Hey there!
[tex]Answer:\boxed{-49-4i}[/tex]
[tex]Explanation:[/tex]
[tex](2 - 61) - (-10 + 4i)[/tex]
First, you need to open the parentheses. Notice how there is a subtraction sign before the second parentheses. You will need to multiply everything in the second parentheses by -1.
[tex]2-61+10-4i[/tex]
[tex]-10 \times -1 = 10[/tex] because when two negative numbers are multiplied, the product will be positive.
Now you need to combine like-terms.
[tex]2-61+10 \ | 4i\\2-61=-59 \text{ and} -59+10=-49[/tex]
You will be left with -49 and 4i. The last step is to add them.
[tex]-49 \text{ and } 4i \rightarrow -49+4i\\-49-4i[/tex]
[tex]\boxed{-49-4i}\text{ is your answer.}[/tex]
Hope this helps!
