Question 244060
<font face="Garamond" size="+2">


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ x\ +\ y\ = 17]


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \frac{x}{y}\ =\ 3\ +\ \frac{1}{y}]


Multiply the second equation by *[tex \Large y]


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ x\ = 3y\ + 1]


Substitute back into the first equation:


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 3y\ +\ 1\ +\ y\ =\ 17]


Solve for *[tex \Large y] and then calculate *[tex \Large x] using the first equation.
