SOLUTION: Find the solution sets of the following equation: x+1/y+1=2 2x+1/2y+1=1/3

Question 1749: Find the solution sets of the following equation: x+1/y+1=2
2x+1/2y+1=1/3

equation 1 re-arranges to and then to and finally to .
equation 2 re-arranges to and then to and finally to .
We now have a set of simulataneous linear equations...subtract them, to get rid of the -2y term. This gives
Substitute this into one of the 2 equations gives
Now check in the other equation, that these 2 values do indeed equal the right hand side number...they do, but check it yourself.
