The correct Answer is:
To solve the given system of equations: 1. \(\frac{x}{2} + y = 0.8\) (Equation 1) 2. \(\frac{7}{x + \frac{y}{2}} = 10\) (Equation 2) Let's follow the steps to find the values of \(x\) and \(y\). ### Step 1: Rewrite the equations We start with the two equations: 1. \(\frac{x}{2} + y = 0.8\) 2. \(\frac{7}{x + \frac{y}{2}} = 10\) ### Step 2: Simplify Equation 2 To simplify Equation 2, we can multiply both sides by \((x + \frac{y}{2})\): \[ 7 = 10 \left(x + \frac{y}{2}\right) \] Expanding this gives: \[ 7 = 10x + 5y \] Rearranging this, we get: \[ 10x + 5y = 7 \quad \text{(Equation 2)} \] ### Step 3: Multiply Equation 1 by 10 Next, we can multiply Equation 1 by 10 to eliminate the fraction: \[ 10 \left(\frac{x}{2} + y\right) = 10 \cdot 0.8 \] This simplifies to: \[ 5x + 10y = 8 \quad \text{(Equation 1)} \] ### Step 4: Set up the system of equations Now we have the following system of equations: 1. \(5x + 10y = 8\) (Equation 1) 2. \(10x + 5y = 7\) (Equation 2) ### Step 5: Solve the system of equations We can solve these equations by elimination. Let's multiply Equation 1 by 2: \[ 2(5x + 10y) = 2 \cdot 8 \] This gives us: \[ 10x + 20y = 16 \quad \text{(Equation 3)} \] Now we have: 1. \(10x + 20y = 16\) (Equation 3) 2. \(10x + 5y = 7\) (Equation 2) ### Step 6: Subtract Equation 2 from Equation 3 Now we subtract Equation 2 from Equation 3: \[ (10x + 20y) - (10x + 5y) = 16 - 7 \] This simplifies to: \[ 15y = 9 \] Dividing both sides by 15 gives: \[ y = \frac{9}{15} = \frac{3}{5} = 0.6 \] ### Step 7: Substitute \(y\) back to find \(x\) Now we substitute \(y = \frac{3}{5}\) back into Equation 1: \[ 5x + 10\left(\frac{3}{5}\right) = 8 \] This simplifies to: \[ 5x + 6 = 8 \] Subtracting 6 from both sides gives: \[ 5x = 2 \] Dividing both sides by 5 gives: \[ x = \frac{2}{5} = 0.4 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the solution to the system of equations is: \[ x = 0.4, \quad y = 0.6 \]
