To divide rational numbers, you turn the division problem into a multiplication problem by flipping the second rational number. Then you go ahead and multiply the tops and bottoms together to get your answer. If you can simplify your problem before multiplication, you can go ahead and do so to make your problem easier.

A rational number is one which can be represented using fractions. The opposite of division is multiplication and vice versa. Knowing this information, you can easily go about turning a division of two fractions into the multiplication of two fractions.
Ex.
(1/2) / (3/4) = ?
multiply the denominator of your fraction by the reciprocal of the denominator.
(1/2)*(4/3) / (3/4)*(4/3)
(4/6) / 1 = 4/6
So when dividing rational numbers, you can multiply the denominator by its reciprocal. This would be an example of converting a division problem into a multiplication one

The true statements about the triangles RST and DEF are: (a), (d) and (e)

<h3>How to determine the true statements?</h3>

The statement ΔRST ≅ ΔDEF means that the triangles RST and DEF are congruent.

This above implies that:

  • The triangles can be mapped onto each other by rigid transformations such as reflection, translation and rotation
  • The transformation does not include dilation
  • Corresponding sides are congruent

The above means that the possible true statements are: (a), (d) and (e)

solong [7]

Answer:

Solution given:

a.

tn=12-n

1 st term =12-1=11

2nd term =12-2=10

3rd term=12-3=9

4th term=12-4=8

10th term=12-10=2

b.

tn=5-2n

1st term=5-2*1=3

2nd term=5-2*2=1

3rd term=5-2*3=-1

4th term=5-2*4=-3

10th term=5-2*10=-15

How do I solve 5x - 4 = -19
ira [324]
Undo what has been done to the variable. That means to do the opposite done to the variable.
5x-4=-19
+4=+4
5x=-15
5 is being multiplied to the variable so you divide it from both sides.
x=-3
