Answer:

C

Solution

For a complex number written in the form a + bi, a is called the real part of the complex number and b is called the imaginary part. The sum of two complex numbers, a + bi and c + di, is found by adding real parts and imaginary parts, respectively, that is, (a + bi) + (c + di) = (a + c) + (b + d)i. Therefore, the sum of 2 + 3i and 4 + 8i is (2 + 4) + (3 + 8)i = 6 + 11i.

Choice A is incorrect and is the result of disregarding i and adding all parts of the two complex numbers together, 2 + 3 + 4 + 8 = 17. Choice B is incorrect and is the result of adding all parts of the two complex numbers together and multiplying the sum by i. Choice D is incorrect and is the result of multiplying the real parts and imaginary parts of the two complex numbers, (2)(4) = 8 and (3)(8) = 24, instead of adding those parts together.

Luden [163]
Ratio and propoertion

cost/amount is constant
1235/95=x/285
cross multiply or time both sides by (95 times 283)
351975=95x
divide oth sies by 95
3705=x
