Answer:

Plot the point (3, -5)

Explanation:

Recall that the general number a+bi can be plotted on a complex plane with the x axis as the real part and the y axis as the imaginary part.

In short,

a = real part = x

b = imaginary part = y

So (a,b) = (x,y)

In this case, a = 3 and b = -5 which is how I got (3, -5).

It might help to rewrite 3 - 5i into 3 + (-5)i
