Question

If a2+b2=5 and a3+b3=9 find a and b

Answer 1

Answer:

This can be solved by a method called Hit and Trial.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we will assume some value of a and b, say

a = 1 and b = 2

So according to the question -

1² + 2² = 5

1 + 4 = 5 > 5 = 5

1³ + 2³ = 9

1 + 8 = 9 > 9 = 9

Hence a and b are 1 and 2 respectively...
