4A = 5B.

For finding the ratio A to B take B to the left side of the equation and 4 to the right side.

4 X A = 5 X B ( 4 multiplied by A = 5 multiplied by B)

When any number goes to the other side you need to change the sign from + to - or / to X and vice versa. So when we take B to the left side it carries the / sign. Similarly with 4 )

A/B = 5/4 ( The ratio of A to B )

What is the order pair for 4a - 5b equals 7 and 4a plus 5b equals 17?

Simultaneous Equations 4a - 5b = 7 4a + 5b = 17 Add the two , this will eliminate 'b' 8a = 24 Divide both sides by '8' a = 3 When a= 3 , substitute into eityher equation for 'b'. 4(3) + 5b = 17 12 + 5b = 17 5b = 17 - 12 = 5 5b = Divide both sides by '5'. Hence 'b = 1'.


What is a ratio of 4 to 5?

A ratio of 4 to 5 is equivelant to saying there are "4 of object A's for every 5 object B's". For example, there may be a ratio of 4 to 5 of red and black marbles in a bag. For every 4 red marbles are in the bag, there are 5 black marbles. Therefore, if there were 12 red marbes in a bag, there would be 15 black marbles in the bag. A= object A; B= object B 4A=5B; A=5B/4 or B=4A/5
