Given,

Equations: x2y3=0,3x2+2y3+10=0\dfrac{x}{2} - \dfrac{y}{3} = 0, \dfrac{3x}{2} + \dfrac{2y}{3} + 10 = 0

Solving equation x2y3=0\dfrac{x}{2} - \dfrac{y}{3} = 0,

3x2y6=03x2y=0×63x=2yx=2y3 ….(1)\Rightarrow \dfrac{3x - 2y}{6} = 0 \\[1em] \Rightarrow 3x - 2y = 0 \times 6 \\[1em] \Rightarrow 3x = 2y \\[1em] \Rightarrow x = \dfrac{2y}{3} \text{ ….(1)}

3x2+2y3+10=0 ….(2)\dfrac{3x}{2} + \dfrac{2y}{3} + 10 = 0 \text{ ….(2)}

Substituting value of x from equation (1) in (2), we get :

3(2y3)2+2y3+10=02y2+2y3+10=06y+4y+606=010y+60=010y=60y=6010=6.\Rightarrow \dfrac{3\Big(\dfrac{2y}{3}\Big)}{2} + \dfrac{2y}{3} + 10 = 0 \\[1em] \Rightarrow \dfrac{2y}{2} + \dfrac{2y}{3} + 10 = 0 \\[1em] \Rightarrow \dfrac{6y + 4y + 60}{6} = 0 \\[1em] \Rightarrow 10y + 60 = 0 \\[1em] \Rightarrow 10y = -60 \\[1em] \Rightarrow y = \dfrac{-60}{10} = -6.

Substituting value of y in equation (1), we get :

x=2y3x=2×(6)3x=123=4.\Rightarrow x = \dfrac{2y}{3} \\[1em] \Rightarrow x = \dfrac{2 \times (-6)}{3} \\[1em] \Rightarrow x = \dfrac{-12}{3} = -4.

Hence, option 4 is the correct option.
