1/2x+1/3y=2 1/3x+1/2y=13/6 (x is not equal to 0, y is not equal to 0)
by substitution method,
step by step

x=2

y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

x/2+y/3=2   so      

3x/6+2y/6=12/6

then multiply by 6

3x+2y=12    

equation number 2

x/3+y/2=13/6

2x/6+3y/6=13/6

multiply by 6

2x+3y=13

so the system is now

3x+2y=12  

2x+3y=13

from the first equation 2y=12-3x,  y=6 -  3x/2

then put  y in  the second equation

2x+3*(6-3x/2)=13

2x+18-9x/2=13

2x-9x/2=13-18

4x/2-9x/2=-5

-5x/2=-5

*(-1/5)    *(-1/5)

x/2=1

*2    *2

x=2

so y=6-3*2/2=6-3

y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

(1/2x)+(1/3y) = 2 (1)

(1/3x)+(1/2y) = 13/6(2)

Put 1/x = a and 1/y = b then

(1) becomes

(a/2 )+( b/3) = 2

⇛ (3a+2b)/6 = 2

⇛ 3a+2b = 2×6

⇛ 3a+2b = 12 (3)

(2) becomes

(a/3)+(b/2)=13/6

⇛ (2a+3b)/6 = 13/6

⇛ 2a+3b=13(4)

On adding (3)&(4) then

3a+2b=12

2a+3b=13

(+)

5a+5b = 25

⇛ 5a+5b = 25

⇛ 5(a+b)=25

⇛ a+b=25/5

⇛ a+b=5 (5)

On subtracting (3) from (4)

2a+3b=13

3a+2b=12

(-)

-a+b = 1

⇛ -a+b = 1

⇛ b = 1+a (6)

On Substituting the value of b in (5) then

a+1+a = 5

⇛2a+1 = 5

⇛ 2a = 5-1

⇛ 2a = 4

⇛ a = 4/2

⇛ a = 2

On Substituting the value of a in (6) then

b = 1+2

b = 3

Now,

a = 2

⇛ 1/x=2

⇛ “x” = 1/2

and

b= 3

⇛ 1/y = 3

⇛“y” = 1/3

- Hence, the value of x and y with be 1/2 and 1/3 respectively.

The solution for the given problem is (1/2,1/3)

Check:-

If x = 1/2 and y = 1/3 then

LHS = (1/2x)+(1/3y)

= 1/2(1/2)+1/3(1/3)

= 1/(2/2)+1/(3/3)

= (1/1)+(1/1)

= 1+1

=2

= RHS

LHS=RHS is true

and

LHS=(1/3x)+(1/2y)

⇛ 1/3(1/2)+ 1/2(1/3)

⇛ 1/(3/2)+1/(2/3)

⇛ (2/3)+(3/2)

⇛ (4+9)/6

⇛ 13/6

⇛ RHS

LHS = RHS is true
