Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

first we turn ur mixed number into an improper fraction

1 1/4 = 5/4

the reciprocal of 5/4 can be found by just flipping it....so the reciprocal is gonna be 4/5

so 1 1/4 subtracted from its reciprocal is :

4/5 - 5/4 =

16/20 - 25/20 =

X = 5 -3 x is not quadratic what is the reason

OleMash [197]

Answer:Although the Quadratic Formula always works as a strategy to solve quadratic equations, for many problems it is not the most efficient method. Sometimes it is faster to factor or complete the square or even just "out-think" the problem. For each equation below, choose the method you think is most efficient to solve the equation and explain your reason. Note that you do not actually need to solve the equation. a. x2+7x−8=0x

+7x−8=0, b. (x+2)2=49(x+2)

=49, c. 5x2−x−7=05x

−x−7=0, d. x2+4x=−1x

+4x=−1.
