Solution

To find the multiplicative inverse of a complex number (0, -1), we need to find another complex number that, when multiplied by (0, -1), gives us the result of (1, 0).

Let's assume the multiplicative inverse is (a, b). We can write the equation as:

(0, -1) * (a, b) = (1, 0)

To solve this equation, we can use the distributive property of complex numbers:

(0 * a - (-1) * b, 0 * b + (-1) * a) = (1, 0)

Simplifying further, we get:

(b, -a) = (1, 0)

From this equation, we can see that b = 1 and -a = 0. Solving for a, we find that a = 0.

Therefore, the multiplicative inverse of (0, -1) is (0, 1).

So, the correct answer is B. (0, 1).
