Answer:

[tex]-\dfrac{2}{17} + \dfrac{9}{17}i[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] (2 + i) \div (1 - 4i) = [/tex]

[tex] = \dfrac{2 + i}{1 - 4i} [/tex]

[tex] = \dfrac{2 + i}{1 - 4i} \times \dfrac{1 + 4i}{1 + 4i} [/tex]

[tex] = \dfrac{(2 + i)(1 + 4i)}{(1 - 4i)(1 + 4i)} [/tex]

[tex] = \dfrac{2 + 8i + i + 4i^2}{1 + 16} [/tex]

[tex] = \dfrac{2 + 9i - 4}{17} [/tex]

[tex] = \dfrac{-2 + 9i}{17} [/tex]

[tex]= -\dfrac{2}{17} + \dfrac{9}{17}i[/tex]
