[Community Question] Algebra-Precalculus: working with traded numbers

One of our user asked:

A man want 762 by a number, but he trade it and its quotient result 13 and its rest was 13. What the quotient and rest of the original number? $$ q = ?; r=? $$ $$ 762 = q \cdot \overline{ ab } + r $$ $$ 762 = 13 \cdot \overline {ba} + 21 $$

Another way to write this is: $$ \frac{762-r}{ \overline{ba}}=r $$ $$ \frac{762-21}{ \overline{ba}}=13 $$

[Community Question] Calculus: calculating 2 constants in a function

One of our user asked: $$M=\{f\in C[0,2\pi],\int_{0}^{2\pi}f(x)sinxdx=\pi,\int_{0}^{2\pi}f(x)sin2xdx=2\pi\} $$ $a,b\in \mathbb R, g\in M, g(x)=asinx+bsin2x,x\in [0,2\pi]$ I've read on the answers that $a=1,b=2$ and I don't know how to calculate them. Can somebody explain me,please? By the way, the problem is to determine $ \int_{0}^{2\pi}(g(x))^2 dx$ so you have to first get the constants $a$ and $b$ .

Calculus: A difficulty in understanding a step in a solution.

Here is the solution: But I could not understand how the last term in the fourth line came from the line before it, could anyone explain this for me please?
