Answer:we multiply by the reciprocal of a fraction when completing a division problem because it is a rule in mathematics that when you divide two fraction, you change the division sign to multiplication and flip the fraction at the right of the multiplication sign.
Step-by-step explanation:
For example if you have 4÷ 1/2. It basically means how many 1/2 can one get in 4. And the answers is 8.
Therefore multiplying by the reciprocal of a fraction when completing a division problem is a short cut method that has been tested and proven to be correct.
-7x + 6y =5
x intercept. y=0
-7(x) + 6(0)=5
x=-5/7
y intercept, x=0
-7(0)+6(y) =5
y=5/6
Answer
l =5
w =2
Area of Rectangle= l × w
= 5 × 2 = 10

Step-by-step explanation:
8) red and 1, red and 2, red and 3, blue and 1, blue and 2, blue and 3
So answer is 6
9) 0.5*1/3 = 0.17
10) 0.5*2/3 = 0.33
