Prove a/b is less than b/a when 0 < a <b

Mathematics

enyata [817]3 years ago
7 0

\frac{a}{b} < \frac{b}{a} \implies \\ a^2 < b^2 \implies a-b

We are given that 0<a<b, which means that 0>-a>-b if you multiply it by -1, which means what's given by our inequality is true and we are done.

Over [174]

Answer:

2 gigabytes of data

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Amount Jason keeps per month = $68.90

Cost of flat per month = $60.50

Balance for data = 68.90-60.50

Balance for data = $8.40

If 1Gigabyte = $4

x = $8.40

Cross multiply

4x = 8.40

x = 8.40/2

x = 2.20

Hence Jason can only use 2 gigabytes of data while staying within his budget
