Question

if a+b= 7 and ab=10 find a-b

Answer 1

HI FRIEND ✋✋

a + b = 7

a= 7 - b

ab = 10

(7-b)b = 10

7b - b² = 10

b² - 7b + 10 = 0

b² - 5b - 2b + 10 = 0

b( b - 5 ) - 2(b-5) = 0

b = 2 , b = 5

-------------------

when b = 2 , a = 5

therefore , a - b = 5 -2 = 3

--------------------------------------

and when b = 5 , a = 2

a- b = 2-5 = -3

hope it helps

Answer 2

Hey..!!

ur answer is here..》^_^《

(a+b)²-(a-b)²=4ab

(a-b)²=(a+b)²-4ab

=7²-4*10

=49-40

(a-b)²=9

a-b=√9=3

Hope its helpful✌
