SOLUTION: a + b =1 a^-1 + b^-1 = 1 prove a = b and a^-1 = b^-1
I have that
a = b / (b-1)
b = 1-a
plugging in b to a
I get a = (1-a)/a
set those equal
(1-a)

Question 159161: a + b =1 a^-1 + b^-1 = 1 prove a = b and a^-1 = b^-1
I have that
a = b / (b-1)
b = 1-a
plugging in b to a
I get a = (1-a)/a
set those equal
(1-a)/a = b/(b-1)

You can put this solution on YOUR website! I'm not sure if you have the right equations. If , then this means that becomes ===> which is NOT true for all values of "a". So double check the problem.
