Quantitative Aptitude Question on complex numbers
For i = −1, the sum of ($$-3 + 4i$$) +$$($$-4-3i) is equal to
A
−1−i
B
−1+i
C
−7+i
D
−7−i
Answer
−7+i
Explanation
Solution
To find the sum of the complex numbers ($$-3 +$$4$$i$$) and($$-4-3i)we can add the real parts and the imaginary parts separately
Real parts:
⇒−3+(−4)=−7
Imaginary parts:
⇒4i+(−3i)=1i or simply i
The sum is:−7+i
So the correct option is (C):−7+i
