Solve for x and y.
`ax+by=c`
`bx+ay=1+c`

A

`x=(bc-ac+b)/(b^(2)-a^(2)),y=(bc-ac-a)/(b^(2)-a^(2))`

B

`x=(b)/(b^(2)-a^(2)),y=(a)/(b^(2)-a^(2))`

C

`x=a,y=b`

D

`x=b,y=(bc-ac+b)/(b^(2)-a^(2))`

The correct Answer is:
To solve the given system of equations: 1. **Equations:** \[ ax + by = c \quad \text{(1)} \] \[ bx + ay = 1 + c \quad \text{(2)} \] 2. **Multiply Equation (1) by \(b\) and Equation (2) by \(a\):** \[ b(ax + by) = bc \quad \Rightarrow \quad abx + b^2y = bc \quad \text{(3)} \] \[ a(bx + ay) = a(1 + c) \quad \Rightarrow \quad abx + a^2y = a + ac \quad \text{(4)} \] 3. **Subtract Equation (4) from Equation (3):** \[ (abx + b^2y) - (abx + a^2y) = bc - (a + ac) \] This simplifies to: \[ b^2y - a^2y = bc - a - ac \] \[ (b^2 - a^2)y = (b - a)c - a \] 4. **Solve for \(y\):** \[ y = \frac{(b - a)c - a}{b^2 - a^2} \] 5. **Now substitute \(y\) back into one of the original equations to find \(x\). We can use Equation (1):** \[ ax + b\left(\frac{(b - a)c - a}{b^2 - a^2}\right) = c \] 6. **Multiply through by \(b^2 - a^2\) to eliminate the denominator:** \[ ax(b^2 - a^2) + b((b - a)c - a) = c(b^2 - a^2) \] 7. **Rearranging gives:** \[ ax(b^2 - a^2) = c(b^2 - a^2) - b((b - a)c - a) \] 8. **Now, isolate \(x\):** \[ x = \frac{c(b^2 - a^2) - b((b - a)c - a)}{b^2 - a^2} \] 9. **Thus, the final solutions for \(x\) and \(y\) are:** \[ x = \frac{c(b^2 - a^2) - b((b - a)c - a)}{b^2 - a^2} \] \[ y = \frac{(b - a)c - a}{b^2 - a^2} \]
