Question

Solve for ż in the following equation: 1 - iz=-1 +iz (where i? = -1). Simplify your answer as much as possible.​

Answer 1

z = -i

Explanation:

1 - iz=-1 +iz

Add iz to each side

1 - iz+iz=-1 +iz+iz

1 = -1 +2iz

Add 1 to each side

1+1 = -1+1 +2iz

2 = 2iz

Divide by 2

2/2 = 2iz/2

1 =iz

Divide by i

1/i = iz/i

1/i =z

Multiply the left by i/i

i/i^2 = z

i/-1 =z

-i =z
