Step-by-step explanation:
As given,
- x² + y² = 50
And
- xy = 7
Identity 1,
- (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²
We can say that,
- ➠ (x + y)² = x² + y² + 2xy
- ➠ (x + y)² = 50 + 2(7) = 50 + 14
- ➠ (x + y)² = 64
- ➠ (x + y)² = 8²
Comparing both sides,
- ➠ x + y = 8 ---(1)
Identity 2,
- (a - b)² = a² + 2ab + b²
We can say that,
- ➠ (x - y)² = x² + y² - 2xy
- ➠ (x - y)² = 50 - 2(7) = 50 - 14
- ➠ (x - y)² = 36
- ➠ (x - y)² = 6²
Comparing both sides,
- ➠ x - y = 6 ---(2)
Solving the problem,
- ➠ (x + y)/(x - y) = (x + y)/(x - y)
By Equation (1) and (2),
- ➠ (x + y)/(x - y) = 8/6
- ➠ (x + y)/(x - y) = 4/3
Finalized Answer:
- The value of (x + y)/(x - y) is 4/3.
