I will assume 'xx' as one variable, in other words, it isn't equal to x²:

⇒ its just 'xx'

For question 32, let's solve:


(xx)/(9)=(2)/(3) \\3xx=9*2\\3xx = 18\\xx=6 --> choice (c)

For question 33, let's solve:


(3)/(xx) =(5)/(xx-2)\\3(xx-2)=5*xx\\3xx-6=5xx\\5xx-3xx=-6\\2xx=-6\\xx=-3--> choice (b)

Answers:

  • For question 32: (c)
  • For question 33: (b)

Hope that helps!
