
[tex]z^3=(-1)^3+3(-1)^2(-i)+3(-1)(-i)^2+(-i)^3\\\\z^3=-1-3i-3i^2-i^3[/tex]
Note that:
[tex]i^2=-1\\\\i^3=-i[/tex]
Substitute these into the resulting expression
[tex]z^3=-1-3i-3(-1)-(-i)\\\\z^3=-1+3-3i+i\\\\z^3=2-2i[/tex]
Therefore, given z = -1 - i, the expression for [tex]z^3[/tex] is 2 - 2i
