Final answer:

To subtract complex numbers, subtract their real parts and their imaginary parts separately.


Step-by-step explanation:

To subtract complex numbers, we subtract their real parts and their imaginary parts separately. In this case, we have (4+6i)-(5-3i).

Subtracting the real parts, we get 4-5 = -1.

Subtracting the imaginary parts, we get 6i-(-3i) = 6i+3i = 9i.

Therefore, (4+6i)-(5-3i) = -1+9i.
