Question

$$\sqrt{2x+2y=234}; x+3y=162$$

Answer

x=162-(9*(155-sqrt(167)*IM))/4,162-(9*(155+sqrt(167)*IM))/4;y=(3*(155-sqrt(167)*IM))/4,(3*(155+sqrt(167)*IM))/4

Solution


Solve for \(x\) in \(x+3y=162\).
\[x=162-3y\]
Substitute \(x=162-3y\) into \(\sqrt{2x}+2y=234\).
\[\sqrt{6(54-y)}+2y=234\]
Solve for \(y\) in \(\sqrt{6(54-y)}+2y=234\).
\[y=\frac{3(155-\sqrt{167}\imath )}{4},\frac{3(155+\sqrt{167}\imath )}{4}\]
Substitute \(y=\frac{3(155-\sqrt{167}\imath )}{4},\frac{3(155+\sqrt{167}\imath )}{4}\) into \(x=162-3y\).
\[x=162-\frac{9(155-\sqrt{167}\imath )}{4},162-\frac{9(155+\sqrt{167}\imath )}{4}\]
Therefore,
\[\begin{aligned}&x=162-\frac{9(155-\sqrt{167}\imath )}{4},162-\frac{9(155+\sqrt{167}\imath )}{4}\\&y=\frac{3(155-\sqrt{167}\imath )}{4},\frac{3(155+\sqrt{167}\imath )}{4}\end{aligned}\]
