To solve the equations \( \frac{7}{x} + \frac{8}{y} = 2 \) and \( \frac{2}{x} + \frac{12}{y} = 20 \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Substitute Variables Let \( v = \frac{1}{x} \) and \( u = \frac{1}{y} \). Then we can rewrite the equations as: 1. \( 7v + 8u = 2 \) (Equation 1) 2. \( 2v + 12u = 20 \) (Equation 2) ### Step 2: Elimination Method ...
