Solve for x and y 3a/x - 2b/y + 5 = 0 a/x + 3b/y - 2 = 0

Answers (1)

 3a/x - 2b/y + 5 = 0 ....(i)

a/x + 3b/y - 2 = 0 ....(ii)

Assume a/x = p and b/y = q 

3p - 2q + 5 = 0 ...(iii)

p + 3q -2 = 0 ....(iv)

3 x Equation (iv) - Equation (iii)

3p + 9q - 6 - 3p + 2q - 5 = 0

11q = 11

q = 1  => p =-1 

a/x= -1 =>  x = -a 

b/y = 1  => y = b
