Question

Neither x nor y is equal to 0.

xy = 4y/x

Quantity A: x

Quantity B: 2

Tap to reveal answer

Answer

Given xy = 4y/x and x and y not 0.

Therefore you are able to divide both sides by 'y' such that:

x = 4/x

Multiply both sides by x:

x2 = 4 or x = +2 or –2.

Because of the fact that x could equal –2, the relationship cannot be determined from the information given.
