Supposing I had two equations: $\alpha/\beta=\mu$ and $\alpha/\beta^{2}=\sigma^{2}$, where $\alpha$, $\beta$, $\sigma$ and $\mu \in \mathbb R$. How can I solve for $\alpha$ and $\beta$?

Furthermore, is there a general method for this kind of system?

    Divide. We get $\beta=\frac{\sigma^2}{\mu}$. Square the first expression and divide. We get $\alpha=\frac{\sigma^2}{\mu^2}$.2012-10-09
