Question 1 of 5
1. Question
(x+y) : (x-y)=3:5 and xy = positive imply that
Correct
Ans: d
Given that, (x+y) : (x-y) = 3:5
(x+y)/(x-y) = 3/5
Applying componendo and dividend rule, we get
[(x+y)+(x-y)]/[(x+y)-(x-y)] = (3+5)/(3-5)
2x/2y = 8/-2
x/y = -4
∴x= -4y
But it is given, xy = Positive
∴-4yxy = Positive
-4y2 = Poitive, which is not possible.
Hence, no real solution for x and y exist.
