Given that z = a + bj, find Re(z/z*) and Im(z/z*).

By definition z* = a - bj. We can write z/z* = ((a+bj)/(a-bj))*(a+bj)/(a+bj). We calculate this to be z/z* = (a^2-b^2)/(a^2+b^2) + j(2ab)/(a^2+b^2). Therefore, Re(z/z*) = (a^2-b^2)/(a^2+b^2). Im(z/z*) = (2ab...

z = 50 / (3+4i). What is z in a+bi form?

Multiply by complex conjugate z = 50 / (3+4i) * (3-4i) / (3-4i) Rationalise z = 50 ( 3 - 4i) / 25 = 6 - 8i.

How to solve the inequality 1 - 2(x - 3) > 4x

Firstly you should expand the brackets in this situation in order to collect the like terms, so get all the x's on one side and all the constants on the other side of the inequality. Expanding the bracket yo...
