Answer:
Here is ur answer Hope it's help you
Step-by-step explanation:
x/3+y/4=11,
5x/6−y/3=−7
Simplify the both equations:
3
x
+
4
y
=11⇒4x+3y=132 and
6
5x
−
3
y
=−7⇒5x−2y=−42
We have,
4x+3y=132...(1)
5x−2y=−42...(2)
Let us use elimination method to solve the given system of equation.
Multiply (1) by 2 and (2) by 3. And add both the equations.
23x=138
8x+6y=26415x−6y=−126
x=
23
138
=6
From (1):4(6)+3y=132
y=108/3=36
Answer x=6 and y=36
let 1/x = a and 1/y = b
so, the equations become
5a - 6b = 3. (i)
a + 4b = 11. (ii)
multiplying (ii) by 5 we get, 5a + 20b = 55. (iii)
now, subtracting (iii) from (i) we get
5a - 6b - 5a - 20b = 3 - 55
or -26b = -52
or b = -52 ÷ -26
or b = 2
now, substituting value of b in (i),
5a - 12 = 3
or 5a = 3 + 12
or 5a = 15
or a = 3
Here 1/x = 3 or x = 1/3
and 1/y = 2 or y = 1/2.
