The answer would be -3/2
A reciprocal is the inverse of a number.
When using this in fractions just switch the numerator and denominator. This is done by dividing the fraction by one, but in the case of a negative fraction you would divide by negative 1.
Answer:
x = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
In both questions you want to get the x alone.
1.
-3x + (-6) = 9
First you want to add 6 to both sides so you'll be left with:
-3x = 15
Next, you want to divide both sides by -3 and you'll get:
x = -5
2.
-4x + (-12) = 8
You want to do the same thing as the first one so you'll add 12 to both sides:
-4x = 20
Then, you will divide both sides by -4 and get:
x = -5
That she needs to follow the recipe to make some good trail mix for her friends!!!!
So perimeter is equal to 2 lengths and 2 width so the equation would be P=2L+2W. you know width so you plug in 5 for W then solve for L and you should get L=3
8 blocks because 2/10=1/5 so if they total 4/5 then 2/10+2/10+2/10+2/10=8/10=4/5
