Question

If ay=bx,
Then can we say that a=b and x=y?

Answer 1

Answer:

this two condition is only possible if only one of them is right.

this way we cannot say this.

Answer 2

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

$ay = bx \\ \\ \frac{a}{b} = \frac{x}{y} \\ \\ a = kx \\ \\ b = ky \\ \\ k = 1 \\ \\ is \: one \: among \: the \: infinite \: solution \\ \\ for \: all \: k \: belonging \: to \: the \: set \: of \: rational \: numbers \\ \\ a = 2x \\ \\ b = 2y \\ \\ a = - 2x \\ \\ b = - 2y \\ \\ a = 3x \\ \\ b = 3x \\ \\ and \: so \: on$

a = b and x = y

May not be the solution in every case.

hope it helps.
