The reciprocal of 3/8 would be 8/3 (basically reversing the numbers).
When dividing fractions, you can just multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction instead of dividing by the second fraction.
3/4 ÷ 3/8
= 3/4 × 8/3
Simplifying gives us the final answer:
= 2
Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!
Answer:
(-6,-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
The first endpoint of the line is (-6,8), we can call
x_1 = -6
and
y_1 = 8
Let the last endpoint have coordinates (x_2,y_2)
Also, the midpoint formula is:
(x_1+x_2)/2 , (y_1+y_2)/2
Now, plugging these values is the formula, we get:
(-6+x_2)/2 = -6
-6+x_2=-12
x_2=-12+6 = -6
x_2 = -6
Also
(8+y_2)/2=2
8+y_2=4
y_2=4-8=-4
y_2 = -4
The coordinates of the other endpoint is (-6,-4)
I don't really speak Spanish but I'll guess that says
How do I solve y = 1 - 2.5
Unless I'm missing something, there's not even any algebra here.
The way we subtract a bigger number from a smaller number is first we subtract the smaller number from the bigger number the regular way, then we prepend a minus sign.
y = 1 - 2.5 = -(2.5 - 1) = -1.5
