Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply each component of the matrices by the scalar, that is

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-4a\\-4b\\\end{array}\right][/tex] = [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}180\\-510\\\end{array}\right][/tex]

Equate corresponding elements, that is

- 4a = 180 ⇒ a = - 45

- 4b = - 510 ⇒ b = 127.5

Hence

[tex]\frac{a}{b}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{45}{127.5}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{6}{17}[/tex] → A
