Solve the proportion for y: 15/2= 75/7

Answer 1

To solve the proportion \(\frac{15}{2}=\frac{75}{7}\) for y, we can cross-multiply and solve for y.

Cross-multiplying gives us \(15 \cdot 7 = 2 \cdot 75\).

Simplifying both sides gives us \(105 = 150\).

Since this equation is not true, there is no solution for y in this proportion.
