Question 735764


{{{(-2-2i)-(-5-8i)}}}..first eliminate parentheses; here you just erase them {{{-2-2i}}}, and here {{{-(-5-8i)}}} you have negative sign in front which means all inside parentheses is multiplied by {{{-1}}}:{{{-1*(-5)-(1)*(-8i)=5+8i}}}



{{{-2-2i+5+8i}}}...group like terms together

{{{(-2+5)+(8i-2i)}}}


{{{3+6i}}}....this is your answer
