Given ,
The pair of linear equations are
4/x + 5/y = 7
5/x + 4/y = 13/2
Let , 1/x = u and 1/y = v , Then
4u + 5v = 7 ---- (i)
5u + 4v = 13/2 ---- (ii)
Multiply eq (i) by 5 and eq (ii) by 4 , we get
20u + 25v = 35 ---- (iii)
20u + 16v = 26 ---- (iv)
Subtract eq (iv) from eq (iii) , we get
( 20u + 25v ) - (20u + 16v) = 35 - 26
25v - 16v = 9
9v = 9
v = 1
Put the value of v in eq (iv) , we get
20u + 16 = 26
20u = 26 - 16
20u = 10
u = 1/2
Now , substitute the values of v and u in 1/x = u and 1/y = v , we get
1/x = u
1/x = 1/2
x = 2
and
1/y = v
1/y = 1
y = 1
Hence , the values of x and y are 2 and 1
