If x, y, a, b are positive real numbers, prove that : 1/(1+x^a-b) + 1/(1+x^b-a) = 1

Proof of 1/(1+x^(a-b)) + 1/(1+x^(b-a)) = 1 Prove: \(\frac{1}{1+x^{a-b}} + \frac{1}{1+x^{b-a}} = 1\) Proof \[ = \frac{1}{1+x^{a-b}} + \frac{1}{1+x^{-(a-b)}} \] \[ = \frac{1}{1+x^{a-b}} + \frac{x^{a-b}}{1+x^{a-b}} \] \[ = \frac{1 + x^{a-b}}{1 + x^{a-b}} \] \[ = 1 \] Hence Proved Next Question / Full Exercise

If x, y, a, b are positive real numbers, prove that : (x^a/x^b)^c × (x^b/x^c)^a × (x^c/x^a)^b = 1

Proof of (x^a/x^b)^c (x^b/x^c)^a (x^c/x^a)^b = 1 Prove: \(\left(\frac{x^a}{x^b}\right)^c \times \left(\frac{x^b}{x^c}\right)^a \times \left(\frac{x^c}{x^a}\right)^b = 1\) Proof \[ = \left(x^{a-b}\right)^c \cdot \left(x^{b-c}\right)^a \cdot \left(x^{c-a}\right)^b \] \[ = x^{(a-b)c} \cdot x^{(b-c)a} \cdot x^{(c-a)b} \] \[ = x^{ac – bc + ab – ac + bc – ab} \] \[ = x^0 \] \[ = 1 \] Hence
