Find the absolute value of z if 3z+i = 2z -i + 5

Given the complex number 3z+i = 2z -i +
5.


We need to find the absolute values for
z.


First, we need to rewrite z as a complex number into the
form z= a+ bi.


==> 3z + i = 2z - i +
5


We will combine like
terms.


==> 3z - 2z + i + i - 5 =
0


==> z +2i - 5 = 0


Now
we will isolate z on the left side.


==> z = 5 -
2i


Then , a= 5  and b =
-2


Then the absolute value for z is given
by:


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


==> l z l = sqrt( 5^2 +
-2^2)


            = sqrt( 25+ 4) =
sqrt29.


Then, the absolute value for z is l z
l = sqrt29.
