MCQ
If $(1 - i)x + (1 + i)y = 1 - 3i,$ then $(x,y) = $
  • $(2, - 1)$
  • B
    $( - 2,\,1)$
  • C
    $( - 2, - 1)$
  • D
    $(2, 1)$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$(2, - 1)$
a
(a) $(1 - i)x + (1 + i)y = 1 - 3i$

$ \Rightarrow $ $(x + y) + i\,( - x + y) = 1 - 3\,i$

Equating real and imaginary parts, we get $x + y = 1$and $ - x + y = - 3$; $\therefore $ $x = 2,y = - 1$.

Thus point is $(2,\, - 1)$.
