4y - 5x = 9
x = 4y + 11
We can substitute this value of x in the first equation:
4y - 5(4y+11) = 9
4y - 20y - 55 = 9
16y = -64
y = -4
x = -16 + 11
x = -5
Answer:
The two ratios are equivalent.
Step-by-step explanation:
Reduce both fractions:
6/21 = 2/7 [Take out 3 from both sides]
8/28 = 2/7 [Take out 4 from both sides]
2/7 = 2/7
