How do you find the reciprocal of 3.6?? ...?

Mathematics
1 answer:
laiz [17]4 years ago

<span>you can turn 3.6 into a fraction, and then switch the numerator and denominator: 3.6 = 3.6/1 = 36/10
the reciprocal is
10/36 = 5/18
reduced the fraction by dividing the top and bottom by 2 
you could ALSO say the reciprocal of:
3.6/1 is 1/3.6,
but i assume you're supposed to come up with a nice fraction...</span>

How do u solve two points using the distance formula?
aliya0001 [1]

Step-by-step explanation:

For two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂), the distance between them is:

d² = (x₁ − x₂)² + (y₁ − y₂)²

The order of points 1 and 2 don't matter.  You can switch it:

d² = (x₂ − x₁)² + (y₂ − y₁)²

This is basically the Pythagorean theorem for a coordinate system.

Let's do an example.  If you have points (1, 2) and (4, 6), then the distance between them is:

d² = (4 − 1)² + (6 − 2)²

d² = 3² + 4²

d² = 9 + 16

d² = 25

d = 5

If you have points with negative coordinates, remember that subtracting a negative is the same as adding a positive.

For example, the distance between (-1, -2) and (4, 10) is:

d² = (4 − (-1))² + (10 − (-2))²

d² = (4 + 1)² + (10 + 2)²

d² = 5² + 12²

d² = 25 + 144

d² = 169

d = 13

If y varies inversely with x and y=2 when x=5, what is the value of x when y=3?
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Method

Inversely in this sentence means

y = k/x    

So you first step is to find the value of k. You do that by setting up an inverse relationship with y = 2 , x = 5

2 = k/5                     Multiply both sides by 5

2*5 = 5*k/5

10 = k

Now you are able to answer the question.

  • k = 10
  • y = 3
  • x = ?

y = 10/x

3= 10/x                      Multiply both sides by x

3*x = x * 10/x

3x = 10                      Divide both sides by 3

3x/3 = 10/3

x = 3.33 or x = 3 1/3

Answer

x = 3.33 or x = 3  1/3

Okay so i know g(x)= 3k-2x² and g(-3)=-6
USPshnik [31]

g(x)= 3k-2x²

g(-3)=-6 ____(1)

So, using (1),

-6 = g(-3)

=> -6 = 3k - 2(-3)²

=> -6 = 3k - 2(9)

=> -6 = 3k - 18

=> -6 +18 = 3k

=> 12 = 3k

=> 12/3 = k

=> 4 = k

Now, you can find g(n) for any number n, as now we know the value of k. Specify the value of x, if you want to know what is g(x).
