In Exercises 1–3, perform the indicated operations and write the result in standard form. 5 / 2−i

검증된 단계별 안내
1
Identify the given expression: \( \frac{5}{2 - i} \). The goal is to write this expression in standard form, which means expressing it as \( a + bi \), where \( a \) and \( b \) are real numbers.
To eliminate the imaginary unit \( i \) from the denominator, multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the complex conjugate of the denominator. The complex conjugate of \( 2 - i \) is \( 2 + i \). So multiply by \( \frac{2 + i}{2 + i} \).
Perform the multiplication in the numerator: \( 5 \times (2 + i) = 10 + 5i \).
Perform the multiplication in the denominator using the difference of squares formula: \( (2 - i)(2 + i) = 2^2 - (i)^2 = 4 - (-1) = 4 + 1 = 5 \).
Now, write the expression as \( \frac{10 + 5i}{5} \). Then, separate the real and imaginary parts by dividing both terms in the numerator by 5: \( \frac{10}{5} + \frac{5i}{5} = 2 + i \), which is the standard form.

Complex Numbers and Standard Form

Complex numbers are expressed in the form a + bi, where a is the real part and b is the imaginary part. Writing a complex number in standard form means expressing it explicitly as a sum of its real and imaginary components.

Complex Conjugate

The complex conjugate of a number a + bi is a - bi. Multiplying by the conjugate removes the imaginary part from the denominator, making it a real number, which is essential for simplifying complex fractions.
