4.5*10^3/9*10^7=4.5/9*10^3*10^7=0.5*10^3*10^7. a^b*a^c=a^(b+c), so 10^3*10^7=10^(3+7)=10^10. 0.5*10^10=5*10^9, since we want to write in scientific notation where the leading number is bigger than one and smaller than 10.

Which expression is equivalent to the following complex fraction?

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

$\dfrac{2(y-2x)}{3y-5x}$

Step-by-step explanation:

When you simplify the numerator and the denominator, you find they both have denominators of xy. So, the ratio of those is the ratio of their numerators.

$\dfrac{\dfrac{2}{x}-\dfrac{4}{y}}{\dfrac{-5}{y}+\dfrac{3}{x}}=\dfrac{\left(\dfrac{2y-4x}{xy}\right)}{\left(\dfrac{-5x+3y}{xy}\right)}=\dfrac{2y-4x}{-5x+3y}\\\\=\boxed{\dfrac{2(y-2x)}{3y-5x}}$
