Answer:

  (C)  9/5

Step-by-step explanation:

There are several ways to go at this. Here's one of them.

Multiply the second equation by 9/9, then substitute for 9y from the first equation.

  (9y)/(9z) = 7/5

  (7x)/(9z) = 7/5

Now, multiply by 9/7.

  x/z = (9/7)(7/5) = (9·7)/(5·7)

  x/z = 9/5
