HELP ASAP NEED THIS DONE TONIGHT BEFORE MIDNIGHT


Sagot :

Answer:

  j = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Eliminate parentheses:

  -24 -3j = -16 +5j

Add 3j+16

  -8 = 8j

Divide by the coefficient of j.

  -1 = j

[tex]\rm⇢ \: \: - 3(8 + j) = - 16 + 5j[/tex]

[tex]\rm⇢ \: \: - 24 - 3j = - 16 + 5j[/tex]

[tex]\rm⇢ \: \: 5j + 3j = - 24 + 16[/tex]

[tex]\rm⇢ \: \: 8j = - 8[/tex]

[tex]\rm⇢ \: \: j = - 1[/tex]
