Question

Subtract. (5-2i)-(4-4i) Write your answer as a complex number in standard

Answer 1

To subtract complex numbers, combine the real parts and the imaginary parts separately. In this case, the answer is 1 - 6i.

Step-by-step explanation:

To subtract complex numbers, we combine the real parts and the imaginary parts separately. In this case, we subtract the real parts and the imaginary parts:

(5-2i) - (4-4i) = 5-4 - (2i-(-4i))

Simplifying further:

5-4 - (2i+4i) = 1 - 6i

So, the answer is 1 - 6i.
