Solve x=1/t,y=t-1/ttext{when}t=2

$$x = \frac { 1 } { t } , y = t - \frac { 1 } { t } \text { when } t = 2$$

Solve for x, t, y

$$x=\frac{1}{2}=0.5$$

$$y = \frac{3}{2} = 1\frac{1}{2} = 1.5$$

$$t=2$$

Solution Steps

Consider the first equation. Insert the known values of variables into the equation.

$$x=\frac{1}{2}$$

Consider the second equation. Insert the known values of variables into the equation.

$$y=2-\frac{1}{2}$$

Subtract \frac{1}{2} from 2 to get \frac{3}{2}.

$$y=\frac{3}{2}$$

The system is now solved.

$$x=\frac{1}{2} t=2 y=\frac{3}{2}$$
