Solve for x and y :
$\frac{1}{2(x+2 y)}+\frac{5}{3(3 x-2 y)}=-\frac{3}{2}$,
$\frac{1}{4(x+2 y)}-\frac{3}{5(3 x-2 y)}=\frac{61}{60}$ where $\mathrm{x}+2 \mathrm{y} \neq 0$ and $3 \mathrm{x}-2 \mathrm{y} \neq 0$

Solution: The given equations are $\begin{array}{l} \frac{1}{2(x+2 y)}+\frac{5}{3(3 x-2 y)}=-\frac{3}{2}\dots \dots(i) \\ \frac{1}{4(x+2 y)}-\frac{3}{5(3 x-2 y)}=\frac{61}{60}\dots \dots(ii)...
