Question

Solve for x and y in the following question.

2/(x + 2y) + 1/(2x - y) + 5/9 = 0, 9/(x + 2y) + 6/(2x - y) + 4 = 0

(A) x = 1,y = 2

(B) x = 2,y = 1

(C) x = 2,y = 1/2

(D) x = 1/2, y = 2

Answer 1

The correct option is: (D) x = 1/2, y = 2

Explanation:

Thus equations would reduce to

Solving (3) and (4), we get y = 2 and x = 1/2
