Question 3

Solve for x and y:


5  2 j 4  j   x  yj (6) [6]
3 j
Method 1
Cross multiplication gives:
 5  2 j  4  j    x  yj  3  j 
 20  5 j  8 j  2 j 2  3 x  xj  3 yj  yj 2
20  3 j  2(1)  3 x  xj  3 yj  y
22  3 j   3x  y   j  x  3 y 

Comparing real and imaginary parts give:


3x  y  22 (1)
x  3y  3 (2)
Solve equations (1) and (2) simultaneously
(1)  3 : 9 x  3 y  66 (eq3)
(2)  (3) : 10 x  69
x  6.9
Substitute in (1): y  (6.9)3 - 22
 1.3
