10x^2 −9xy+2y^2 =0  10x^2 −5xy−4xy+2y^2 =0  5x(2x−y)−2y(2x−y)=0  (2x−y)(5x−2y)=0  when  2x−y=0→2x=y  (x/y)=(1/2)   x:y=1:2  when   5x−2y=0     5x=2y  (x/y)=(2/5)    x:y=2:5

$$\mathrm{10}{x}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{9}{xy}+\mathrm{2}{y}^{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\mathrm{10}{x}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{5}{xy}−\mathrm{4}{xy}+\mathrm{2}{y}^{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\mathrm{5}{x}\left(\mathrm{2}{x}−{y}\right)−\mathrm{2}{y}\left(\mathrm{2}{x}−{y}\right)=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\left(\mathrm{2}{x}−{y}\right)\left(\mathrm{5}{x}−\mathrm{2}{y}\right)=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$${when}\:\:\mathrm{2}{x}−{y}=\mathrm{0}\rightarrow\mathrm{2}{x}={y} \\ $$$$\frac{{x}}{{y}}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}\:\:\:{x}:{y}=\mathrm{1}:\mathrm{2} \\ $$$${when}\:\:\:\mathrm{5}{x}−\mathrm{2}{y}=\mathrm{0}\:\:\:\:\:\mathrm{5}{x}=\mathrm{2}{y} \\ $$$$\frac{{x}}{{y}}=\frac{\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{5}}\:\:\:\:{x}:{y}=\mathrm{2}:\mathrm{5} \\ $$

Dividing throughout by y^2 ,  10k^2 −9k+2=0, where k=(x/y)  ⇒k=((9±(√(81−80)))/(20))  ⇒k=((9±1)/(20))  ⇒k=(1/2),(2/5)

$${Dividing}\:{throughout}\:{by}\:{y}^{\mathrm{2}} , \\ $$$$\mathrm{10}{k}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{9}{k}+\mathrm{2}=\mathrm{0},\:{where}\:{k}=\frac{{x}}{{y}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{k}=\frac{\mathrm{9}\pm\sqrt{\mathrm{81}−\mathrm{80}}}{\mathrm{20}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{k}=\frac{\mathrm{9}\pm\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{20}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{k}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}},\frac{\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{5}} \\ $$

10x^2 −9xy+2y^2 =0  (x/y)=(r/1) ⇒ x=ry  y^2 (10r^2 −9r+2)=0  ⇒ r=(2/5) ∨ r=(1/2)  ⇒ (x/y)=(2/5) ∨ (x/y)=(1/2)

$$\mathrm{10}{x}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{9}{xy}+\mathrm{2}{y}^{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\frac{{x}}{{y}}=\frac{{r}}{\mathrm{1}}\:\Rightarrow\:{x}={ry} \\ $$$${y}^{\mathrm{2}} \left(\mathrm{10}{r}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{9}{r}+\mathrm{2}\right)=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:{r}=\frac{\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{5}}\:\vee\:{r}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:\frac{{x}}{{y}}=\frac{\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{5}}\:\vee\:\frac{{x}}{{y}}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$
