Question

(3 + 4i) + (5 − 2i) (2 points) −2 + 6i 2 − 2i 7 + 3i 8 + 2i

Answer 1

Answer: 8 + 2i

Explanation:

1) Rewrite the two complex numbers in standard form: (3 + 4i) + (5 − 2i) = 3 + 5 + 4i - 2i = 3 + 5 + 2i

2) Add the real parts and the imaginary parts separately: Real parts: 3 + 5 = 8 Imaginary parts: 2i + (-2i) = 0

3) Put the results in standard form: 8 + 0i = 8 + 0i = 8 + 0i = 8 + 0i = 8 + 0i = 8 + 2i

Answer 2

8+2i

Explanation:

Combine like terms

3+5=8

4i-2i=2i
