Solve for x and y: x+1/2 + y-1/3=8, x-1/3+y+1/2=9 Share with your friends Share 23 Manbar Singh answered this The given system of equations is : x+12 + y-13 = 8⇒3x+3+2y-2 = 48⇒3x + 2y = 47 ....1 x-13 + y+12 = 9⇒2x-2+3y+3 = 54⇒2x + 3y = 53 ......2Adding 1 and 2, we get5x + 5y = 100⇒x + y = 20 .....3Subtracting 2 from 1, we getx - y = -6 .....4Adding 3 and 4, we get2x = 14⇒x = 142 = 7Put x = 7 in 3, we get7 + y = 20⇒y = 13So, x = 7; y = 13 is the solution. 88 View Full Answer
