Answer: Last option

inverse property

Step-by-step explanation:

The property of the inverse sum says that if we have a number b and we add it with its negative -b then

[tex]b - b = 0[/tex]

In this case we have that:

[tex]x = a + bi[/tex]

and

[tex]y = -b - bi[/tex]

Note that

[tex]y = -x[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]x + y = x -x= a + bi - a - bi = 0[/tex]

the answer is the last option
