a) x/y = 3/4
x + y = 21
y = 21 - x y = 21 - x
x/21 - x = 3/4 y = 21 - 9
4x = 63 - 3x y = 12
4x + 3x = 63
7x = 63
x = 63/7
x = 9
b) x/2 = y/3
x + y = 40
y = 40 - x y = 40 - 16
x/2 = y/3 y = 24
x/2 = 40 - x/3
3x = 80 - 2x
3x + 2x = 80
5x = 80
x = 80/5
x = 16
x/y = 5/4
x + y = 18
y = 18 - x y = 18 - x
x/18 - x = 5/4 y = 18 - 10
4x = 90 - 5x y = 8
4x + 5x = 90
9x = 90
x = 90/9
x = 10
x + y = 42
y = 42 - x y = 42 - x
x/y = 5/9 y = 42 - 15
x/42 - x = 5/9 y = 27
9x = 210 - 5x
9x + 5x = 210
14x = 210
x = 210/14
x = 15
