Select the correct answer. which complex number does not lie on the line segment plotted on the graph? 3 + i -2i 2 − 4i -2 − 4i

So, let's see... It is easy to notice that for 3 out of the 4 numbers, there is a relationship between the x and the y coordinate of the number; for 3+i, -2i, -2-4i we have that the real part is larger by 2 from the imaginary part. Thus, the points are on the same line in the imaginary plane; they satisfy x=y+2 or Re{z}=Im{z}+2. However, 2-4i does not satisfy this equation since 2 is not equal to -4+2. Hence, this point does not belong to the line that the other 3 points define.

X=y+4 is the answe
