Question

What are the real numbers of x and y that makes the equation true?(i = root -1)
2 + 3i = x + yi
Can you explain the answer? I already know the answer, but I don't know how you can get it.

Answer 1

isnt the answer x=2 and y =3 ?
just to make sure

Answer 2

Yup.

Answer 3

well when i look at this it seems pretty straight forward like:
a + bi = x + yi

a = x
bi = yi => b =y

Answer 4

i is treated somewhat like a variable x
but when you get i^2 it becomes -1

Answer 5

ohhh thank you :)
