From the given equations, we can rewrite them as follows:
cxy=ay+bx (1) ayz=bz+cy (2) bzx=az+cx (3) Divide equation (1) by xyz: zc=xza+yzb (4) Divide equation (2) by xyz: xa=xyb+xzc (5) Divide equation (3) by xyz: yb=xya+yzc (6) Let A=xya, B=yzb, C=xzc. Then, equations (4), (5), and (6) can be written as:
zc=A+B (7) xa=B+C (8) yb=A+C (9) Consider x=B+Ck, y=A+Ck, z=A+Bk. Substituting these into equations (7), (8), and (9) to find k gives: zc=kc(A+B)=A+B⟹k=c xa=ka(B+C)=B+C⟹k=a yb=kb(A+C)=A+C⟹k=b This seems problematic.
From (1), (2), and (3):
cxy=ay+bx ayz=bz+cy bzx=az+cx Rearrange the equations:
ay+bx=cxy bz+cy=ayz az+cx=bzx Dividing these equations, we have:
cxyay+bx=1 ayzbz+cy=1 bzxaz+cx=1 Thus:
ay+bx=cxy (1') bz+cy=ayz (2') az+cx=bzx (3') Adding them,
ay+bx+bz+cy+az+cx=cxy+ayz+bzx (a+c)x+(a+b)y+(b+c)z=cxy+ayz+bzx From cxy=ay+bx, we get xy−cay−cbx=0. From ayz=bz+cy, we get yz−abz−acy=0. From bzx=az+cx, we get zx−baz−bcx=0. Unfortunately, without further information or context about what we are looking to find, it is difficult to proceed further.
However, notice that if we add 1 to each equation from the start:
ay+bxxy=c1 => cxy=ay+bx bz+cyyz=a1 => ayz=bz+cy az+cxzx=b1 => bzx=az+cx Multiplying all 3 equations together, we get:
abcx2y2z2=(ay+bx)(bz+cy)(az+cx)
