Work Step by Step
$\bf{\text{Solution Outline:}}$
To simplify the given expression, $
(2-3i)+(6+8i)
,$ remove the grouping symbols. Then combine the real parts and the imaginary parts.
$\bf{\text{Solution Details:}}$
Removing the grouping symbols, the given expression is equivalent to
\begin{array}{l}\require{cancel}
2-3i+6+8i
.\end{array}
Combining the real parts and the imaginary parts results to
\begin{array}{l}\require{cancel}
(2+6)+(-3i+8i)
\\\\=
8+5i
.\end{array}
