Algebra.Com's Answer #63437 by stanbon(75887)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Given that “e” is a complex number, solve e + 6ē = 7 (note: ē is the complex conjugate of e) \n" ); document.write( "------------ \n" ); document.write( "If e is a complex number, e = a + bi \n" ); document.write( "If e-bar is its conjugate, e-bar = a-bi \n" ); document.write( "------------------ \n" ); document.write( "Substituting: \n" ); document.write( "a+bi + 6(a-bi) = 7 \n" ); document.write( "7a -5bi =7 + 0i \n" ); document.write( "------- \n" ); document.write( "7a = 7, so a = 1 \n" ); document.write( "-5b = 0, so b = 0 \n" ); document.write( "---------- \n" ); document.write( "So e = 1 + 0i \n" ); document.write( "e = 1 \n" ); document.write( "=============== \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "stan H. \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
