What is the additive inverse of the complex number negative 8 plus 3 i ?

The additive inverse of a number is the number that adds to it to make zero, so change the signs of both parts. The additive inverse of −8 + 3i is 8 − 3i, since (−8 + 3i) + (8 − 3i) = 0. Therefore, the correct choice is 8 minus 3i.
