Question

2x + i⁹ y(2 + i) = x i⁷ + 10 i¹⁶

Answer 1

2x + i⁹ y(2 + i) = x i⁷ + 10 i¹⁶
2x + (i⁴)² . i . y(2 + i) = x(i²)³ . i + 10 . (i⁴)⁴
2x + (1)² . iy(2 + i) = x(-1)³ . i + 10(1)⁴ ……..[∵ i² = -1, i⁴ = 1]
2x + 2yi + y i² = -xi + 10
2x + 2yi – y + xi = 10
(2x – y) + (x + 2y)i = 10 + 0 . i
Equating real and imaginary parts, we get
2x – y = 10 ……(i)
and x + 2y = 0 ……..(ii)
Equation (i) × 2 + equation (ii) gives, we get
5x = 20
∴ x = 4
Putting x = 4 in (i), we get
2(4) – y = 10
y = 8 – 10
∴ y = -2
∴ x = 4 and y = -2
