. Solve for x and y.
ху/x+ y=1/5,x+yis not equals to 0
xy/x-y=1/7,x-y is not equals to 0
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:take xy=a
then, a/x+y=1/5
=> 5a=x=y - (1)
a/x-y=1/7
=> 7a=x-y -(2)
by adding (1) and (2)
7a=x-y
5a=x+y
=>12a=2x
=> 6a=x
=> 6xy=x ( because a=xy )
=> 6y=1
=> y=1/6
=> 7xy=x-y
=> 7x/6=x-1/6
=> 7x/6=(6x-1)/6
=> 7x= 6x-1
=> 7x-6x = -1
=> x= -1
