The correct Answer is:
To solve the system of equations given by \( x - y = 0.9 \) and \( \frac{11}{2(x+y)} = 10.5 \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rewrite the equations We have two equations: 1. \( x - y = 0.9 \) (Equation 1) 2. \( \frac{11}{2(x+y)} = 10.5 \) (Equation 2) ### Step 2: Simplify Equation 2 To eliminate the fraction in Equation 2, we can multiply both sides by \( 2(x+y) \): \[ 11 = 10.5 \cdot 2(x+y) \] This simplifies to: \[ 11 = 21(x+y) \] Now, divide both sides by 21: \[ x + y = \frac{11}{21} \quad \text{(Equation 3)} \] ### Step 3: Solve the system of equations Now we have: 1. \( x - y = 0.9 \) (Equation 1) 2. \( x + y = \frac{11}{21} \) (Equation 3) We can add Equation 1 and Equation 3 to eliminate \( y \): \[ (x - y) + (x + y) = 0.9 + \frac{11}{21} \] This simplifies to: \[ 2x = 0.9 + \frac{11}{21} \] ### Step 4: Find a common denominator To add \( 0.9 \) and \( \frac{11}{21} \), we convert \( 0.9 \) to a fraction: \[ 0.9 = \frac{9}{10} \] Now, we need a common denominator for \( \frac{9}{10} \) and \( \frac{11}{21} \). The least common multiple of 10 and 21 is 210. Convert \( \frac{9}{10} \): \[ \frac{9}{10} = \frac{9 \times 21}{10 \times 21} = \frac{189}{210} \] Convert \( \frac{11}{21} \): \[ \frac{11}{21} = \frac{11 \times 10}{21 \times 10} = \frac{110}{210} \] Now add them: \[ 2x = \frac{189}{210} + \frac{110}{210} = \frac{299}{210} \] ### Step 5: Solve for \( x \) Now divide both sides by 2: \[ x = \frac{299}{420} \] ### Step 6: Substitute \( x \) back to find \( y \) Now substitute \( x \) back into Equation 1: \[ \frac{299}{420} - y = 0.9 \] Convert \( 0.9 \) to a fraction: \[ 0.9 = \frac{9}{10} = \frac{378}{420} \] Now we have: \[ \frac{299}{420} - y = \frac{378}{420} \] Rearranging gives: \[ y = \frac{299}{420} - \frac{378}{420} = -\frac{79}{420} \] ### Final Solution Thus, the solutions are: \[ x = \frac{299}{420}, \quad y = -\frac{79}{420} \] ---
