To simplify the expression \((7 - \sqrt{64}) + (6 + 3i)\), let's break it down step by step.
-
Calculate the square root: \(\sqrt{64} = 8\)
-
Substitute back into the expression: \[ (7 - 8) + (6 + 3i) \]
-
Simplify further: \[ -1 + (6 + 3i) = -1 + 6 + 3i = 5 + 3i \]
The simplified expression is \(5 + 3i\).
However, checking against the provided options:
- 13 - 5i
- 8i
- 1 - 5i
- 13 + 11i
None of the options match \(5 + 3i\). It's possible that the original expression may not have been transcribed or simplified correctly. Please double-check if the expression to be simplified was written correctly.
