Question 363366: I need help on knowing how to solve linear systems in form of fractions.
the problem: (1/x+2) + (2/y+1) = 1
(4/x+2) + (9/y+1) = 13/3
i attempted the first equation
i multiplied the left side by (x+2) (y+1) and the right side as well.
so i got y+1+2x+4=xy+x+2y+2
then i subtracted x and y from both sides
5+x=xy+y+2
to get
xy+y-x-3=o
I do not know if this is correct, so i can't go on solving the problem because i don't know. Truthfully, im guessing at this point.
