to solve this we need to multiply and divide by the complex conjugates, so:


(5)/(7-i)\cdot(7+i)/(7+i)

and now we solve it


(5\cdot(7+i))/(7\cdot7+7i-7i-i\cdot i)
\begin{gathered} (35+5i)/(49+1) \\ (35)/(50)+(5)/(50)i \end{gathered}

So the answer is:


\begin{gathered} (7)/(10)+(1)/(10)i \\ or\text{ } \\ 0.7+0.1i \end{gathered}
