1 answer:

3 0

A number being divided by a number would be the same as a number multiplied by the reciprocal of the other number.

Reciprocal: the “flip” of a fraction (ex. the reciprocal of 6/7 is 7/6)

Example:
5/6 / 1/6
= 5/6*6/1
=30/6
=5

We can apply the same to the question 1/5 / 3.

1/5 / 3
=1/5*1/3
=1/15

I hope this helps! Please comment if you have any questions.

The table represents a liner function. What is the slope of the function?

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The slope is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use the slope formula to calculate the slope of this function. Remember, slope equals rise over run, or the difference between y coordinates divided by the difference between x coordinates of 2 points on the graph.

Let's use the last 2 points in the table: (1, 7) and (2, 10)

$\frac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1} }$
