Solution for a*x^2-(a-b)*x=0 equation:


Simplifying
a * x2 + -1(a + -1b) * x = 0

Multiply a * x2
ax2 + -1(a + -1b) * x = 0

Reorder the terms for easier multiplication:
ax2 + -1x(a + -1b) = 0
ax2 + (a * -1x + -1b * -1x) = 0
ax2 + (-1ax + 1bx) = 0

Reorder the terms:
-1ax + ax2 + 1bx = 0

Solving
-1ax + ax2 + 1bx = 0

Solving for variable 'a'.

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

Add '-1bx' to each side of the equation.
-1ax + ax2 + 1bx + -1bx = 0 + -1bx

Combine like terms: 1bx + -1bx = 0
-1ax + ax2 + 0 = 0 + -1bx
-1ax + ax2 = 0 + -1bx
Remove the zero:
-1ax + ax2 = -1bx

Combine like terms: -1bx + bx = 0
-1ax + ax2 + bx = 0

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), 'x'.
x(-1a + ax + b) = 0

Subproblem 1

Set the factor 'x' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying x = 0 Solving x = 0 Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1x' to each side of the equation. x + -1x = 0 + -1x Remove the zero: 0 = -1x Simplifying 0 = -1x The solution to this equation could not be determined. This subproblem is being ignored because a solution could not be determined.

Subproblem 2

Set the factor '(-1a + ax + b)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -1a + ax + b = 0 Solving -1a + ax + b = 0 Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1b' to each side of the equation. -1a + ax + b + -1b = 0 + -1b Combine like terms: b + -1b = 0 -1a + ax + 0 = 0 + -1b -1a + ax = 0 + -1b Remove the zero: -1a + ax = -1b The solution to this equation could not be determined. This subproblem is being ignored because a solution could not be determined. The solution to this equation could not be determined.
