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

Pete has 3 dollars less than what Linda has. If together has 81 dollars how much does each person have?
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

Pete: 39, Linda: 42

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose Pete has x dollars. If he has 3 dollars less than Linda, then Linda has 3+x dollars. Together, they have 81 dollars:

x+3+x=81

2x+3=81

2x=78

x=39

Since Pete has x dollars, and x=39, he has $39.

Linda has 3+x, which is 39+3 = $42

<em>I hope this helps! :)</em>
