solve the following a(x+y)+b(x-y)-(a²-ab+b²)=0 and a(x+y)-b(x-y)-(a²+ab+b²)=0
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Taking x+y=u and x−y=v the given system of equations becomes
au+bu−(a
2
−ab+b
2
)=0
au−bv−(a
2
+ab+b
2
)=0
By cross-multiplication, we have
⇒
b×−(a
2
+ab+b
2
)−(−b)×−(a

−ab+b

u
=
a×−(a

−v
=
a×−b−a×b

−v
=
−ab−ab

⇒
−b(a

u

−a(a

−v
=
−2ab

⇒
−2b(a

+b

)
u
=
−a(2ab)
−v
=
−2ab

⇒u=
−2ab
−2b(a

,v=
−2ab

b
⇒u=
a
a
2
+b

,v=−a
Now, u=
a
a
2
+b

⇒x+y=

.(i)
and, v=−a⇒x−y=−a ..(ii)
Adding equations (i) and (ii), we get
2x=

−a⇒2x=

⇒2x=

⇒x=

Substitutiing equation (ii) from equation (i), we get
2y=

⇒y=

Hence, the solution of the given system of equations is x=
