Let A = (√x) and B = (√y)
So that x+y = A^2 +B^2 .
{ ((A(1+(1/(A^2 +B^2 )))=(3/2))),((B(1−(1/(A^2 +B^2 )))=(6/5))) :}
Define S = A^2 +B^2 .
{ ((A=(3/2)∙(S/(S+1)))),(((6/5)∙(S/(S−1)))) :}
We will use this to find S.
Since A^2 +B^2 =S,
Substitute the expressions.
(((3S)/(2(S+1))))^2 +(((6S)/(5(S−1))))^2 = S
((9S^2 )/(4(S+1)^2 ))+((36S^2 )/(25(S−1)))=S
Multiply both sides by the common
denominator 100(S+1)^2 (S−1)^2
225S^2 (S−1)+144S^2 (S+1)^2 =100(S+1)^2 (S−1)^2
Expand both sides.
For LHS:225S^2 (S^2 −2S+1)+144S^2 (S^2 + 2S+1)
=S^2 (225(S^2 −2S+1)+144(S^2 +2S+1))
=S^2 (369S^2 −162S+369)
For RHS:100S^5 −100S
Divide both sides by S ≠ 0
S(369S^2 −162S+369)=100S^4 −100
And Bring all terms to one side.
100S^4 −369S^3 +162S^2 −369S−100=0
Solving the quarctic would be hard..
Im going to check if S = 4 works:
100(4)−369(4)^3 +162(4)^2 −369(4)−100
=100(256)−369(64)+162(16)−369(4)−100
=25600−23520+2592−1476−100=0
So S = 4 is a real Root.
Im going to Factor (S−4) using polynomial division.
100S^4 −369S^3 +162S^2 −100÷(S−4)
(S−4)(100S^3 +31S^2 +38S+25)=0
Now..
100S^3 +31S^2 +38S+25=0
Unfortunately, I dont know how to solve cubic equations.
Using a CAS (numerically)
S_2 =−(7/8)+((3i)/2)
S_3 =−(7/8)−((3i)/2)
Back−Substituting Complex S,
Computing A^2 = x, B^2 =y
Eventually this gives:
x=−(7/(16))±((3i)/2),y=((63)/(400))±((27i)/(50))✓
And the real solution:
x=((36)/(25)),y=((63)/(400))✓
(Because after solving the quarctic to get the real solution,
(((3/2)(4))/((4)−1))=(6/5)⇒x=A^2 =((36)/(25))✓
(((6/5)(4))/((4)−1))=((24)/(15))=(8/5)⇒y=B^2 =((64)/(25))✓
