\n" ); document.write( "The ratio between terms is constant:

\n" ); document.write( "\"6%2F%283-x%29=%287-5x%29%2F6\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%287-5x%29%283-x%29=36\"

\n" ); document.write( "This will give you a quadratic equation; it will have two solutions, so there will be two sets of answers to the problem.

\n" ); document.write( "The quadratic will factor; but if you aren't good at factoring quadratics, you can go straight to the quadratic formula.
