Solve for x and y x^3-y^3=7 x^2+xy+y^2=7

x^3 - y^3 =
7..........(1)


x^2 + xy + y^2 = 7
..............(2)


We need to solve the
system.


First we will rewrite equation (1) as a difference
between cubes.


==> x^3 - y^2 = (x-y)(x^2 +
xy+y^2)


But from equation (2) , we know that x^2 + xy+ y^2
= 7


==> 7* (x-y) =
7


Now we will divide by
7.


==> x-y =
1


==> x= y+1
............(3)


Now we will substitute with either
equations.


==> x^3 - y^3 =
7


==> (y+1)^3 - y^3 =
7


==> y^2 + 2y +
1)(y+1)


==> y^3 + 3y^2 +3y + 1 - y^3 =
7


We will reduce
similar.


==> 3y^2 + + 3y -6 =
0


We will divide by
3.


==> y^2 + y -2 =
0


Now we will
factor.


==> (y+2)(y-1) =
0


==> y1= -2 ==> x1= -2+1 =
-1


==> y2= 1 ==> x2= 1+1 =
2


Then we have two solutions:
( -1, -2) and (2, 1)

Calculate tan(x-y), if sin x=1/2 and sin y=1/3. 0

We'll write the formula of the tangent of difference of 2 angles. tan (x-y) = (tan x - tan y)/(1 + tan x*tan y) ...
