The numbers -1/5 and -5 are 'negative reciprocals.' True or False?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Maslowich3 years ago

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

The negative reciprocal of -1/5 would be 5, and the negative reciprocal of -5 is 1/5. A way to double-check is all negative reciprocals add to -1.

-1/5 + -5= -5 1/5

Hope this helps and you understand negative reciprocals more for future problems ahead.

I need help its math
Degger [83]

Given: w²+9=6w [0, 3, 6, 9]

We need to substitute each number for w and find which works

Sub Zero: 0²+9=6×0

Simplify: 9=0. 9 does not equal 0, so it is not 0

Sub Three: 3²+9=6×3

Simplify: 9+9=18

Addition: 18=18

The statement 18=18 is true, therefore we have our answer.

Answer: The second option is correct. 3 would be the correct number to substitute to make the equation correct.
