1. Problem Description

We are given the equation x3+2x2yx2+2xy+4y22y=44x^3 + 2x^2y - x^2 + 2xy + 4y^2 - 2y = 44. The problem asks us to factor the left side of the equation with respect to yy, then analyze the difference of the factors.

2. Solution Steps

(1) Rearranging the left side of the equation in terms of yy, we have
2x2y+2xy+4y22y+x3x2=442x^2y + 2xy + 4y^2 - 2y + x^3 - x^2 = 44.
4y2+(2x2+2x2)y+(x3x244)=04y^2 + (2x^2 + 2x - 2)y + (x^3 - x^2 - 44) = 0.
However, the problem statement hints to factor it as (xA+By)(x+CyD)(x^A + By)(x + Cy - D).
Let's regroup the original expression:
x3x2+2x2y+2xy+4y22y=44x^3 - x^2 + 2x^2y + 2xy + 4y^2 - 2y = 44
x2(x1)+2y(x2+x+2y1)=44x^2(x - 1) + 2y(x^2 + x + 2y - 1) = 44
Consider (x2+2y)(x1+2y)(x^2+2y)(x-1+2y). Expanding this gives
x3x2+2x2y+2xy+4y22yx^3 - x^2 + 2x^2y + 2xy + 4y^2 - 2y.
Thus we have
(x2+2y)(x1+2y)=44(x^2+2y)(x-1+2y)=44
(x2+2y)(x+2y1)=44(x^2 + 2y)(x + 2y - 1) = 44
Comparing this to (xA+By)(x+CyD)(x^A + By)(x + Cy - D), we have A=2,B=2,C=2,D=1A=2, B=2, C=2, D=1.
(2) x2+2yx^2 + 2y and x+2y1x + 2y - 1 are integers, and their product is
4

4. We compute their difference.

(x2+2y)(x+2y1)=x2x+1=x(x1)+1(x^2 + 2y) - (x + 2y - 1) = x^2 - x + 1 = x(x-1) + 1
x(x1)+1=x(xE)+Fx(x-1) + 1 = x(x-E) + F
x(x1)+1=x2x+1x(x-1) + 1 = x^2 - x + 1
Comparing the coefficients, we can see E=1E = 1 and F=1F = 1.
Thus, we have (x2+2y)(x+2y1)=x(x1)+1=d(x^2 + 2y) - (x + 2y - 1) = x(x-1) + 1 = d
d=x2x+1d = x^2 - x + 1. Since x2x=x(x1)x^2 - x = x(x-1) is the product of two consecutive integers, it is an even number. Therefore, x2x+1x^2 - x + 1 must be odd. So dd is odd. Also, x2x+1=(x12)2+34x^2 - x + 1 = (x - \frac{1}{2})^2 + \frac{3}{4}, which is always positive.
Therefore, d>0d>0 and dd is odd.
G corresponds to d>0, so G is

0. H corresponds to d being odd, so H is

3. Final Answer

A=2,B=2,C=2,D=1A=2, B=2, C=2, D=1
E=1,F=1E=1, F=1
G=0,H=4G=0, H=4
