SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on solving the complex equation az - b*conj(z) + c = 0, where a, b, and c are complex constants. The user derived a second equation by taking the conjugate, resulting in a system of two equations. After manipulating these equations, the user concluded that z can be expressed as z = -\frac {a+b}{a^2-b^2} * c. The discussion also highlights the importance of conjugating the constants when taking the conjugate of the entire equation.

Homework Statement



1) consider

[tex]az - b*conj(z) + c = 0[/tex]

where a,b,c are complex unknown constans

express z in terms of a,b,c

Homework Equations


The Attempt at a Solution

ok so i took the conjugate of the original equation to get a second equation:

[tex]a*conj(z) - b*z + c = 0[/tex]

so my two equations are

1) [tex]az - b*conj(z) + c = 0[/tex]

2) [tex]a*conj(z) - b*z + c = 0[/tex]

in order to get rid of the conj(z) i multiply the top by a and bottom by b

1) [tex]a^2z - ab*conj(z) + ac = 0[/tex]

2) [tex]ab*conj(z) - b^2z + bc = 0[/tex]

i simply add and simplify and my answer is

[tex]z = -\frac {a+b}{a^2-b^2} * c[/tex]

does this seem correct?

If the problem states that a,b,c are complex constants, then when you conjugate the entire equation, you need to conjugate these constants as well.
 
ok, woul the final answer just be my answer with conjugate signs above all the constants?
