Set up a proportion: x/y = x/y
(.75)/(15) = (x)/(25)
Then cross multiply:
(.75)(25) = (15)(x)
18.75 = 15x
x = 1.25 or (5/4)
There you go :)

Hey there Mejia021274,
1) Independent systems have exactly one solution:
x + y = 1
x - y = 3
x = 2, y = -1
2) Inconsistent systems have no solutions :
5x + y = 6
5x + y = 10
There is no solution as 5x + y cannot be equal to 6 and 10
3) Consistent systems have a lot of solutions:
x+y = 5
<span>2x+2y = 10 </span>
<span>A few solutions to this system are (1,4), (2,3), (3,2), (4,1), (5,0), and so on.
</span>
Hope this helps :))
