Yesssss! It's another Thursday, therefore, it's time again for the 'question of the week'. If you missed out on last week's freebies, why not give this a try...

THE QUESTION:

A binary operation * is defined on the set R, of real numbers by

x * y = x2 / (x + y), where x,y є R

(i)                  Evaluate   (2*3) * 5


(ii)                If (x + 1) * (x + 2) = 1/3, find the value of x.

Okay, let's get this started!!!
