Which one is in the form of z=x+yi?

A). x(x^4-10x^2y^2+5y^4)+(5x^4y-10x^2y^3+y^5)i
Or
B). x(x^4-10x^2y^2+5y^4)+(5x^4-10x^2y^2+y^4)yi

Both of them?

So if x(x^4-10x^2y^2+5y^4)+(5x^4-10x^2y^2+y^4)yi=1, equating the imaginary parts to get an equation in x and y would give me (5x^4-10x^2y^2+y^4)y=1?

The imaginary part of 1 is 0, so you get (5x^4-10x^2y^2+y^4)y = 0 and x(x^4-10x^2y^2+5y^4) = 1, assuming x and y are real.
