Original question and givens

Represent a complex number a+b*i by the ordered integer pair [a,b], with i²=−1. Keep the real component first and the imaginary coefficient second; graph appearance supplies no missing values. No complex division or polar form is used here. left=[6, 1], right=[1, 27]. Give (left,right,[left real−right real,left imaginary coefficient−right imaginary coefficient]).

  • G001 — Represent a complex number a+b*i by the ordered integer pair [a,b], with i²=−1. Keep the real component first and the imaginary coefficient second; graph appearance supplies no missing values. No complex division or polar form is used here. left=[6, 1], right=[1, 27]. Give (left,right,[left real−right real,left imaginary coefficient−right imaginary coefficient]).

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

Step-by-step derivation

S001 · implies

Before

source roles = [qf-str22-complex-subtraction, complex-subtraction]

After

derived = [[left, right, result]]

Conditions: none

Use this bank exact ordered tuple and hyphenated operation.Rational outputs reduce with positive denominators and OMIT/1 for integers,unlike the preceding legacy bank.Do not change original bilingual snapshots or meaning.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: STR22_exact_interface_and_source_ORDERED_tuple_roles · Uses: G001

S002 · calculation

Before

Complex ORIGINAL sub coordinate0 := sub(6, 1)

After

Complex ORIGINAL sub coordinate0 = 5

Conditions: none

Use the ORIGINAL operands exactly,without floating point.Only the declared SOURCE rational operations use their profile;additional integer teaching algebra adds no new input-domain restriction.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S001

S003 · calculation

Before

Complex ORIGINAL sub coordinate1 := sub(1, 27)

After

Complex ORIGINAL sub coordinate1 = -26

Conditions: none

Use the ORIGINAL operands exactly,without floating point.Only the declared SOURCE rational operations use their profile;additional integer teaching algebra adds no new input-domain restriction.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S002

S004 · implies

Before

source roles = [complex-subtraction, [6, 1], [1, 27]]

After

derived = [[5, -26]]

Conditions: none

From(a+bi)±(c+di)=(a±c)+(b±d)i,combine matching components.Real stays first;subtraction is left-right,not an absolute difference.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: Complex_ordered_real_imaginary_components_and_operand_direction · Uses: G001, S003

Reverse checks

  • S004 · premise_and_result_audit — Reverse-check every ORIGINAL coordinate/table entry/alignment and strict premise,not just the final answer.Keep finite candidates,general reasoning,formal proof and publication responsibilities distinct.
  • S003 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute Complex ORIGINAL sub coordinate1 with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
  • S002 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute Complex ORIGINAL sub coordinate0 with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
  • S001 · premise_and_result_audit — Reverse-check every ORIGINAL coordinate/table entry/alignment and strict premise,not just the final answer.Keep finite candidates,general reasoning,formal proof and publication responsibilities distinct.

Result

([6, 1], [1, 27], [5, -26])

The full substitutions and premise checks give the original answer; source identity,format and status are unchanged.
