How do I solve 1/8x=5

Mathematics

1/8x = 5

1/8x = 5/1

Take reciprocal of both sides

8x/1 = 1/5

8x = 1/5              Divide both sides by 8

x = 1/5 ÷ 8

x = 1/5 * 1/8

x = 1/40

You multiply both sides by the reciprocal (flip fraction) 
1/8--->8/1=8
So now multiply both sides by 8
1/8*8=0 (cancels out) 
x=5*8
x=40

                 x
                                100 m
Solving for x,  x = ------------- = 10^(-4) m, or [10^(-1)] * [10^(-3))]
                                10^6
this comes out to one tenth of 1 millimeter.

Write any Quetion for the following transformation of Y equals X a vertical compression by factor of 1/4
irina [24]
Suppose that X is a vertical segment that lies on the y-axis with its beginning at origin and ending at the point (0,4). Then the length of this segment is 4 units.
If you vertically compress this segment by factor of 1/4 with the centre of compression at the origin, you recieve a segment that also lies on the y-axis with its beginning at origin and ending at the point (0,1) (the length of this image segment is 1 unit).
So, the question is: if a segment that lies on the y-axis with its beginning at origin and ending at the point (0,4) is vertically compressed <span>by factor of 1/4 with the centre of compression at the origin, what is the image of this transformation?
