Solve $z+2barz= |barz+3|$.




I'm new to complex numbers and need help solving this equation. Appreciate the assistance. Thanks.



**Edit: I've understood it now, i have to compare the real and imaginary parts. Thanks everyone, have a great day ahead!

HINT



Since



$$z+2bar z=|bar z+3|$$



and $z+bar z=2Re(z)$ we have that $z=bar z=x$ is real then it reduces to solve



$$3x=|x+3|$$

    Let $z=x+iy$ then
    $$(x+iy)+(2x-2iy)=|x-iy+3|$$
    $$3x-iy=|(x+3)-iy|$$
    shows
    $$3x=|(x+3)-iy|~~~~~textand~~~~~-iy=0$$
    can you proceed?

      Note that $z+2overline z$ must be real, which is only possible if $z$ is real !



      Then $$3x=|x+3|$$



      and $x$ must be positive.



      Finally,



      $$3x=x+3.$$
