Answer to Problem 43WE

The required value of ratio is a:b=3:2

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

It is given 4a9b4a=a2bb

Given 4a9b4a=a2bb

Dividing numerator and denominator by b on both sides

  4a9bb4ab=a2bbbb4ab94ab=ab21

Let ab=t and solving for t

  4t94t=t24t9=4t28t4t212t+9=0

Using quadratic formula

  t=12±1441448=12±08=32

The required value of ratio is a:b=3:2
