Question

Verify that x+y=y+x if x=5 and y=3/2

Answer 1

Answer:

Given:x= 5, y=3/2

To verify : x+y=y+x

LHS:

= x + y

= 5+3/2

= 10+3/2

= 13/2

RHS:

= y + x

= 3/2 + 5

= 3+10/2

= 13/2

LHS = RHS

Answer 2

Solution =

x = 5

y = 3/2

x + y = 5 + 3/2 =  5/1 + 3/2 = 10/2 + 3/2 = 13/2 =  6  1/2 = 6.5

LCM of 1 and 2 = 2

y + x = 3/2 + 5 = 3/2 +  10/2 =  13/2  =  6  1/2 = 6.5

Hence , verified .
