Question

What is y:x if 4x-6y=7x+2y
Please Answer Quick!

Answer 1

x = 5/2

y = 1/2

Answer 2

`{ \qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}}`

`\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: 4x - 6y = 7x + 2y`

`\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: 4x - 7x = 2y + 6y`

`\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: 8y = - 3x`

`\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: y = - (3)/(8) x`

`\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: (y)/(x) = - (3)/(8)`

`\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: {y}:{x} = - {3}:{8}`

That's our required ratio ~
