Question

I need help on this question. I will send you my answer and correct me and explain what I have done wrong.

Answer 1

From the question we are given the equation

`7-i-4(I-6)=5(4-i)-2(1-i)`

Assuming the I represents i then we have

`7-i-4(i-6)=5(4-i)-2(1-i)`

now we are to solve for i by expanding the bracket

This gives

`7-i-4i+24=20-5i-2+2i`

Next we are to collect like terms

`\begin{gathered} 7+24-i-4i=20-2-5i+2i \\ 31-5i=18-3i \\ -5i+3i=18-31 \\ -2i=-13 \end{gathered}`

Finally we have

`\begin{gathered} i=(-13)/(-2) \\ i=(13)/(2) \end{gathered}`

Therefore, the value for i is

`i=(13)/(2)`
