A complex number z is written in the following form:
[tex]z=\text{ }a+bi\text{ = \lparen a,b\rparen}[/tex]where a is the real part and b is the imaginary part of z.
Now, consider the following complex numbers:
[tex]8\text{ -i}[/tex]and
[tex]3\text{ -2i}[/tex]By notation and by definition, in each case, we have that the real part a is respectively:
[tex]a=\text{ 8}[/tex]and
[tex]a=3[/tex]Then, we can conclude that the correct answer is:
Answer:For z= 8-i
[tex]a=\text{ 8}[/tex]For z= 3 - 2i
[tex]a=\text{ 3}[/tex]
