There are 6 solutions a =25, b = 24 a = -25, b = -24 a = 25, b = -24 a = -25, b = 24 a = 7, b = 0 a = -7, b= 0 The squares cancel out all the negatives.

[@bertthebird2341]

​@@user-nl6jv9ob7zThis is solution #6.

[@jeffw1267]

This is pretty obviously a Pythagorean triple of the form 7-24-25. I noted that 49 is the square of 7, and the two variables are also squares, so they had to be 25^2 and 24^2.

[@davereynolds739]

My question is what did the Math Olympiad have as the correct answer?

[@michaelhuppertz6738]

Even more than 6: example (a,b) = (+/-9, sqrt(32)),+/8, sqrt(15),..., without definition D= for (a,b) there are many more, the presenter should limit D to integer only.

[@ajeethpandey]

One equation n two variables it means infinite solutions !

[@learncommunolizer]

Note; {a,b} are elements of Natural numbers which are counting numbers or positive integers, Otherwise we will have many solutions

[@lanisilvious7098]

Umm, 2 unkowns, one equation. That means specific solutions are impossible, you need another equation! Is there an additional specification, like a and b have to be integers?

Thank you, very comprehensible explanation.

[@XfeeXg]

Đây là dạng hàm số Y=(X*2+ C)^2 Cho biến số X mọi giá trị sao cho X*2 lớn hơn hoặc bằng C ( nếu C nhỏ hơn không), thì đạt được giá trị tương ứng của Y. Tồn tại vô số cặp nghiệm Cặp nghiệm nguyên dễ nhận ra nhất của đẳng thức a*2 - b*2=49 là a =+ - 7 b =0 ( a phải khác 0)

[@pm-os7lz]

Let a=n and b=n-c, where c is a constant. Thus a^2 - b^2 = 49 can be written as n^2 - (n-c)^2 = 49. Solving for c gives, c = (n^2 - 49)^(1/2) + n. Plug c back into b. Thus, b = -(n^2 - 49)^(1/2). So, if a = n, then b = -((n^2 - 49)^(1/2)). So, a^2 - b^2 = 49 = n^2 - (-(n^2 - 49)^(1/2))^2 = 49, for n >= 7 and n

x²+y²=R² x=b, y=7, R=a therefore, the equation represents the circle b²+7²=a², and has infinitely many solutions in ℝ

[@markdaniel8740]

​@@profemarcoresuelvebefore you say that someone is wrong, make sure that you are right. X^2 + y^2 = r^2 will define a circle with radius r that is centered at the origin A hyperbole has more variables to define the focal point

[@pm-os7lz]

Totally makes sense. However, I view the problem not as one trying to find out how many solutions there are, but one that is trying to find specific solutions based on the relationship between a and b.

[@profemarcoresuelve]

@@markdaniel8740 Primero hay que identificar quienes son las variables en el problema. Las variables son a y b, y 49 es la contante ,por consiguiente la igualdad a²-b²=7² que se esta planteando pertenece a la ecuación de la hiperbola que esta centrada en el origen. Lo que ud ha planteado b²+7²=a², no es la ecuación del circulo amigo

[@rainerinedinburgh5807]

That's only half correct. The equation x²+y²=r² only represents a circle if x and y are variable and r is the fixed radius. Here you are fixing y=7 (to be more precise, you're fixing y²=7², i.e. |y|=7), and allowing x=b to be one variable, and the radius a to be variable too. For any specific |a|>7, the equation actually represents the four points at which the circle x²+y²=a² intersects the two lines y=7 and y=-7. For |a|

[@erdemakca433]

(a-b).(a+b)=49. The number 49 =49*1. So (a+b)=49 and (a-b)=1. İf we add (a+b) to (a-b) and so add 49 to 1 we can get 2a =50. We can get from this equilibrium that a=25 and b=24

Much easier way to find a solution in integers: a^2 = b^2 + 7^2 and there's a well-known pythagorean triple, 7^2 + 24^2 = 25^2, so a = 25 and b = 24. Note this doesn't guarantee to have found all solutions.

This is not correct math. You should have shared your assumptions at the beginning. You are assumung both a and b to be >= 0 and are integers. Otherwise, in this case it is one equation with two variables. So there are multiple values for both a and b. If you assume a to be dependent and b is independent then for all values of a (both positive and negative), there is a value for b. Please each correct math.

[@humbertorodriguezperez1214]

He is assuming that b >= 0 and a > b (or else a^2 - b^2 =< 0), as well as that both are integers. And right, he should have said he was assuming these premises before starting solving the problem

625 - 576 = 49. 25^2 = 625; 24^2 = 576. Die Frage ist nur, welche 2 aufeinanderfolgenden Zahlen 49 ergeben. Die Berechnung funktioniert geht so auf, weil die Exponenten dieselben sind.

[@gerar2158]

¿Cómo salen las soluciones?. Si se hace a=bk (con “k”constante). De ahí, operando algebraicamente se desprende que b=(7*((k+1)(k-1))^1/2)/(k+1)(k-1). En consecuencia, para cada valor de “k" existirá un par ordenado (a,b) que es solución. para A^2-b^2=49

[@henk-ottolimburg7947]

The difference of 2 consecutive squares is an odd number. a and b differ 1 it's 49/2, so that leads to 24-25 Are there any other solutions? a and b differ 2 is no good, the squares differ by two odd numbers, so that's even. could they differ 3? That would be (x-2)+ x + (x+2), average x, 49 is not divisable by 3. Neigther is it divisable by 5. But it is divisable by 7, so (x-7)+(x-5) etc. average x=7 1+3+5+7+9+11+13=49, so 0 and 7. Written down like this it seems complicated, but take the first and fourth line and write that in a table

Two unknowns, one equation. Cannot be done. The answer will be speculative. Clearly, a or b is 7, at the same time the other must be 0.

OK so. . .idiot question. Why only use the positive factors (1 × 49)(49 × 1)(7 × 7)? (-1 × -49) = 49. (-49 × -1) = 49. (-7 × -7) = 49 For example, using -1 and -49 (-1 > -49) a + b = -1 a - b = -49 2a = -50 a= -25 b = -24 Check: a^2 - b^2 = 49 -25 can be squared (-25)^2 = 625 -24 can be squared (-24)^2 = 576 625-576 = 49 Try -7 and -7 a + b = -7 a - b = -7 2a = -14 a = -7 b = 0 Check a^2 - b^2 = 49 (-7)^2 - 0^2 = 49 -7 can be squared (-7)^2 = 49 So a^2 is 49 if a = -7 49 - 0^2 = 0 0 squared is 0 So b squared = 0 49 - 0 = 49 So i got (a,b) = (7, 0) or (25, 24) or (-7, 0) or (-25, -24). So. . .why are negative factors not factors? Where is the error in my math?
