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
The coordinates of the point intersection of lines (-1, -1)
If you want solve:
y = -2x - 3, y = 3x + 2
-2x - 3 = 3x + 2 |+3
-2x = 3x + 5 |-3x
-5x = 5 |:(-5)
x = -1
Put the value of x to the first equation:
y = (-2)(-1) - 3 = 2 - 3 = -1
x = -1, y = -1
