The correct Answer is:
To solve the given system of equations, we start with the three equations provided: 1. \(\frac{x}{a} + \frac{y}{a-1} + \frac{z}{a+1} = 1\) 2. \(\frac{x}{b} + \frac{y}{b-1} + \frac{z}{b+1} = 1\) 3. \(\frac{x}{c} + \frac{y}{c-1} + \frac{z}{c+1} = 1\) ### Step 1: Generalize the equations We can write a generalized equation for any \(t\) (where \(t\) can be \(a\), \(b\), or \(c\)): \[ \frac{x}{t} + \frac{y}{t-1} + \frac{z}{t+1} = 1 \] ### Step 2: Clear the denominators Multiply through by \(t(t-1)(t+1)\): \[ x(t-1)(t+1) + y(t)(t+1) + z(t)(t-1) = t(t-1)(t+1) \] ### Step 3: Expand the equation Expanding both sides gives: \[ x(t^2 - 1) + yt(t + 1) + zt(t - 1) = t(t^2 - 1) \] This simplifies to: \[ xt^2 - x + yt^2 + yt + zt^2 - zt = t^3 - t \] ### Step 4: Rearranging the equation Rearranging gives us: \[ (xt^2 + yt^2 + zt^2) + (yt - zt - x) = t^3 - t \] This can be written as: \[ ( x + y + z)t^2 + (y - z - x)t + ( -t^3 + t) = 0 \] ### Step 5: Identify the coefficients This is a cubic equation in \(t\): \[ t^3 - (x + y + z)t^2 + (y - z - x)t + 0 = 0 \] Let’s denote the coefficients: - \(p = x + y + z\) - \(q = y - z - x\) - \(r = 0\) ### Step 6: Roots of the cubic equation Since \(a\), \(b\), and \(c\) are roots of this cubic equation, we can use Vieta's formulas: 1. The sum of the roots \(a + b + c = x + y + z\). 2. The sum of the products of the roots taken two at a time \(ab + ac + bc = - (y - z - x)\). 3. The product of the roots \(abc = 0\). ### Step 7: Analyze the options From the above, we can conclude: 1. \(x + y + z = a + b + c\) (Correct) 2. \(x = -abc\) (Correct, since \(abc\) is the product of roots) 3. We can find \(y\) and \(z\) using the equations derived from Vieta's formulas. ### Step 8: Solve for \(y\) and \(z\) From \(x + y + z = a + b + c\): \[ y + z = a + b + c - x \] From \(ab + ac + bc = - (y - z - x)\): \[ y - z = ab + ac + bc + 1 \] ### Step 9: Solve the linear equations for \(y\) and \(z\) Adding and subtracting these equations will give us the values for \(y\) and \(z\). ### Conclusion The correct options are: 1. \(x + y + z = a + b + c\) 2. \(x = -abc\)
