Solution for a(x-y)+b(y-x)=0 equation:


Simplifying
a(x + -1y) + b(y + -1x) = 0
(x * a + -1y * a) + b(y + -1x) = 0
(ax + -1ay) + b(y + -1x) = 0

Reorder the terms:
ax + -1ay + b(-1x + y) = 0
ax + -1ay + (-1x * b + y * b) = 0
ax + -1ay + (-1bx + by) = 0

Solving
ax + -1ay + -1bx + by = 0

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add 'bx' to each side of the equation.
ax + -1ay + -1bx + bx + by = 0 + bx

Combine like terms: -1bx + bx = 0
ax + -1ay + 0 + by = 0 + bx
ax + -1ay + by = 0 + bx
Remove the zero:
ax + -1ay + by = bx

Add '-1by' to each side of the equation.
ax + -1ay + by + -1by = bx + -1by

Combine like terms: by + -1by = 0
ax + -1ay + 0 = bx + -1by
ax + -1ay = bx + -1by
