Question

identify the graph of 4+2i
if someone could explain to me how you decide which way to go on the graph as far as imaginary and real axis

Answer 1

I can't think of any way to explain it here that won't have been presented in your class materials, with pictures even.

Think of 4+2i as the point (4,2) in the x-y plane. Plot it. Done.

The complex number a+bi is plotted just exactly like the point (a,b).

If that's too difficult, man, you have a lot of catching up to do.

Answer 2

I meant youd go up 4 and over 2 looking at graph would be on right side. Was just making sure I was doing it right.

Answer 3

im not sure if you go up 4 and over 2 or up 2 and over 4, this is where i get confused
