Answer:
The sum of reciprocals is 2/3.
You don't need complex numbers to solve this, but if you try to find a and b you will need complex numbers.
Step-by-step explanation:
a+b = 2
a*b = 3
1/a + 1/b = x
(a*b)*(1/a + 1/b) = (a*b)x
b + a = (a*b)(x)
2 = 3x
x = 2/3
b = 2 - a
a*(2 - a) = 3
-a^2 + 2a = 3
-a^2 + 2a - 3 = 0
a^2 - 2a + 3 = 0
let's solve the quadratic equation
a^2 - 2a + 3 = a^2 - 2a + 1 + 2 = (a - 1)^2 + 2 = 0
(a - 1)^2 = -2

these options correspond to a and b from the original question.

Answer:
3x + y = -16
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>Explanation:-</em></u>
Given a system of equations are
5x+6y =-5
- 2x - 5y = -11
multiply '1' and Adding two system of equtions
+ 1 (5x + 6y = -5)
+ 1 (<u> -2x - 5y = -11)</u>
<u> 3x + y = -16 </u>
<u>Final answer:-</u>
5x + 6y = -5
<u> -2x - 5y = -11</u>
<u> 3x + y = -16 </u>
