Question

.(1 point)

Answer 1

To simplify \((-8 - 7i) + (7 + 6i)\), you need to combine the real parts and the imaginary parts separately.

1. Combine the real parts: \(-8 + 7 = -1\)

2. Combine the imaginary parts: \(-7i + 6i = -1i\) or simply \(-i\)

Putting it all together, the simplified expression is: \[ -1 - i \]
