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

A 17.2 gallon gasoline tank is 1/2 full. How many gallons will it take to fill the tank?
love history [14]

Answer:

8.6

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the tank is filled halfway, and it can hold 17.2 gallons, so we can just divide to figure out how much is half the tank (the amount we need to fill it)

17.2 / 2 = 8.6

We can check our work by multiplying

8.6 x 2 = 17.2

So it would take 8.6gal to fill it up. I hope this helps :)

What value is added to both sides of the equation x2 − 8x = −10 in order to solve by completing the square?−816−44?
Artyom0805 [142]
Do you see -8x?

Take half of -8 and square it.

So, (-8)/2 = -4.

(-4)^2 = 16

Now add 16 to both sides.
