how is 5+0i a complex number when it is reduced down to 5?

because 5 itself is a complex number

Every complex number has the form a+bi, where a and b are real numbers. The number 5 is complex because it can be rewritten as 5+0i. The reals are a subset of the complex numbers. So all reals are complex, but not all complex numbers are real.

>> No.9971945

>>9971876
Close! The complex contains the reals, but the reals do not contain the complex.

>> No.9971958

>>9971876
No, 5 is the only number that is both a complex number and a real number

>> No.9971967

if a number can be written as x + iy (x and y real), it is complex.

if y = 0 then the number is real.
if x = 0 then the number is imaginary.

The fuck are you talking about? Every real number is a complex number as well.

do the reals contain the naturals?

>> No.9972603

>>9972240
yes, why would you decide a natural number is not real? Makes no fucking sense
