5x + 10 = -4x - 17 
 +4x          +4x

5x + 4x = 9x

9x + 10 = -17
      -10     -10

-27

9x = -27        9x/9 = -27/9

x = -3

this is how you solve for x;

5x + 10 = -4x -17

5x + 4x + 10 = -4x +4x -17 (add 4x on both sides)

9x + 10 = -17

9x +10-10 = -17 -10 (subtract 10 on both sides)

9x = - 27 (next do the inverse operation of x)

x = -27 ÷ 9

x = -3

What is the reciprocal of 6/5? <br> A. 1 <br> B. 1 1/5 <br> C. 12/10 <br> D. 5/6
Sergio039 [100]
The reciprocal of 6/5 is D. 5/6

Reciprocal simply means swapping the position of the numbers in the fraction. The numerator becomes the denominator and the denominator becomes the numerator.

We need to get reciprocal of a fraction when division is performed.

For example: 2 ÷ 1/5

2 may be a whole number but in fraction form it is 2/1.

1st fraction = 2/1
2nd fraction = 1/5

In dividing fractions, the 1st step we need to do is to get the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction.

1/5 ⇒ 5/1

Then, we multiply the 1st fraction to the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction.
2/1 * 5/1 = 10

So, 2 ÷ 1/5 = 10
