Answer:

\text{Inverse property of multiplication: For all real numbers except }0,\text{ }a\cdot 1/a=1

Explanation:

These are the examples given to illustrate the inverse property of multiplication:

         1/5\cdot 5=1\\\\ \sqrt{2}\cdot (1/\sqrt{2})=1

And you must complete the statement to describe the property.

  • Inverse property of multiplication: For all real numbers except __, a • __ = 1.

In the first example, 1/5 and 5 are reciprocal numbers of each other, also known as multiplicative inverses. And the example is showing that the product of 1/5 and its reciprocal is 1.

In the second example,    \sqrt{2}\text{ and }(1/\sqrt{2})    are reciprocal of each other. Again, the example is showing that the product of those a number at its reciprocal is 1.

That is a general <em>property</em>, that can be written as:

             a\cdot 1/a=1

That property is satisfied by any number except 0, because the reciprocal of    0  , i.e.    1/0    is not defined.

Then, the statemen is:

\text{For all real numbers except }0,\text{ }a\cdot 1/a=1

To make a specific hair dye, a hair stylist uses a ratio of 1 1/8 oz of red tone, 3/4 oz of gray
nadezda [96]

Answer:

We can call the amounts of red, gray, and brown dye 1 1/8x, 3/4x and 5/8 x respectively and we can write the equation:

1 1/8x + 3/4x + 5/8x = 20

2 1/2x = 20

x = 8 which means that the stylist needs 1 1/8 * 8 = 9 oz red, 3/4 * 8 = 6 oz gray and 5/8 * 8 = 5 oz brown.
