First lets do the math...
-72 / -9 = 8

the reciprocal of a number is just flipping the number.
example : the reciprocal of 2/3 = 3/2.....the reciprocal of 6/7 = 7/6...and when u have a whole number, put it over 1...

so the reciprocal of 8, or 8/1 is gonna be 1/8 <==

or u could do it this way...
reciprocal of -72 / -9 = -9 / -72, which equals 1/8

Andrew is painting a wall on the side of his house. He has a 20 foot ladder wich makes a 79 degree angle with the ground. Standi
torisob [31]

Andrew can reach a maximum of 24.6ft high up the wall.

The right-angled triangle formed can be solved using the sine ratio. that is

sin(72^\circ})=\dfrac{h}{20}

where h is the distance from the foot of the wall to the tip of the ladder where it rests on the wall. Substituting, and solving for h, we get

0.9816=\dfrac{h}{20}\\\\h=20\times0.9816\\\\h=19.632ft

Since Andrew can reach an extra 5ft above the point where the ladder rests against the wall, the maximum height Andrew can paint is

(19.632+5)ft=24.632ft\\\\\approx24.6ft

You sell instruments at a Caribbean music festival. You earn $326 by selling 12 sets of maracas, 6 sets of claves, and x
IrinaK [193]
326=12m+6c+x The reason your x does not have a number is because it is unknown so in order to solve for x you need to get rid of the 12m+6c so in order to that you can divide it on both sides so you would get 326/12m+6c=x the divide your numbers 18.1=x but you cant have a tenth of a djembe drum so you would have to round up to 19.
