Solve the simultaneous equations \(\frac{2}{x} - {\frac{3}{y}}\) = 2, \(\frac{4}{x} + {\frac{3}{y}}\) = 10

  • A. x = \(\frac{3}{2}\), y = \(\frac{3}{2}\)
  • B. x = \(\frac{1}{2}\), y = \(\frac{3}{2}\)
  • C. x = \(\frac{-1}{2}\), y = \(\frac{-3}{2}\)
  • D. x = \(\frac{1}{2}\), y = \(\frac{3}{2}\)

Correct Answer: B. x = \(\frac{1}{2}\), y = \(\frac{3}{2}\)
