since ab = 15
b= 15/a
put b=15/a in a - b =2
a - 15/a = 2
a^2 - 15 = 2a
a^2 - 2a -15 =0
solving quadratic equation
a^2 -5a +3a-15=0
a(a-5) +3(a-5)=0
(a+3)= 0 or (a-5) =0
Therefore a = -3 or a= 5
Accordingly from eq. a-b =2
b= -5 or b = 3
To find the value of a^2 - b^2
= (a+b)(a-b)
=(a+b)× 2
(a+b)= 8 or -8
so, (a+b) × 2
= 16 or -16
