Answer:
Suppose we have a random number A.
The multiplicative inverse of A is a number X such that:
A*X = 1
When we work with real numbers, X = 1/A
Then:
A*(1/A) = A/A = 1
This means that (1/A) is the multiplicative inverse of A.
Where we need to have A ≠ 0, because we can not divide by 0.
Now we want to find the multiplicative inverse of the numbers:
2: Here the inverse is (1/2) = 0.5
1/5: Here the inverse is (1/(1/5)) = (5/1) = 5
-4: Herre the inverse is (1/(-4)) = -(1/4) = -0.25
Answer:
7:9
Step-by-step explanation:
Just divide 35 and 45 by 5.
Answer:
$42.50
Step-by-step explanation:
discount reduces the price of the good
discount value = 15% x 50 = 0.15 x 50 = 7.5
sales price = 50 - 7.5 = 42.50
