Simplify the given expression below:

(6 + 2i) − (8 − 3i)

a.) −2 + 5i
b.) −2 − i
c.) 8 + 5i
d.) 8 − 5i

The answer is A. -2+5i.

First you set up the problem like this: (6+2i)-(8-3i)
Then you distribute the (-) into the second parenthesis. After doing that you should have something that looks like this: 6+2i-8+3i
Then you add like terms.
