The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we start with the given equation: \[ \frac{7m + 2n}{7m - 2n} = \frac{5}{3} \] ### Step 1: Cross-multiply the proportions Cross-multiplying gives us: \[ 3(7m + 2n) = 5(7m - 2n) \] ### Step 2: Expand both sides Expanding both sides yields: \[ 21m + 6n = 35m - 10n \] ### Step 3: Rearrange the equation Rearranging the equation to bring all terms involving \(m\) on one side and all terms involving \(n\) on the other side gives: \[ 21m - 35m = -10n - 6n \] This simplifies to: \[ -14m = -16n \] ### Step 4: Simplify the equation Dividing both sides by -2 gives: \[ 7m = 8n \] ### Step 5: Find the ratio \(m:n\) From the equation \(7m = 8n\), we can express the ratio \(m:n\): \[ \frac{m}{n} = \frac{8}{7} \] Thus, the ratio \(m:n\) is: \[ m:n = 8:7 \] ### Step 6: Calculate \(\frac{m^2 + n^2}{m^2 - n^2}\) Using the ratio \(m:n = 8:7\), we can find \(m^2\) and \(n^2\): \[ m^2 = (8k)^2 = 64k^2 \quad \text{and} \quad n^2 = (7k)^2 = 49k^2 \] ### Step 7: Substitute into the expression Now substitute \(m^2\) and \(n^2\) into the expression: \[ \frac{m^2 + n^2}{m^2 - n^2} = \frac{64k^2 + 49k^2}{64k^2 - 49k^2} \] ### Step 8: Simplify the expression This simplifies to: \[ \frac{113k^2}{15k^2} = \frac{113}{15} \] ### Final Answers (i) The ratio \(m:n\) is \(8:7\). (ii) The value of \(\frac{m^2 + n^2}{m^2 - n^2}\) is \(\frac{113}{15}\). ---
