1. Problem Description

The problem is to find the solutions for the equation x29=y24 - \frac{x^2}{9} = \frac{y^2}{4} .

2. Solution Steps

We want to find the solutions to the equation x29=y24 - \frac{x^2}{9} = \frac{y^2}{4} .
First, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 3636 to eliminate the fractions:
36(x29)=36(y24)36 \cdot (-\frac{x^2}{9}) = 36 \cdot (\frac{y^2}{4})
4x2=9y2 - 4x^2 = 9y^2
Now we can add 4x24x^2 to both sides to get:
0=4x2+9y20 = 4x^2 + 9y^2
4x2+9y2=04x^2 + 9y^2 = 0
Since x2x^2 and y2y^2 are non-negative, 4x24x^2 and 9y29y^2 are also non-negative. The sum of two non-negative terms can only be zero if both terms are zero. Therefore, we must have:
4x2=04x^2 = 0 and 9y2=09y^2 = 0
x2=0x^2 = 0 and y2=0y^2 = 0
x=0x = 0 and y=0y = 0
Therefore, the only solution to the equation is x=0x = 0 and y=0y = 0.

3. Final Answer

x=0,y=0x = 0, y = 0
