Hello

Let the resistances be r1 and r2

The given equivalent resistances are

For parallel = 2 ohm
For series = 9 ohms

So, from ohms law

The speed resistance will be

R(eq) = r1 +r2
Or,
r1 + r2 = 9 ohms

Now
For parallel connection

 \frac{1}{r(eq)}  =  \frac{1}{r1}  +  \frac{1}{r2}  \\  \\  \frac{1}{2}  =  \frac{1}{r1}  +  \frac{1}{r2}  \\  \frac{1}{2}  =  \frac{r1 + r2}{r1r2}  \\ r1r2 = 2(9) = 18 \\ r1 =  \frac{18}{r2}
Now


R1 = 18/r2

And
R1 = 9 - r2

So,
Equating both
9 - r2 =  \frac{18}{r2}  \\  \frac{18}{r2}   + r2 =  9 \\  \\ = 18 +  {(r2)}^{2}  = 9r2 \\  \\ consider \: r2 \: as \: x \\  {x}^{2}  - 9x + 18 = 0 \\  {x}^{2}  - 6x - 3x + 18 = 0 \\ x(x - 6) - 3(x - 6) \\ (x - 6)(x - 3) \\
Now

equating with Zeroes we get the value of x as 6 and 3

So,
Now ,
From equation 1
R1+R2 =9

Of R2 =6 then R1 will be 3
And if R2 =3 then R1 will be 6

So ,
The value of the two resistances is equal to
6 ohm and 3 ohm


Hope this will be helping you ✌️
