Question

If a - b = 3 and a2 + b2 = 29, find the value of ab​

Answer 1

Hi,

According to the problem given,

a - b = 3 ---( 1 )

a² + b² = 29----( 2 )

We know that the algebraic identity,

( a - b )² = a² + b² - 2ab

3² = 29 - 2 ab

[ From ( 1 ) and ( 2 ) ]

9 = 29 - 2ab

2ab = 29 - 9

2ab = 20

ab = 20/2

ab = 10

I hope this helps you.

:)

Answer 2

Answer:

a-b=3

a²+b²=29

(a-b)² = a² + b² -2ab

3² = 29 - 2ab

27 = 29 - 2ab

2ab = 2

ab = 1

Here is your answer.....
