Answer:
5.5, 4.333 or 13/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Use substitution method.
Y=1/3x+2 :))))))))))))))))))))))))
19 and 42 are coprime, so we can use the CRT right away. Start with
Taken mod 42, we're left with a remainder of 19. Notice that
so we need to multiply the first term by 3 to get the remainder we want.
Next, taken mod 19, we're left with a remainder of 4. Notice that
so we need to multiply the second term by 6.
Then by the CRT, we have
so that any solution of the form is a solution to this system.
We will set each parentheses equal to 0
x - 4 = 0
x = 4
-5x + 1 = 0
x = 1/5
The lesser value will be 1/5
The greater value will be 4
