Solve: √2z+3 = - z. If there are multiple solutions, list them separated by a comma, e.g., 1, 2. If there is no solution,

enter Ø.

Answer:

If you mean √2z + 3 = -z, the answer is ∅

If you mean √2 z + 3 = -z

√2 z + 3 = -z

√2 z = -z - 3

√2 z + z = - 3

z(√2 + 1) = -3

z = -3 / (√2 + 1)

z = -3 (√2 - 1)

Answer:

Explanation:


√(2z) + 3 = -z


√(2z) = -z - 3

Square both sides , we have

2z =
(-z-3)^(2)

2z =
z^(2) + 6z + 9

re arranging the equation , we have


z^(2) + 6z - 2z + 9 = 0


z^(2) + 4z + 9 = 0

This will give a complex roots , solving by quadratic formula

z = -2 +
√(5)i , -2 -
√(5)i
