Question: Simplify: \dfrac{ \left ( 1 + \dfrac{x}{y} \right ) ^ {\frac{x}{x-y}} × \left ( 1 - \dfrac{y}{x} \right ) ^{\frac{y}{x-y}} } { \left ( \dfrac{y}{x} +1 \right ) ^ {\frac{x}{x-y}} × \left ( \dfrac{x}{y} -1 \right ) ^{\frac{y}{x-y}} }
Solution:
Given,
= \dfrac{ \left ( 1 + \dfrac{x}{y} \right ) ^ {\frac{x}{x-y}} × \left ( 1 - \dfrac{y}{x} \right ) ^{\frac{y}{x-y}} } { \left ( \dfrac{y}{x} +1 \right ) ^ {\frac{x}{x-y}} × \left ( \dfrac{x}{y} -1 \right ) ^{\frac{y}{x-y}} }
= \dfrac{ \left ( \dfrac{y+x}{y} \right ) ^ {\frac{x}{x-y}} × \left ( \dfrac{x-y}{x} \right ) ^{\frac{y}{x-y}} } { \left ( \dfrac{y+x}{x} +\right ) ^ {\frac{x}{x-y}} × \left ( \dfrac{x-y}{y} \right ) ^{\frac{y}{x-y}} }
= \dfrac{\dfrac{(y+x)^{\frac{x}{x-y}}}{(y)^{\frac{x}{x-y}} } × \dfrac{(x-y)^{ \frac{y}{x-y}} }{(x)^{\frac{y}{x-y}} } } { \dfrac{(y+x)^{\frac{x}{x-y} } }{(x)^{ \frac{x}{x-y}}} × \dfrac{(x-y)^{\frac{y}{x-y} }}{(y)^{ \frac{y}{x-y}}} }
= \dfrac{ \dfrac{1} { (y)^{\frac{x}{x-y} } } × \dfrac{1}{ (x)^{\frac{y}{x-y} }}} { \dfrac{1} { (x)^{\frac{x}{x-y} } } × \dfrac{1}{ (y)^{\frac{y}{x-y} }} }
= \dfrac{x^{\frac{x}{x-y}} × y^{\frac{y}{x-y}}}{y^{\frac{x}{x-y}} × x^{\frac{y}{x-y}}}
= \dfrac{x^{\frac{x}{x-y}} × x^{- \frac{y}{x-y}}}{y^{\frac{x}{x-y}} × y^{- \frac{y}{x-y}}}
= \dfrac{x^{\frac{x}{x-y} - \frac{y}{x-y}}}{y^{\frac{x}{x-y} - \frac{y}{x-y}}}
= \dfrac{x^{\frac{x-y}{x-y}}}{y^{\frac{x-y}{x-y}}}
= \dfrac{x^1}{y^1}
= \dfrac{x}{y}
= Answer
