Question

XY= 5/6 AND X+Y=17/6

FIND THE VALUES OF X&Y

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

XY=5/6

Y= 5/6/X

= 5X/6-------(equation-(1))

X+Y= 17/6

substitute equation 1 in the place of Y

X+5X/6= 17/6

(6X+5X)/6=17/6

11X/6=17/6

6 is cancelled on both sides

11X=17

X=17/11

now keep X= 17/11 in XY= 5/6

XY=5/6

17/11(Y)=5/6

Y= 5/6×11/17

Y= 55/102

hope this helps you

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

x=5/6y

5/6y + y=17/6

(5+6y^2)/6y=17/6

5+6y^2 =17y

so,

6y^2 - 17y +5 =0

3y(2y - 5)-(2y - 5)=0

(3y - 1)(2y -5)=0

y=1/3 or y=5/2
