The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we start with the given equations: 1. \(\sqrt{\frac{x}{y}} + \sqrt{\frac{y}{x}} = \frac{5}{2}\) 2. \(x + y = 6\) ### Step 1: Simplify the first equation We can rewrite the first equation as follows: \[ \sqrt{\frac{x}{y}} + \sqrt{\frac{y}{x}} = \frac{5}{2} \] This can be expressed as: \[ \frac{\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{y}} + \frac{\sqrt{y}}{\sqrt{x}} = \frac{5}{2} \] ### Step 2: Find a common denominator To combine the fractions on the left side, we find a common denominator: \[ \frac{x + y}{\sqrt{xy}} = \frac{5}{2} \] ### Step 3: Substitute \(x + y\) From the second equation, we know \(x + y = 6\). Substitute this into the equation: \[ \frac{6}{\sqrt{xy}} = \frac{5}{2} \] ### Step 4: Cross-multiply to solve for \(\sqrt{xy}\) Cross-multiplying gives: \[ 6 \cdot 2 = 5 \sqrt{xy} \] This simplifies to: \[ 12 = 5 \sqrt{xy} \] ### Step 5: Solve for \(\sqrt{xy}\) Dividing both sides by 5: \[ \sqrt{xy} = \frac{12}{5} \] ### Step 6: Square both sides to find \(xy\) Squaring both sides results in: \[ xy = \left(\frac{12}{5}\right)^2 = \frac{144}{25} \] ### Step 7: Use the identity \(x^2 - (x+y)x + xy = 0\) We can use the identity \(x^2 - (x+y)x + xy = 0\) to form a quadratic equation: \[ x^2 - 6x + \frac{144}{25} = 0 \] ### Step 8: Multiply through by 25 to eliminate the fraction Multiplying the entire equation by 25 gives: \[ 25x^2 - 150x + 144 = 0 \] ### Step 9: Use the quadratic formula Using the quadratic formula \(x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}\): Here, \(a = 25\), \(b = -150\), and \(c = 144\). Calculating the discriminant: \[ b^2 - 4ac = (-150)^2 - 4 \cdot 25 \cdot 144 = 22500 - 14400 = 8100 \] Now, substituting into the quadratic formula: \[ x = \frac{150 \pm \sqrt{8100}}{50} \] ### Step 10: Calculate \(\sqrt{8100}\) Calculating \(\sqrt{8100}\): \[ \sqrt{8100} = 90 \] ### Step 11: Find the values of \(x\) Substituting back gives: \[ x = \frac{150 \pm 90}{50} \] Calculating the two possible values: 1. \(x = \frac{240}{50} = \frac{24}{5}\) 2. \(x = \frac{60}{50} = \frac{6}{5}\) ### Conclusion Thus, the possible values of \(x\) are \(\frac{24}{5}\) and \(\frac{6}{5}\).
