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)
