Arrange the expression into the a + bi form of a complex number.

5/2 * i + (2/3+6i)
ANSWER

The given complex number written in standard form is

[tex] \frac{2}{3} + \frac{17i}{2} [/tex]

EXPLANATION

A complex number in standard form is written as

[tex]a + bi[/tex]

where
[tex]a[/tex]
and
[tex]b[/tex]
are real numbers.

The given complex number is,

[tex]( \frac{2}{3} + 6i) + \frac{5}{2}i [/tex]

We group like terms to get,

[tex] = \frac{2}{3} + 6i + \frac{5}{2} i[/tex]

We collect LCM for the complex parts to get,

[tex] = \frac{2}{3} + \frac{12i + 5i}{2} [/tex]

This simplifies to,

[tex] =\frac{2}{3} + \frac{17i}{2} [/tex]
