Answer:

\large\boxed{(x+y)^2:(x-y)^2=49}

Step-by-step explanation:

3x=4y\qquad\text{subtract}\ 3y\ \text{from both sides}\\\\3x-3y=y\qquad\text{distributive}\\\\3(x-y)=y\qquad\text{divide both sides by 3}\\\\x-y=\dfrac{y}{3}\qquad(*)\\------------------\\3x=4y\qquad\text{add}\ 3y\ \text{to both sides}\\\\3x+3y=7y\qquad\text{distributive}\\\\3(x+y)=7y\qquad\text{divide both sides by 3}\\\\x+y=\dfrac{7y}{3}\qquad(**)\\------------------

(x+y)^2:(x-y)^2=\dfrac{(x+y)^2}{(x-y)^2}\qquad\text{use}\ \left(\dfrac{a}{b}\right)^n=\dfrac{a^n}{b^n}\\\\=\left(\dfrac{x+y}{x-y}\right)^2\qquad\text{substitute}\ (*)\ \text{and}\ (**)\\\\=\left(\dfrac{\frac{7y}{3}}{\frac{y}{3}}\right)^2=\left(\dfrac{7y}{3}\cdot\dfrac{3}{y}\right)^2\qquad\text{cancel}\ 3\ \text{and}\ y\\\\=(7)^2=49

-3x+5y=-9 and 4x+8y=12
insens350 [35]

-3x + 5y = -9

4x + 8y = 12

Simplify the second,

x + 2y = 3

Times three,

3x + 6y = 9

Add to the first equation,

11y = 0

y = 0

-3x + 5(0) = -9

x = 3

Answer: x=3, y=0
