hi,
Express the ratios in fractional form, that is
= ( cross- multiply )
y + 3 = k(y + 5) ← distribute
y + 3 = ky + 5k ( subtract ky from both sides )
y - ky + 3 = 5k ( subtract 3 from both sides )
y - ky = 5k - 3 ← factor out y from each term on the left side
y(1 - k) = 5k - 3 ← divide both sides by (1 - k)
y = 5k- 3
____
1 - k
