Dear Student
Given, √2 x + √3 y = 0 and √3 x - √8 y = 0 are the two equations. From 1st equation, we get, x = - (√3/√2)y __________________(1) Putting the value of x in the given second equation to get, √3(-√3/√2)y - √8y = 0 ⇒ (-3/√2)y- √8 y = 0 ⇒ y = 0
Now, substitute the value of y in equation (1), we get, x = 0 Therefore, x = 0 and y = 0 is required solution.
