The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \[ \frac{x^{3}+12x}{6x^{2}+8}=\frac{y^{3}+27y}{9y^{2}+27} \] using the method of componendo and dividendo, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Apply Componendo and Dividendo We start with the given equation: \[ \frac{a}{b} = \frac{c}{d} \] where \( a = x^{3} + 12x \), \( b = 6x^{2} + 8 \), \( c = y^{3} + 27y \), and \( d = 9y^{2} + 27 \). Using the property of componendo and dividendo, we have: \[ \frac{a+b}{a-b} = \frac{c+d}{c-d} \] ### Step 2: Calculate \( a + b \) and \( a - b \) Calculate \( a + b \): \[ a + b = (x^{3} + 12x) + (6x^{2} + 8) = x^{3} + 6x^{2} + 12x + 8 \] Calculate \( a - b \): \[ a - b = (x^{3} + 12x) - (6x^{2} + 8) = x^{3} - 6x^{2} + 12x - 8 \] ### Step 3: Calculate \( c + d \) and \( c - d \) Calculate \( c + d \): \[ c + d = (y^{3} + 27y) + (9y^{2} + 27) = y^{3} + 9y^{2} + 27y + 27 \] Calculate \( c - d \): \[ c - d = (y^{3} + 27y) - (9y^{2} + 27) = y^{3} - 9y^{2} + 27y - 27 \] ### Step 4: Set Up the New Equation Now we can set up the new equation: \[ \frac{x^{3} + 6x^{2} + 12x + 8}{x^{3} - 6x^{2} + 12x - 8} = \frac{y^{3} + 9y^{2} + 27y + 27}{y^{3} - 9y^{2} + 27y - 27} \] ### Step 5: Factor the Expressions Notice that: - \( x^{3} + 6x^{2} + 12x + 8 = (x + 2)^{3} \) - \( x^{3} - 6x^{2} + 12x - 8 = (x - 2)^{3} \) - \( y^{3} + 9y^{2} + 27y + 27 = (y + 3)^{3} \) - \( y^{3} - 9y^{2} + 27y - 27 = (y - 3)^{3} \) Thus, we can rewrite the equation as: \[ \frac{(x + 2)^{3}}{(x - 2)^{3}} = \frac{(y + 3)^{3}}{(y - 3)^{3}} \] ### Step 6: Take the Cube Root Taking the cube root of both sides gives us: \[ \frac{x + 2}{x - 2} = \frac{y + 3}{y - 3} \] ### Step 7: Apply Componendo and Dividendo Again Now we apply componendo and dividendo again: \[ \frac{(x + 2) + (x - 2)}{(x + 2) - (x - 2)} = \frac{(y + 3) + (y - 3)}{(y + 3) - (y - 3)} \] Calculating the left side: \[ \frac{2x}{4} = \frac{x}{2} \] Calculating the right side: \[ \frac{2y}{6} = \frac{y}{3} \] ### Step 8: Set the Two Sides Equal Setting the two sides equal gives us: \[ \frac{x}{2} = \frac{y}{3} \] ### Step 9: Solve for \( \frac{x}{y} \) Cross-multiplying gives: \[ 3x = 2y \implies \frac{x}{y} = \frac{2}{3} \] ### Final Answer Thus, the ratio \( x : y \) is \[ \boxed{\frac{2}{3}} \]
