Let's simplify the expression \((-\sqrt{49} + 5i) + (8 - \sqrt{4})\).
First, we simplify each part:
- \(-\sqrt{49}\) simplifies to \(-7\).
- \(\sqrt{4}\) simplifies to \(2\).
Now, substituting these values into the expression:
\[ (-7 + 5i) + (8 - 2) \]
Now, simplify the real parts:
\[ -7 + 8 - 2 = -7 + 6 = -1 \]
Thus, combining both parts, we get:
\[ -1 + 5i \]
Now, since none of the provided options match \(-1 + 5i\), let's check the responses. It seems there may be a misunderstanding. Based on the provided options, here’s a final check of each response:
- \(8 + 5i + \sqrt{-53}\)
- \(8 + 14i\)
- \(8 + 10i\)
- \(13 + 9i\)
We realize there may have been an additional error. Let's re-evaluate:
From the beginning, combining the terms:
\[
(-7 + 5i) + (8 - 2) = (-7 + 5i) + 6
\]
\[ = -1 + 5i \]
The original calculations confirm \(-1 + 5i\). Please verify if you've gotten the problem correctly or if there's a missing component. Based on the calculations, none of the listed results is \( -1 + 5i \).
