You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Let e= a+bi, and e(complememt) = a-bi\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "What you have is
\n" ); document.write( "e + 6ē = 7
\n" ); document.write( "a+bi + 6(a-bi) = 7 +0i
\n" ); document.write( "a+bi +6a -6bi = 7 + 0i
\n" ); document.write( "7a -5bi = 6 + 0i\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Therefore, 7a= 6, so a=6/7
\n" ); document.write( "and -5b= 0, so b=0\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Therefore, e=6/7 +0i\r
