help ! for these two identies
(1)$m,n \in N$
$x=\dfrac {m^2+mn+n^2}{4mn-1}$
if $x\in N$
prove: x=1
(ex:m=2, n=1)
(2)$b,d \in N$
b (being even numbers)
d (being odd numbers)
$y=\dfrac {d^2+3}{b^2+bd-1}$
if $y\in N$
prove: y=4
(ex:b=2, d=9)

Re: help ! for these two identities

Are you really trying to prove x = 1 and y = 4?

Hello.

[tex]x=\dfrac{m^2+mn+n^2}{4mn-1}=[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{m^2+mn+n^2}{4mn-1+4m^2-4m^2+4n^2-4n^2}=[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{1}{4-\dfrac{4m^2+4n^2+1}{m^2+mn+n^2}}[/tex]

[tex]4>\dfrac{4m^2+4n^2+1}{m^2+mn+n^2}\geq{3}[/tex]

[tex]4m^2+4n^2+1 \geq{3m^2+3mn+3n^2}[/tex]

[tex]m^2+n^2 \geq{3mn-1}[/tex]

[tex]x=\dfrac{m^2+mn+n^2}{4mn-1} \le{\dfrac{3mn-1+mn}{4mn-1}}[/tex]

[tex]x \le{1}[/tex]

Regards.

[tex]m^2+n^2 \geq{3mn-1}---(*)[/tex]

[tex]x=\dfrac{m^2+mn+n^2}{4mn-1} \le{\dfrac{3mn-1+mn}{4mn-1}}---(**) [/tex]

[tex]x \le{1}[/tex]

[tex]4m^2+4n^2+1 \geq{3m^2+3mn+3n^2}[/tex]
[tex]m^2+n^2 \geq{3mn-1}---(*)[/tex]
from(*)
(**)should be :
[tex]x=\dfrac{m^2+mn+n^2}{4mn-1} \ge{\dfrac{3mn-1+mn}{4mn-1}}[/tex]
this implies :
[tex]x \ge{1}[/tex]
now you have to prove x=1

Hello.
Really, there is a mistake of sign, ultimately. I am sorry.:mad:

I continue in it.

In all that, to the second topic, I do not manage to advance any more that:

[tex]4|(d^2+3) \ and \ 8\cancel{|}(d^2+3)[/tex]

Regards.

Hello.

Good, I am going to try it again. I wait not to have been wrong in the calculations.

[tex]x=\dfrac{m^2+mn+n^2}{4mn-1}[/tex]

[tex]m^2-n(4x-1)m+n^2+x=0[/tex]

[tex]Let \ p, \ q \in{R}/ roots \ of \ m[/tex]

Then:

[tex]pq=n^2+x \rightarrow{n^2=pq-x}[/tex]

[tex]p+q=n(4x-1)[/tex]

General demostration:

[tex](p+q)^2=n^2(4x-1)^2[/tex]

[tex](p+q)^2=(pq-x)(4x-1)^2[/tex]

[tex]F(x)=16x^3-(16pq+8)x^2+(8pq+1)x+(p+q)^2-pq=0[/tex]

Since we know, that "1" is a root:

[tex]\dfrac{F(x)}{x-1}=16x^2-(16pq-8)x-(8pq-9)+Rest[/tex]

If "1" is a root, then Rest=0

[tex]x=\dfrac{16pq-8\pm\sqrt{(16pq-8)^2+64(8pq-9)}}{32}[/tex]

[tex]x=\dfrac{2pq-1\pm\sqrt{4p^2q^2+4pq-8}}{4}[/tex]

Therefore, "x" does not have any more entire roots.

If it is correct, I will go for the second question. :p

Regards.

Hello.

I am going to try to solve the second question.

1º)

[tex]If \ d\in{N} \ /d=odd \rightarrow{4|(d^2+3) \ and \ 8\cancel{|}(d^2+3)}[/tex]

Demostratión:

[tex]Let \ d=2n-1, \ for \ n\in{N}[/tex]

[tex]d^2+3=(2n-1)^2+3=4n^2-4n+1+3=4(n^2-n+1)[/tex]

2º)

[tex]\dfrac{d^2+3}{b^2+bd-1}[/tex]

[tex]yb^2+ydb-y-d^2-3=0[/tex]

[tex]Let \ "p" \ and \ "q" \ roots \ with \ relation \ to \ "b"[/tex]

[tex]p+q=-yd[/tex]

[tex]pq=-y-d^2-3[/tex]

General demonstration:

[tex](p+q)^2=y^2d^2[/tex]

[tex](p+q)^2=y^2(-pq-y-3)=-y^2(pq+3)-y^3[/tex]

[tex]F(y)=y^3+(pq+3)y^2+(p+q)^2=0[/tex]

Since we know, that "4" is a root:

[tex]\dfrac{F(y)}{y-4}=y^2+(pq+7)y+(4pq+28)+Rest[/tex]

If "4" is a root with relation to "y", then Rest=0

[tex]y=\dfrac{-(pq+7)\pm\sqrt{(pq+7)^2-4(4pq+28)}}{2}[/tex][tex]If \ \sqrt{(pq+7)^2-4(4pq+28)} \in{Z}[/tex]:

A contradiction would happen, as for the paragraph 1 º, since one of the numerical roots might be divisible only for "4", but other one would be wholesale or minor of "4".

Conclusion:

[tex]\sqrt{(pq+7)^2-4(4pq+28)} \cancel{\in}{Z}[/tex]:)

Regards.
 

FAQ: Proving Equality for $x$ and $y$

How do you prove equality for x and y?

The most common way to prove equality for x and y is by using algebraic manipulation. This involves transforming both sides of the equation until they are in the same form, and then showing that they are equal. Another method is using the transitive property of equality, where if x = y and y = z, then x = z.

Can you use substitution to prove equality for x and y?

Yes, substitution can also be used to prove equality for x and y. This involves substituting one variable with another in an equation and showing that the result still holds true.

What is the role of the reflexive property in proving equality for x and y?

The reflexive property states that any value is equal to itself. This property is often used as the first step in proving equality for x and y, as it shows that both sides of the equation are equal to the same value.

How do you prove equality for x and y using geometric proofs?

In geometric proofs, equality for x and y can be proven by showing that two figures are congruent. This means that they have the same shape and size, and therefore, their corresponding angles and sides are equal.

Can you prove equality for x and y using the distributive property?

Yes, the distributive property can also be used to prove equality for x and y. This property states that a(b + c) = ab + ac, and can be used to expand and simplify equations until both sides are equal.
