Question

A. Solve the following pairs of equations by reducing them to a pair of linear equation :- 1/2x + 1/3y = 2 1/3x + 1/2y =13/6​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 1/2 , y = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

let 1/x = m , 1/y = n

m/2 + n/3 = 2

m/3 + n/2 = 13/6

3m + 2n = 12

2m + 3n = 13

-------------

9m + 6n = 36

4m + 6n = 26

5m = 10

m =2 , n = 3

x = 1/2 , y = 1/3
