Answer:

The multiplicative inverse is -5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplicative inverse means we want to end up with 1

-3/5 * what =1

Multiply by 5 to clear the fraction

-3/5 * what *5 = 1*5

-3 * what = 5

Divide by -3 to isolate what

-3*what /-3 = 5/-3

what = -5/3

The multiplicative inverse is -5/3

The equation x 2 + 10 x + 25 = 0 has one solution.

Natalija [7]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

X2+10x+25=0

So let's solve

10=5,5

25=5,5

So let's continue

X2+5x+5x+25

Let's factorise

X(x+5)+5(x+5)=0

(X+5)(x+5)=0

X+5=0

Substrate 5 from both sides

X=-5(twice)

So the answer is yes
