Answer:

a. (-1/2, 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The coefficients of x have opposite signs, so the x-terms can be eliminated by adding the two equations.

(2y -12x) +(3y +12x) = (16) +(9)

5y = 25 . . . . . . simplify

y = 5 . . . . . . . . .divide by 5

This matches only answer choice A.

<em>Check</em>

The other part of answer choice A is x = -1/2. We can test this to make sure it works:

2(5) -12(-1/2) = 16

10 + 6 = 16 . . . . . . true, the selected answer works OK

If x + y = 12 and xy = -5, calculate the value of 1/x + 1/y.

Paul [167]

$\dfrac{1}{x}+\dfrac{1}{y}=\dfrac{y}{xy}+\dfrac{x}{xy}=\dfrac{x+y}{xy}=\dfrac{12}{-5}=-\dfrac{12}{5}=-2,4$
