Question 1092632: hello i need help solving this algebra question.
find real numbers x and y such that (2x-1) + (3-5y)i = 1 - 7i
Thanks for your help.
also if you can help with this question too 1/6(fraction)(7-2i)+ 2/3(fraction) (5-5i)
1/6(7-2i)+2/3(5-5i)

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
find real numbers x and y such that (2x-1) + (3-5y)i = 1 - 7i
The real parts are equal, and the imaginary parts are equal.

2x-1 = 1
3-5y = -7
======================
Thanks for your help.
also if you can help with this question too 1/6(fraction)(7-2i)+ 2/3(fraction) (5-5i)
1/6(7-2i)+2/3(5-5i)

Not clear.
