Calculate |z| if 8z+40z'=25+35i?

We'll write the expression of the module of a complex
number:


|z| = sqrt [(Re z)^2 + (Im
z)^2]


If z has is written
algebraically


z = a + b*i,
then


the real part = Re(z) =
a


and


the imaginary part is
Im(z) = b.


|z| = sqrt(a^2 +
b^2)


The complex number z' is the conjugate of z and it's
expression is z' = a - b*i


Now, we'll re-write the given
expression:


8z+40z'=25+35i


8(a+bi)
+ 40(a-bi) = 25+35i


We'll remove the
brackets:


8a + 8bi + 40a - 40bi =
25+35i


We'll combine like terms from the right
side:


48a - 32bi = 25+35i


The
real part from the left side has to be equal to the real part from the right
side.


48a=25


We'll divide by
48:


a = 25/48


The imaginary
part from the left side has to be equal to the imaginary part from the right
side:


-32b = 35


We'll divide
by -32:


b = -35/32


The module
of the complex number z = 25/48 - 35*i/32 is:


|z| =
sqrt(a^2 + b^2)


|z| = sqrt[(25/48)^2
+  (-35/32)^2]


|z| = sqrt (625/2304 +
1225/1024)


|z| = sqrt (625*4/2304 +
1225*9/1024)


|z| = sqrt
(2500+11025)/9216


|z| = (sqrt 13525) /
96

Comment on the setting and character of "The Fall of the House of Usher."How does setting act as a character?

Excellent observation, as it identifies how the settings of Poe's stories reflect the characters of their protagonists. Whet...
