3/5 is greater than 1/4 and if u dont trust me then look at a graph
first you need to find the slope of he current equation by changing it to y=mx+b
3x-2y=9 subtract 3x from both sides
-2y=-3x+9 divide both sides by -2
y+3/2x-9/2 Your slope of the existing is 3/2 or 1 1/2
a perpendicular line has the opposite reciprocal slope so 3/2 would be -2/3
-3 is your y intercept. now you can make your equation
y=-2/3x-3
Use a calculator it’s 117
Well, your ratio given is 18 to 4. so multiply both numbers (18 and 4) by some number and you will have an equivalent ratio.
example: if you had 2 times as many people, then an equivalent ratio would be 18*2 to 4*2 = 36 to 8
