D'alembert functional equation

The D'Alembert functional equation is f(x+y)+f(xy)=2f(x)f(y).
Let f:RR satisfy the functional equation for all x,yR. It's well known that f is of the form f(x)=E(x)+E(x)2, for some E:RC.
How can I use this functional equation to solve the following problem?




Let λ be a nonzero real constant. Find all functions f,g:RR that satisfy the functional equation f(x+y)+g(xy)=λf(x)g(y)
for all x,yR.
