Please try to follow me, as I demonstrate a method of solution. 
This could get complicated.  I'll try to go slowly, and you must
stop me if I do anything that's not clear.

Ready ?

You said that                    -5c/8  =    20

Multiply each side by  8:  -5c     =  160

Divide each side by  5 :   - c      =    32

Multiply each side by -1 :   c      =  -32

Hey there!

A reciprocal might be an unfamiliar vocab word, but the concept is really quite simple.

It's just a flipped fraction! Multiplying the flipped fraction by it's reciprocal gets you one, and that's how you check your answer.

So we have:

Reciprocal of 9/10 is 10/9, because 9/10 times 10/9 = 90/90 = 1

Reciprocal of 1/11 is 11/1, because 1/11 times 11/1 = 11/11 = 1

Reciprocal of 10(remember, it's 10/1) is 1/10, because 10/1 times 1/10 = 10/10 = 1

Hope this helps!

Answer:

x + 2(2x-4) = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we want to select which is the correct answer if we substitute for the value of y in the second equation, using the first.

In the first, we have;

y = 2x -4

Now, let’s input this value of y into the second equation.

By direct substitution, what we have is the following;

x + 2y = 10

—-> x + 2(2x -4) = 10

The following is the converse of a conditional statement. If it is not April 17th, then it is not Matt's birthday. What is the i
user100 [1]
<span>The original statement would remove the two "not" values from the converse, giving "If it is April 17th, then it is Matt's birthday." Similarly, to find the inverse of the original conditional, simply flip the two statements. As such, the inverse would read "If it is Matt's birthday, then it is April 17th."</span>

Scale on map is Lin 86 mi if actual distance is 35 mi . Between two cities how far apart on the map are they
Mrac [35]

Answer:

0.41 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale on the map is 1 in 86 mi.

This means that, 1 cm on the map represents 86 miles in real life, or on earth.

Then we're told that in real life, a distance is 35 miles, and how far they are on the map.

If 1 cm equals 86 miles, then we can say that x cm equals 35 miles

1 cm ----> 86

x cm ----> 35

x * 86 = 35 * 1

x = 35 / 86

x = 0.41 cm

Therefore, they must be 0.41 cm farther or closer apart on the map scale.
