Solution for (x-y)(a-b)= equation:


Simplifying
(x + -1y)(a + -1b) = 0

Multiply (x + -1y) * (a + -1b)
(x(a + -1b) + -1y * (a + -1b)) = 0
((a * x + -1b * x) + -1y * (a + -1b)) = 0
((ax + -1bx) + -1y * (a + -1b)) = 0
(ax + -1bx + (a * -1y + -1b * -1y)) = 0
(ax + -1bx + (-1ay + 1by)) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(ax + -1ay + -1bx + 1by) = 0
(ax + -1ay + -1bx + 1by) = 0

Solving
ax + -1ay + -1bx + 1by = 0

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add 'bx' to each side of the equation.
ax + -1ay + -1bx + bx + 1by = 0 + bx

Combine like terms: -1bx + bx = 0
ax + -1ay + 0 + 1by = 0 + bx
ax + -1ay + 1by = 0 + bx
Remove the zero:
ax + -1ay + 1by = bx

Add '-1by' to each side of the equation.
ax + -1ay + 1by + -1by = bx + -1by

Combine like terms: 1by + -1by = 0
ax + -1ay + 0 = bx + -1by
ax + -1ay = bx + -1by

Reorder the terms:
ax + -1ay + -1bx + by = bx + -1bx + -1by + by

Combine like terms: bx + -1bx = 0
ax + -1ay + -1bx + by = 0 + -1by + by
ax + -1ay + -1bx + by = -1by + by

Combine like terms: -1by + by = 0
ax + -1ay + -1bx + by = 0
