How to solve this equation #e^(6z)+(1-i)e^(3z)-i=0#, for z where z is a complex number? Precalculus Exponential and Logistic Functions The Natural Base e 1 Answer Cesareo R. Mar 13, 2017 See below. Explanation: Calling #w=e^(3z)# we have #w^2+(1-i)w-i=0# solving for #w# we have #w=-1 = e^(i (pi+2kpi))# and #w=i = e^(i(pi/2+2kpi))# or 1) #e^(3z)=e^(i (pi+2kpi))# or #3z=i (pi+2kpi) = 3(x+iy)->{(x=0),(y=pi/3+2/3kpi):}# 2) #e^(3z)=e^(i(pi/2+2kpi))# or #3z = i(pi/2+2kpi)=3(x+iy)->{(x=0),(y=pi/6+2/3kpi):}# Answer link Related questions What is base e?
