Complex numbers: Solve for 'm' and 'n' when

OpenStudy (calculator):

\[z_{1}=2-3i~~~~,z_{2}=5+4i\] For equation \[mz_{1}+nz_{2}=11+18i\]

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

x+y=11, w+z=18

OpenStudy (calculator):

huh?

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

wait, are m and n complex?

OpenStudy (calculator):

i dont know

OpenStudy (calculator):

i think its a constant

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

are they integers? or you don't know?

OpenStudy (calculator):

my teacher just gave me this and tell me to solve

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

Give me a few minutes, I'll get it.

OpenStudy (calculator):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[z_{1}=2-3i~,z_{2}=5+4i\] \[mz_{1}+nz_{2}=11+18i\] \[m(2-3i)+n(5+4i)=11+8i\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[2m+5n=8\] \[-3m+4n=11\] etc

OpenStudy (calculator):

you mean 2m+5n=11 −3m+4n=8 ?

OpenStudy (calculator):

the real part equate with real number?

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

Yes. Satellite is correct.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i messed up but yes, what you wrote

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i made a typo, should have been \[m(2-3i)+n(5+4i)=11+18i\]

OpenStudy (calculator):

ok, i got it, thanks!!!!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so \[2m+5n=11\] \[-3m+4n=18\] my mistake
