Solve for x and y.


4^(x+y) = 64


2^(2x-y) = 128


Ax = 10/3, y = -1/3
Bx = -10/3, y = -1/3

\(4^{x+y}=64\Rightarrow x+y=3\)
\(2^{2x-y}=128\Rightarrow 2x-y=7\)

So we have
\(x+y=3\)
\(2x-y=7\)
Solve for \(x\):
\(3x=10\)
\(\Rightarrow x=\frac{10}{3}\)

Plug \(x\) into one of the equations:
\(\frac{10}{3}+y=3\)
\(\Rightarrow y=-\frac{1}{3}\)

So the answer is
\(x=\frac{10}{3}, y=-\frac{1}{3}\)

4^10/3 + -1/3 will equal to 64
2^(2*10/3-1/3) will equal to 128

Your final answer is A. x = 10/3, y = -1/3
