To simplify the expression \((-4 + 10i) + (5 + 3i)\), you can combine the real parts and the imaginary parts separately.
-
Combine the real parts: \[ -4 + 5 = 1 \]
-
Combine the imaginary parts: \[ 10i + 3i = 13i \]
Now, putting it all together, we get: \[ 1 + 13i \]
Thus, the expression simplifies to: \[ \boxed{1 + 13i} \]
