I believe the correct answer is 15x + 5y =-1 but im not positive cause i did the problem and got -1 but the equation i got looks different i got the equation -15x + 5y = -1
These are the steps i followed
You always begin by the Given equation, which is in this case:
y+ = 3x
To remove the fraction, you multiply the whole equation by 5:
5y + 1 = 15x
Then, you move the "15x" the left-side of the equation, changing it's sign
-15x + 5y +1 = 0
You move the "1" to the right side, changing it's sign
-15x + 5y = -1
D. 64, because 8x16 is 128, and that divided by 2 is 64. ;)
Answer:
$0
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Amelia reported the loss before the fraudulent charges so Amelia will pay $0 because she immediately reported and the transaction was done after her report.
First of all, you know that a fraction is smaller than 1 if the top number is smaller than the bottom. It works both ways, meaning that if the top number is larger than the bottom number, the fraction is greater than 1.
So, for example, a fraction less than 1 can be expressed as
(x-1)/x
because the top number is smaller than the bottom number.
The reciprocal can be found by flipping the top and the bottom, so the reciprocal is
x/(x-1)
x is always greater than x-1, so in the reciprocal, the top number will be larger than the bottom number. That means it will always be greater than 1.
Hope this helps!
