Answer:
x : y = 9 : 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
3x - y : x + 2y = 2 : 5
Express the ratio in fractional form, that is
=
( cross- multiply )
5(3x - y) = 2(x + 2y) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides )
15x - 5y = 2x + 4y ( subtract 2x from both sides )
13x - 5y = 4y ( add 5y to both sides )
13x = 9y ( divide both sides by 13 )
x = y ( divide both sides by y )
=
, that is
x : y = 9 : 13
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You can do long division, which is very very hard to show with typing on a keyboard. You essentially want to divide the leading coefficient for each term. Ill try my best to explain it.
Do . Write 2x^2 down. Now multiply (x - 3) by it. Then subtract it from the trinomial.
Now do . Write that down next to your 2x^2. Multiply 3x by (x - 3) to get:
Your final step is to do . Write this -2 next to your other two parts
Multiply -2 by (x - 3) to get:
Our remainder is 0 so that means (x - 3) goes into that trinomial exactly:
times
