Final answer:

To solve (14+8i)-(11-6i), subtract the real parts (14-11) and the imaginary parts (8i-(-6i)) separately to get 3 + 14i.

Combining the real and imaginary results, we get 3 + 14i in the form of a + bi.

Step-by-step explanation:

To perform the operation (14+8i)-(11-6i), we subtract the real and imaginary parts separately. The real parts are 14 and 11, and the imaginary parts are 8i and -6i. Here's the step-by-step subtraction:

  • Subtract the real parts: 14 - 11 = 3.
  • Subtract the imaginary parts: 8i - (-6i) = 8i + 6i = 14i.

Combining the real and imaginary results, we get 3 + 14i in the form of a + bi.
