\( a = b \) or \( a = 4b \).
Solución
Solve the equation \( a^{2}-5ab+4b^{2}=0 \).
Solve the equation by following steps:
- step0: Solve for \(a\):
\(a^{2}-5ab+4b^{2}=0\)
- step1: Rewrite the expression:
\(a^{2}-5ba+4b^{2}=0\)
- step2: Factor the expression:
\(\left(a-b\right)\left(a-4b\right)=0\)
- step3: Separate into possible cases:
\(\begin{align}&a-b=0\\&a-4b=0\end{align}\)
- step4: Solve the equation:
\(\begin{align}&a=b\\&a=4b\end{align}\)
The solutions for \( a \) in terms of \( b \) are \( a = b \) and \( a = 4b \).
