Question 711279
{{{(b-a)/ay=(b^2-a^2)/bx}}}
You want to solve this for x/y.
--------------------
Multiply each side of the equation by x:
{{{(x(b-a))/ay=(b^2-a^2)/b}}}
Multiply each side of the equation by a:
{{{(x(b-a))/y=(a(b^2-a^2))/b}}}
Divide each side of the equation by (b-a):
{{{highlight(x/y=(a(b^2-a^2))/(b(b-a)))}}}
