Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given sum of two numbers is 9
Let one number be x
Another number be 9-x
18 times sum of their reciprocals is 9
18(1/x+1/9-x)=9
18(9-x+x/x(9-x)=9
9/9x-x^2=1/2. [9/18=1/2]
9x-x^2=18
x^2-9x+18=0
x^2-3x-6x+18=0
x(x-3)-6(x-3)=0
(x-6)(x-3)=0
x-6=0 or x-3=0
x=6 or x=3
Therefore,
The two numbers are
One number=x=6
Another number=9-x=9-6=3
Another number=3
