Would the conjugate of a complex number with 2 as the real part and 7 as the imaginary part be -2-7i or 2-7i

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

just replace the + sign by -

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

the conjugate of a + bi is a - bi

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You have the complex number 2+7i to start with. To get the conjugate you just change the sign in front of the imaginary part.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So 2-7i

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah, and it is not -2-7i because you don't change the sign in front of the real part.

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

yes
