Subproblem 1

Set the factor 'a' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying a = 0 Solving a = 0 Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right. Simplifying a = 0

Subproblem 2

Set the factor '(x + -1y)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying x + -1y = 0 Solving x + -1y = 0 Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1x' to each side of the equation. x + -1x + -1y = 0 + -1x Combine like terms: x + -1x = 0 0 + -1y = 0 + -1x -1y = 0 + -1x Remove the zero: -1y = -1x Add 'y' to each side of the equation. -1y + y = -1x + y Combine like terms: -1y + y = 0 0 = -1x + y Simplifying 0 = -1x + y The solution to this equation could not be determined. This subproblem is being ignored because a solution could not be determined.
