= \frac{3}{2}

= (- \frac{1}{2} + i \frac{3}{2})^{3}

Simplify

(- \frac{1}{2} + i \frac{3}{2})^{3} : 1

(- \frac{1}{2} + i \frac{3}{2})^{3}

Multiply

i \frac{3}{2} : \frac{3 i}{2}

i \frac{3}{2}

Multiply fractions:

a \cdot \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \cdot b}{c}

= \frac{3 i}{2}

= (- \frac{1}{2} + \frac{3 i}{2})^{3}

Combine the fractions

- \frac{1}{2} + \frac{3 i}{2} : \frac{- 1 + 3 i}{2}

Apply rule

\frac{a}{c} \pm \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \pm b}{c}

= \frac{- 1 + 3 i}{2}

= (\frac{- 1 + 3 i}{2})^{3}

Apply exponent rule:

(\frac{a}{b})^{c} = \frac{a ^{c}}{b ^{c}}

= \frac{( - 1 + 3 i ) ^{3}}{2 ^{3}}

(- 1 + 3 i)^{3} = 8

(- 1 + 3 i)^{3}

Apply Perfect Cube Formula:

(a + b)^{3} = a^{3} + 3 a^{2} b + 3 a b^{2} + b^{3}

a = - 1, b = 3 i

= (- 1)^{3} + 3 (- 1)^{2} 3 i + 3 (- 1) (3 i)^{2} + (3 i)^{3}

Simplify

(- 1)^{3} + 3 (- 1)^{2} 3 i + 3 (- 1) (3 i)^{2} + (3 i)^{3} : 8

Multiply the numbers:

1 \cdot 3 = 3

= \frac{3}{2}

= 3^{\frac{3}{2}}

= 3^{\frac{3}{2}} i^{3}

3^{\frac{3}{2}} = 33

3^{\frac{3}{2}}

3^{\frac{3}{2}} = 3^{1 + \frac{1}{2}}

Group like terms

= 33 i - 33 i - 1 + 9

Add similar elements:
