Detailed Solution

Eliminating x we have
m+lyy+l2am+lyy+l+b=0 or (m+ly)2a(m+ly)(y+l)+b(y+l)2=0
is same as first eq 
l2al+bl=2lmal2am+2bla=m2alm+bl2b

From 1st and third fraction bl2al+b=m2alm+bl2 or (bm)(albm)=0

either b = m or b + m = al From 1st and second fraction, putting b = m
al2a2l+am=4lmal2am  or 2al2a2l4lm2am=0 or a2l2al2+m+4lm=0 a=2l or al=2m

Thus either b = m and a = 2l    b = m   and   al = 2m
