Question

if x=5/4 and y=-1/3 ,find the value of (x+y)/(x-y)
​

Answer 1

(5/4-1/3)(5/4+1/3)

25/16-1/9

(135-16) /144

119/144

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

x = 5/4. y = -1/3

(x+y)/(x-y) = (5/4-1/3) / (5/4+1/3)

= (15-4/12) / (15+4/12)

= (11/12) / (19/12)

12 get cancelled on numerator and denominator

= 11/19
