To find the reciprocal of a number or fraction, just flip the numerator and denominator. Whole numbers are always over 1. 

 2 = \frac{2}{1}

The reciprocal of \frac{2}{1} =  \frac{1}{2} or .5 (one-half)

The reciprocal of \frac{3}{8} =  \frac{8}{3}

The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

8/19.

Explanation:

2 3/8 can be written as 1 + 1 + 3/8. Each whole number 1 can then be written as a fraction, 8/8:

8/8 + 8/8 + 3/8 = 16/8 + 3/8 = 19/8

The reciprocal is found by flipping the fraction; this makes it 8/19.

erastova [34]

<u>Answer:</u>

"It is used when you solve an equation in algebra" is the untrue statement.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

"It is used when you solve an equation in algebra."

When you solve an algebra problem, you are not using deductive reasoning. You are using the information in front of you to correctly answer.

"It is used to make broad generalizations using specific observations."

This is exactly what deductive reasoning is, you are making generalizations and coming up with your own conclusions through observation.

"It is used to prove basic theorems."

This is also true, you can use deductive reasoning by using your specific observations and drawing conclusions to prove the theorems.

"It is used to prove that statements are true."

Using your own observations, you can draw your own conclusions to prove what you are saying is factual.

A sequence is defined recursively using the formula f(n + 1) = -0.5f(n). If the first term of the sequence is 120, what is f(5)?
PolarNik [594]

Answer: 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The given formula tells us that the next term f(n+1) of the sequence is -0.5 times the previous term f(n)

First term of the sequence is f(1) = 120

Second term of the sequence is f(2) = f(1+1) = -0.5 f(1) = -0.5 (120) = -60

Third term of the sequence is f(3) = f(2+1) = -0.5 f(2) = -0.5 (-60) = 30

Fourth term of the sequence is f(4) = f(3+1) = -0.5 f(3) = -0.5 (30) = -15

Fifth term of the sequence is f(5) = f(4+1) = -0.5 f(4) = -0.5 (-15) = <em>7.5</em>
