The correct Answer is:
To solve the system of equations given by \[ \frac{2x + 5y}{xy} = 6 \] and \[ \frac{4x - 5y}{xy} + 3 = 0, \] we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rewrite the equations First, we can rewrite the first equation by multiplying both sides by \(xy\): \[ 2x + 5y = 6xy \tag{1} \] For the second equation, we can isolate the fraction: \[ \frac{4x - 5y}{xy} = -3 \] Now, multiply both sides by \(xy\): \[ 4x - 5y = -3xy \tag{2} \] ### Step 2: Rearranging the equations Now we have two equations: 1. \(2x + 5y = 6xy\) 2. \(4x - 5y = -3xy\) We can rearrange both equations to express them in standard form: From equation (1): \[ 6xy - 2x - 5y = 0 \tag{3} \] From equation (2): \[ 4x + 3xy - 5y = 0 \tag{4} \] ### Step 3: Solve the equations Now we will solve equations (3) and (4) simultaneously. From equation (3): \[ 6xy - 2x - 5y = 0 \] We can express \(y\) in terms of \(x\): \[ 6xy = 2x + 5y \] Rearranging gives: \[ 6xy - 5y = 2x \] Factoring out \(y\): \[ y(6x - 5) = 2x \] Thus, \[ y = \frac{2x}{6x - 5} \tag{5} \] Now substitute equation (5) into equation (4): \[ 4x + 3x\left(\frac{2x}{6x - 5}\right) - 5\left(\frac{2x}{6x - 5}\right) = 0 \] ### Step 4: Simplifying the equation Multiply through by \(6x - 5\) to eliminate the denominator: \[ 4x(6x - 5) + 3(2x)(x) - 5(2x) = 0 \] Expanding this gives: \[ 24x^2 - 20x + 6x^2 - 10x = 0 \] Combining like terms: \[ 30x^2 - 30x = 0 \] Factoring out \(30x\): \[ 30x(x - 1) = 0 \] Thus, \(x = 0\) or \(x = 1\). Since \(x \neq 0\), we have: \[ x = 1 \] ### Step 5: Finding \(y\) Now substitute \(x = 1\) back into equation (5): \[ y = \frac{2(1)}{6(1) - 5} = \frac{2}{1} = 2 \] ### Conclusion The solution to the system of equations is: \[ (x, y) = (1, 2) \]
